My LG DVD player will not play ANY dvds as of last nite. We watched a DVD, and then put some CDs on, now it wo

Question

n't play a DVD, but it still plays the CDs. Nothing was done to it. It reads the CD in a second, but just tries and tries to read DVDs, then just says NO DISC everytime

NOTE: I tried EVERY different kind of DVD I have - audio, video, store bought ones, burned, etc. - NOTHING.

Question is - what could be wrong? are there seperate lasers for the CD/DVD or are they on the same?

Answer 1

if you have your receipt good, package it back up and take it back to the place you got it from for an exchange or a refund.

Answer 2

Yes, there are two laser diode assemblies in your unit, one for CD and the other for DVD. It sounds like the DVD laser is failing.

There isn't much you can do. You can try unplugging your player from power for a couple minutes and plugging it back in. A reboot may help, but if not, you'll need to replace it.
