Astro in-car DVD player

We have just purchased a car with an Astor DVD player and do not know how to get the sound through the speakers. It did not have a manual with it and doesn't have any other serial numbers or description other than the word Astor on it.Can anyone help?

The DVD player must have audio and video output jacks if so use an RCA connector if the player supports this and conncet the other end to some speakers and a video monitor you should have picture and sound. This will determine if the unit is even working. If the unit is not working you may have to remove the unit from the car to do a proper inspection of the conductors to determine which ones are power and which ones are speaker and other functions. The best bet would be that the red and black are you B+ and ground return conductors. If you are able to open it up you will find that the wires go to various parts of the unit. Now this is where things can get "hinkey", I want you to follow the conncetion from the components connected to the heat sink. The heat sink will either be part of the chassis or a separate piece of finned metal the component that we are looking for will either be screwed to this piece of metal or pressed up against it by some kind of clip or restraint. This will be your voltage regulator or your final stage power amplifier which will connect to your speaker wires, you should have two of these components. At this point if you have traced your wires you know know what conductors are power and which ones are audio. Take these wires and connect them to your speakers. connect your power wires and turn the system on, you should hear sound from your DVD playing. iF not the unit is damaged and is in need of professional repair.

Have lenoxx ht 500 surround sound speakers & dvd but dvd is broken, need to purchase another dvd player but can't source lenoxx model, what other models can i connect surround sound to? or whe
If your surround sound receiver unit has rca audio inputs(red/white), you can hook up any brand of DVD player that has rca outputs. You would hook the yellow output from DVD player to yellow input on TV. Hook red/white output from DVD player to red/white input on surround receiver. Hope this helps.

2002 Astor Van will not start it turn over fine . I checked the fuses under the hood and the panal all where good.But I am not hearing the fuel pump on it when I turn the key to the on spot.
Did you check the fuel pump fuse? It's often all by itself, and not in the fusebox. This is the case on Chevy/GMC C/K trucks, it might be similar on the Astro van.

I have a JVC DVD player that doesnt come with surround sound but i have surround sound speakers is there something I can buy so that I am able to use the speakers
If you have surround speakers with a surround system, then connect the Player to the surround system using for example RCA cables (White and Red).

If you have speakers only, connecting many speakers to a non-surround system won't give you surround.
In surround systems the sound is controlled, elaborated and distributed through the speakers by a circuit.

If you wnt surround sound the alternatives are :

  1. Connecting a surround system (eg.Home theater, receiver) to the player (amp+speakers)
  2. Upgrading the DVD to one with surround.
Let me know if you need more help.

bye.

Hi.... I have purchased Creative inspire 5200 speakers arround 2 yrs back. i was told that it can be used for DVD players & Home theaters also. Yesterday i purchased DVD player which has an out put port...
Without knowing the DVD player I can't advise you. Because I don't know what the "port" is on the DVD.
The creative uses colour coded cables for the channels. What you will need is an adaptor cable, if the DVD player does not have individual sockets, like a computer has.

Car DVD player will only play sound through wireless headphones, not through speakers
We have a GMC Envoy which also does not allow us to play the sound from the dvd player through the car's speakers. Although we purchased the vehicle new with the dvd player already installed, it was installed by the dealer, making it after-market. I assume those that were installed in the factory work differently. Maybe this is the case with your's as well. Good luck!!
