Dvd player will not open.

TV built in DVD

Just for you Sapphire Lopez,

I went out ... into the quite bizarre ... cold cruel world of DVD/TV combo sets ... If you don't have your owners manual... either reveal it to us or put it plus your model number on the internet...
manualslib.com seems to be pretty good

One person stuck a post card in & got it to trip... FRANKLY... Unless you are ready to TRASH your unit... that'd be a no no...

Disc readers are pretty fragile ...

Another recommended unplugging for 5 minutes...

I'd sugest

flash-light... and look real closely around the edges for menu or the eject button

Buy that new remote

Look over the old remote:
Clean the contacts with a soft graphite pencil "lead"... or a tiny bit of white vinegar on a Q-tip
(dry all excess).

Put a tiny but of lithium grease (or even Vaseline) on the metal
(wipe away all excess)... Insert fresh batteries & give it another try (if for sure its dry.... only a matter of open air (no batteries).

(if you put in a specific TV/DVD model...
it did NOT make it out this end )

Comment me back... I can expound voluminously... as you prefer

my dvd 's will not go into slot. Dvd says it is closed and no dvd. I have unplugged tv, opened and closed dvd and it will not open. What do I do?

Straighten a paperclip. On the face of most disk players there is a small hole. Push the paper clip into the hole, and the disk tray should release. Pull the tray out to it's full extension. Power being on or off is immaterial. Hope this help.

Unplug it and wait 5min plug it back in and sometines it will work, I have three units they all do the same thing , with two of them the unpluging no longer works. I can't find anyone who knows whats wrong either

Do you see the open close icon ont the screen? Do you hear any motors running? Most common problem for this is the mech jumps time

The hello issue is most likely a faulty DVD-RW. These go out on thse models more than usual. Reset is a combination of 2 buttons. Press and hold the play and disk tray open or the power and play ( i forgot the exact sequence but you get my drift, press 2 buttons for about 10 seconds). You can also update the firmware...or atleast could before from RCA.COM but they no longer support this midel. I do have the software update on CD but it won't do any good on Hello issue. If worst comes to worst, open the player up and replace the DVD-RW drive.

Hi there!
The drive belt that controls the tray probably snapped. Not sure about the mech on your set, but you can try and see wether you can lift the front cover of the tray slightly. Check to see if you can see a gear inside, using something thin you can try to manually turn that gear from right to left or the other way until the tray opens just enough for you to pull it open. If this is not possible, please refer to a repair technician. Please unplug mains from the wall before you check. Good Luck, Regards, JUS004

I had to unplug mine from the wall, then make sure the TV is off, and hit the open button.

The power circuit for the DVD and the vcr are separate look for a open diode and transistor in the circuit that supply the DVD.GOOD LUCK.

Hi, The problem may be mechanical or electronic. If the drawer is stuck from being bent or jammed it is mechanical. If the system controlling IC circuit is defective, then it is electronic. If it is still under warranty the factory should be responsible for it. If it is not under warranty, the cost of repair is likely to be more than the price of a new dvd player! Sorry, Daniel
