Dvd plays dvd but door will not open what do i do?

look for a tiny hole in the dvd door; insert a straightened paperclip into the hole; push in; the door will open then clean the laser lens with a dvd cleaning disk by running the disk in the machine

It won't play for one of two reasons:
1. There is something inside the DVD player, which keeps it from playing.
2. The DVD player's battery has run out of juice and can no longer play, meaning the player needs to be replaced.

replace the dvd rom

On the front of most DVD players there is a button with EJECT printed under it.

The same button is normally on remotes.

Try pressing this button.

there is a switch connected to the dvd door you should see a pin hole in the casing, a pin on the door pushes this down to say the lid is closed they are common to brake off and then the dvd play does not know the door is shut. this video should help you locate the switch https://youtu.be/ucNedtR256g

the inter relay swich on the door is molfushing,or the open and close butten is bad'', try closeing the door and at the same time that the door close's unplug the power and then plug it back in after a few seconds and see what happens it my stay closed and then you can play it,, and it my stop doing that ''if not you will have to take it in to a repare shop'''' my names is ''james ''' let me know if this works for you''' you can e-mail ' me back at '' [email protected] .

I opened the DVD door and something looked crooked... I pushed it down to straighten it... it clicked back into place and it works great! haha. I bought it off craigslist for only $15.. great deal. :)

open the door then unplug the unit remove the cover then remove the DVD

remove the player from ur car and if you are good at opening the player then just follow this steps...
1.take of the screws
2.remove the cover
3.take off the rubber belt connecting the dc motor
4. now you can take the door out by sliding one white coloured clip
5.now clean the obstacles in the door way and every where
use dry clothes..
6.clean the lens also by using the white petrol or spirit....

then reassemble just put the cd r dvd and play...
if you are not good at opening then contact the technician........

It is called the slider assy. The slider moves the laser assy back to home or start position. It is a small belt underneath or there is gunk or hair in the gear mechanism. A very common problem with CD/DVD players/recorders. Very good though that you saw it was not comming back to home place. I wish I had a manual to assist you but I do not. Im telling you the most common problems with the slider mechanism. Good Lck
