Cannot continue to play klh dvd8350

Do you have a lens cleaning disc, if so play it. That should do the job. Also confirm if it plays audio Cd's. If it plays audio CD's it will confirm that the loading tray is Ok and all the motors are functional.
All DVD players use a dual laser pick up. One is for Audio CD's / VCD's/MP3 and the other is for DVD. If you have been playing more than 1000 hours of DVD the laser unit itself could have failed. Any try the cleaning disc first. A replacement laser unit could cost you 20$ plus service charges.

Check the disc,see if it dirty or cracks?Tries it,with other DVD disc,same result.Ur DVD player have a bad Laser eye data's readers.Not,worth fixing as u know totay DVD players are really cheap,these days.U can get a brand new DVD player for like $40.

Hello,

how long have you been using the player? Does it play VCD and Audio disc presently?

I think the reason your player is not reading the DVD plate is because the lens (laser) is weak.

You need to have it cleaned with lens cleaner and try again.

Take care.

the problem is dirty lens, try use a dvd/vcd lens cleaner, or manually clean the lens using damp cotton buds.

Hi,

Appreciate the direct "Ask Me".

To my knowledge, a KLH DVD8350 is only a player, it has no recording capabilities, sorry.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

remove cover. move lense outward with finger. Clean lense with rubbing alcohol or eye drop fluid. Wipe dry with other end. Works great now

same problem with component video cables... fine with composite

you have dirty lens, try to cleaning with 100% cotton buds. or you have damage laser eye, or broken flex ribbon wire, but first you have to do is to cleaning the lens with cotton buds.. if not reading after you clean the lens! change the laser eye and flex ribbon wire.

sounds like you have a problem with the laser.laser has to focus a lot sharper to play dvd thus will play vcd but not dvd.Try cleaning first and if this doesnt work would suspect laser faulty,.

Try a lens cleaner cd, as when the lens gets misaligned or if it's quite old, it will find it harder to read a DVD as the tracks are much closer together than that of a VCD as they are cd's and their tracks are wider apart and easier to read.
