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.

Polaroid pdx-0758 dvd player displays "open" even though thelid is properly closed, and it will not play
If your Polaroid PDX-0758 DVD player is displaying "open" even though the lid is properly closed, there are a few potential solutions you can try:
- Check for obstructions: Make sure that there are no objects blocking the DVD tray or preventing it from closing all the way. Even small objects like dust or debris can interfere with the DVD player's operation.
- Reset the DVD player: Try unplugging the DVD player from the power outlet and waiting a few minutes before plugging it back in. This can sometimes reset the player and clear any errors that might be causing the "open" message to appear.
- Clean the DVD player: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the DVD player and remove any dust or debris that might be interfering with the player's operation.
- Try a different disc: Sometimes, a specific disc might cause the "open" message to appear. Try playing a different DVD to see if the player operates normally.
If none of these solutions work, there could be a more serious issue with the DVD player's hardware or firmware. In this case, you may need to contact Polaroid customer support or a certified repair technician for further assistance.

My polaroid TV model 3200 has vertical lines in the picture and color is a little bit off. Any solutions?
The issue you're describing with vertical lines in the picture and a color imbalance on your Polaroid TV (model 3200) could be caused by a few different issues. Some possible solutions include:
- Check the TV's cable connections: Make sure all cables (e.g. HDMI, AV, power) are securely connected to the TV and the source device (e.g. cable box, DVD player).
- Adjust the TV's settings: Check the TV's picture settings (brightness, contrast, color) and make sure they are set correctly. You can also try resetting the TV to its default settings.
- Check for interference: Ensure that there are no other electronic devices or appliances that may be causing interference with the TV's picture. Move the TV or other devices a few feet away from one another to see if the problem persists.
- Check for a faulty cable or source device: Try connecting the TV to a different source device or cable to see if the problem persists. This can help determine whether the issue is with the TV or with the cable or source device.
- Check for a hardware issue: If none of the above solutions work, the issue could be caused by a hardware problem with the TV. This could be a problem with the TV's screen or the circuit board. In this case, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a repair professional to have the TV serviced.
Please note that the age of the TV, if it's been dropped or mishandled, or if it's been exposed to extreme temperature changes or moisture, could also be a factor in the problem.

I have a polaroid portable dvd player that plays cds fine but dvds take about 5 minutes just for it to say no disc. when I put in no disc it takes 5 seconds. I've cleaned the laser and it did nothing.
It sounds like there may be an issue with the DVD drive in your Polaroid portable DVD player. This can often be caused by a malfunctioning laser or a problem with the drive itself.
Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
- Check the DVD for scratches or damage. A damaged DVD may not be able to be read by the player, causing it to take longer to recognize the disc.
- Clean the DVD drive. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the lens of the DVD drive. You can also try using a DVD drive cleaning kit, which includes a special cleaning solution and a microfiber cloth.
- Check the connections. Make sure that all of the connections between the DVD player and the TV or other display device are secure.
- Reset the player. Try unplugging the DVD player and then plugging it back in after a few minutes. This can sometimes reset the player and fix any issues.
If none of these steps help, the issue may be with the DVD drive itself. In this case, you may need to have the player serviced by a qualified technician. Alternatively, you may want to consider purchasing a new DVD player if the cost of repairing the existing one is not cost-effective.

37" Polaroid LCD TV No signal appears when select channel
I was having same problem, and think I got lucky and found fix.
Try unplugging the TV and waiting 30 seconds, then plug back in.
You will likely get blue screen with "No Signal".
Go to Menu, then scroll down to "Setup". Select "Factory Reset" then hit "Yes."
This did it for me. Wish you all luck.
