My in dash touch screen dvd player will not play a CD or DVD. It accepts the CD DVD then after a few seconds ejects it. I went to DVD CD options and I cannot even select that option. It seems like something needs to be reset. Please help! Thanks Red

Hello
There are two main reasons for this fault. The first one is confused system control section. The second one is weak Laser Pickup Unit Assembly.
Just reset the system first, to rectify if there is any system confution occured. To reset use the tip of a ball point pen to press the reset button hole, can be located at the front right corner of the player. After system reset, the unit will return to its factory default settings. If the reset is done while a DVD is playing the Dvd resumes play once the reset is complete.
Check out if it helps you or not. If not, put a cleaning disc, and play it two or more times. If there is any dust accumulation on the lens of the Laser Picup Unit, this will rectify the probelm.
If this also not rectifies the problem, the Laser Pickup Unit is defective, and needs replacent. Replace it with samy type and number. OK.
Hello
There is something wrong with either Laser Picup Unit or its connecting wire strip. There is a connector wire which goes from laser picup unit to the main board. It is a flat cable type strip wire, but not made up of metal conductors like the flat wire we use regularly. It is a carbon tracked cable, we can say, and have to move along with the laser picup unit, as it tracks the disc. There is a probabaility to get a break in these tracks, due to this movement along with the pick up unit, and it is a commom fault occurs in all types of compact disc players. If any one out of 24 or so tracks gets a break, the signal will be breaked at that point and won't reach to the main board. Just replace this strip wire carefully, and see whether it helps you or not. If it doesn't help, replace the laser Picup Unit, with same type and number. Insist on same type and number, when replacing this unit, as it is a critical component in your system. If you want furthermore assistance, feel free to contact me through fixya.
