Other Brand DVD Player: Why won’t my portable dvd player load discs?

Sun, 01 Mar 2026 23:34:10 -0700

My wonnie portable DVD player has never worked unfortunately I didn’t get the chance to return it and now I’m stuck with it. It turns on and when any dvd is put inside, it says loading. I can also hear the disc spinning but nothing ever loads. I have tried cleaning the lens with alcohol but this didn’t help. I am a complete novice in such matters but am very willing to learn how I can fix it (if it’s even possible). Anyone have any suggestions?

onkyo dv-sp502: Need Help: Onkyo DV-SP502 DVD/CD Player Won't Power On

Wed, 25 Sep 2024 06:28:15 -0700

I recently inherited a (what appears to be) minty Onkyo DV-SP502 DVD/CD player. I picked it up because it has a good DAC and can play SACDs. I hope to use it as the CD transport for my hodgepodge HIFI system.

The problem that I am facing is that the player will not power on when I plug it in. It will not turn on or go into standby mode. The person who gave it to me kept it in good condition, clean setting, and reported that it had previously worked without any problems.

My guess is that something is wrong with the power supply, perhaps? But the fuse appears to be intact and I do not have the equipment to test if a current is passing through the board. From the included pictures, does anyone have any ideas on what could be going on or what I could try to trouble shoot?

If it helps, the instruction manual does state the this player has some sort of specialized power cord that is designed to work specifically with this player—and that other power cords shouldn’t be used with it. I am not able to identify at this moment if the included power cord is the stock cable.

If you need further pictures or info, let me know. I’ll try to be responsive.

Thanks for the help!

Other Brand DVD Player: Why are the buttons on the front of my cd player not working.

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 10:18:12 -0700

[The buttons on front of this 15 year old cd player are not working. This is a high end british player I use as a transport. Not a midfi Japanese unit. I want to remove the faceplate and spray the contacts with DeoxIT gold and see if it helps the buttons work again. Any suggestions are deeply appreciated.
