I HAVE A POLAROID DVD

That broken part you refer to could be better known as the disc platter. It is part of the spindle motor in many models (it is either attached to the motor by a special compound or it is molded to the shaft).

I am not sure if this part is available or economical to replace in this model (alignment could also be a factor), a majority of service centres, once they see that the disc platter is damaged, assuming it is bonded to the motor, will declare this unit U/S.

Sadly, that is the death knell on this one. It would be cheaper and easier to buy a new player. But, as I have often posted, it is up to you. You can ask a workshop about this one, but they may say something similar to (or the same as) what is posted here.

A broken disc platter in any optical device is serious, and usually non-replaceable.

Musheer.

Polaroid TV working with constant red flashing light

If your Polaroid Roku TV is working fine but the red light is continuously flashing, it could indicate an issue that may need attention. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
  1. Power Cycle:
    • Turn off the TV and unplug it from the power source.
    • Wait for at least 5 minutes.
    • Plug the TV back in and turn it on.
  2. Check Remote Control:
    • Ensure that there are no stuck buttons on the remote control. Press each button to make sure they are not stuck in the pressed position.
  3. Update Firmware:
    • Check if there is a firmware update available for your TV. You can usually find this information in the TV's settings menu.
  4. Reset to Factory Settings:
    • Perform a factory reset on your TV. This will erase your settings, so be sure to back up any important information first.
  5. Check for Physical Obstructions:
    • Make sure there are no physical obstructions around the TV, particularly around the infrared sensor on the TV and the remote control.
  6. Contact Customer Support:
    • If the issue persists and your TV is still under warranty, consider contacting Polaroid customer support for assistance. They may be able to provide additional troubleshooting steps or offer a solution.
  7. Professional Repair:
    • If the TV is no longer under warranty and the issue persists, it might be advisable to consult a professional technician or a TV repair service to diagnose and fix the problem.
Always refer to your TV's user manual for specific instructions related to your model. If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it's recommended to seek assistance from the manufacturer or a qualified technician for further diagnosis and repair.

Polaroid TV 50". I have a fault across bottom of screen, a transparent band about 2 inches high. Can it be fixed and is it worth it?

No Model number, '50 inch' is just a size.Can it be fixed? Yes, they can all be fixed.Is it worth it? Unlikely. Polaroid are a camera maker and don't have a good name in televisions.Hopefully our television @Larry will be along to confirm.https://www.google.com/search?q=Polaroid+TV+50%22+fault+across+bottom+of+screen%2C+transparent+band+about+2+inches+high..

Can you tell me the code for a Polaroid TV for SANSAI URC-L969 universal remote please.

First is a link to a codes page. Next is a description of programming the device. The code page strikes me a little confusing about the method so that is why I provide the description of programming. Polaroid TV Universal Remote Codes & Program Instructions - Universal Remote Codes
  1. Turn on your Polaroid TV.
  2. Press and hold the SET button on your SANSAI URC-L969 universal remote until the LED light turns on.
  3. Enter the 3-digit code for your device using the number buttons on your remote. If you don't know the code, try searching for it online or contact the manufacturer of your device.
  4. Release the SET button once you've entered the code.
  5. Test if your remote is working by pressing some buttons like volume up/down or channel up/down.

On a polaroid HDTV,the volume says 100% yet we can barely hear it.Is there a way to turn it up any more?

There would not be a way to " turn it up more" chances are something is bad in the audio output circuitry, this is part of the main board, or your set may be an all in one set where there is only one board in the TV. A new board should fix the set.

How do I switch my Polaroid P40LED13 TV on to AV mode. No option in sources

If you are using the standard SNES cables with the round red, white and yellow 'Jack' plug connectors they are referred to as "Component" connections. On your remote there should be a button marked "COMP". It will probably be near the top of the remote near the Power button. This should switch the TV to the channel you need.
