The on light comes on but as soon as I press the open/close button to insert a dvd, the player turns off. This was purchased by my daughter for me. I believe she got it as one of those previously owned and repaired models because I have the manual and everything that would come with it but it was wrapped with cellophane rather than in a box so I don't know if it ever worked properly.
Press the "On" button on the remote control to turn on the DVD player.
Press the "Setup" button on the remote control.
