DVD is stuck

I have an RCA TV/DVD combo (flat panel). The DVD will not come out.

  • jquintana Aug 24, 2008

    The DVD is spinning and spinning and making a clicking noise as it's spinning. We tried to eject it but it won't eject. It's also affecting the picture on the tv. It's causing the screen to be rippled. We can't see the "belt mechanism" when we pull down the door so we can't manually help the belt release. What next??

When a DVD won't eject, the most common problem is that the belt that operates the eject mechanism is slipping and not allowing it to eject the DVD. This can be fixed by either using a re-grip solutionDVD is stuck - 1.gif on the belt or having the belt replaced. With the cover off (be careful not to touch anything live with power) try to find the motor and belt which operates the DVD loading & eject mechanism. Try moving the belt pulley with your finger to give it a little help and see if it continues on with the operation. If it does, the belt is probably slipping. It takes more effort on the belt & pulley during an eject sequence rather than the a load sequence, so it may load fine but have trouble ejecting. Gravity and the weight of the DVD is why you may not have this problem during a load sequence.
Let me know what you find and we'll go from there.

Good luck,

DVD stuck in tv combo player

There should be a very small hole or opening on or near the DVD drawer. Straighten a small paper clip to insert in the hole. It should trip the drawer open.

Dvd stuck in RCA widescreen tv

There are two things you can try to correct this problem on your TV/DVD combo unit:
  • If you're using the remote control, press the DVD/TV button first to make sure the remote control is in TV mode.
  • If you're trying to use the buttons on the front of the unit, unplug the TV/DVD for two minutes, and then plug it back in. Press the ON/OFF button and try again.

DVD stuck in tv combo unit

Had same problem! Husband took back off tv, lots of screws, unscrewed the dvd player and turned it over. There is a white wheel, turn that slowly. It opens and closes the dvd "tray". He turned it until DVD came out. Tried another DVD but no good. Had only used the DVD once since owning tv. Won't use it again.

In the past we would not buy combo units. Won't ever again!!!!
