My home theatre unit bdv-L600 will not eject the DVD as it says it is locked

DVD player drawers are generally driven by a small rubber belt that either falls off or breaks. Easily fixed by just looking inside the unit and replacing the inexpensive belt.

make sure your power unit is lit up and looks normal , then ck your source selection , anyone even the Dog can make a mistake and hit the wrong button

home theaters amps that have auto power on/Off tend to get left on the lower shelf and not thought about till they no longer work , most have a ton of settings and buttons that can and will get changed for the silliest of reasons (even the dog)

There can be many problems causing this. Check to see if you have everything switched correctly, including inputs that can be analog or digital.

Try this. Disconnect the power to the unit. Plug it back in. When you first push the power button, you should hear 1 click followed by a second click within 5-10 seconds from the unit itself.

Once you have this information, if you are interested in having your Sony repaired, please contact me at my website, audioserviceclinic.com. Thank you.

try turning it on and putting it in dvd function. Then hold the stop and eject buttons for about 5 seconds. The display should read 'demo off' then you should be able to operate normally.

try this
1. Press DVD
2. Hold the magic button until the DVD button flashes twice.
3. Press 0533

4. Hold the magic button until the DVD button flashes twice.
5. Press 994
6. Press Magic Key (don't hold)

Done - the remote is now programmed and ready to use

Put the unit in dvd mode. then press and hold the stop and eject buttons. The display should read "demo off". Then the tray should operate normally.

This unit has two locks for demonstration purposes so discs can't be stolen.
Eject lock:
With the unit powered on, press and hold stop button and power button on main unit for at least three seconds until it shows unlocked.
Function lock:
With the unit powered on, press and hold play button and power button on main unit for at least three seconds until it shows unlocked.

Hope this helps.

Having browsed the user manual I wonder if you plugged in the Sony BDV T57 Home Theatre System while the Polaroid FLM-2632 tv was powered down via the optical cable .
Then powered up the Sony BDV T57 Home Theatre System first and then powered up the Polaroid FLM-2632 tv
Maybe the Polaroid FLM-2632 TV has to detect that the Sony BDV T57 Home Theatre System is connected and powered up when the Polaroid FLM-2632 powers up. To activate its digital audio out ????
The note part about only being available only under HDTV (cable/air) mode. Might be the cause of your hassle also ?

This worked for me (taken from the service manual)
Power on Unit Select Disc Then Open / Eject Then type the following...
9999 followed by *subtitle* followed by the region you want EG: Region 2 would be - 9999 *subtitle* 2
Works perfect for me :)

Hi!
I had the same problem, and I solved it by shutting down the unit and then disconnected the power supply for some sec. When re-connecting the power supply and pushing the start button the DVD was ejected when pushed the eject button.
