The "H07" is an error code, this particular error code refers to the dvd spindle drive motor. Effectively the spindle motor that spins the DVD isn't turning correctly and on occassion this can be that the spindle & bearings need lubricating due to partial siezure. But really this should only be done by somebody with a bit of technical know-how to avoid further damage to the machine or indeed an electrical injury to the person under taking the task. I can only suggest that you contact a Panasonic repair shop and to see if it is cost effective to repair.
HELLO
I have just recently posted a cure for this - but here we go again. Fault H07 is the fault code for the spindle/disc motor and to cure it do this!
With the lid of the player removed, locate the spindle and where the motor shaft goes into the motor itself, use a little light oil or WD40. Let it soak in a while and try it again - you should now find it works.
Why this works I just don't know - it just does! (:-)
Often on Panasonic DVDs, error code H07 indicates that the spindle motor is not turning. The spindle motor is relatively small and expectedly wuld develop hardware problems over time. In some cases, a temporary remedy wold be to clean and lubricate the inside of the motor. Here is my post on similar problems with spindle motors of another electronic device, while here is an illustrated how to.
Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.
I opened up by Panasonic dvd-cv52, which I purchased in Dec 2002 for H07.
The H07, based on research, indicated that the spindle motor had an issue, a post I found suggested trying some 3-in-1 oil.
I tried this and it worked (note, pop the top off firstm then power up the unit, then press the open button, then unplug the power, this will make it easier to lubricate).
Once I had done this and powere back up, I got h01.
Turns out I neglected to put back the elastic that is used to spin the carosel for the dvd's (I have a multi dvd player).
I would check to see if there is an elastic in place to spin the carosel, maybe your broke (assuming you have a multi carosel also)
I opened it up and sprayed silicone on the center where the disc snaps on. I also sprayed from a side angle to try to aim it towards bearings/works underneath. It worked!
You can reset this fault by holding in the reverse, pause, and the on-off button, all at the same time. If it comes back then the spindle motor is the bad componet, and unless you know how to disasemble a mechanism for a changer I would let a pro handle it.
The last time I opened up my Panasonic DVD-CV52, I looked at the little white bush on the motor spindle, it has a small spring which presses against the side of the bush.
I can see no purpose for this spring/bush other than to provide some drag to the motor.
Anyway, I removed the spring, so that the bush would no longer drag against the shaft, that was a few years back, and I haven't had a problem since.
Of course a temporary solution is to oil the bush! The www.ledcar.com/pdvdh07/ link mentioned above provides an excellent pictorial guide to disassemble and reassemble the player.
