Battery pack for model no. 8017/ curtis portable dvd/cd player

Tries websites like Partstore.com,Amazon.com,Ebay.com to buy a new battery or a clone one.

Hello,

The reason your player is not working could be as a result of a faulty power panel or the main board.

To test the panel,

open the player from the bottom with the appropriate screwdriver,

get a meter reader and test all the components of the player,

start with the power pack and the main board to see if any capacitor is faulty,

once you detect the faulty component,

replace the board,

couple the player back together,

plug the player to a power source,

ensure the power source is at the level of current the player can work with.

do not expose to a very high current.

take care.

Tries the portable DVD player website itseft?Tries Amazon.com or Ebay.com have many electronics acessorries.

Rechargeable batteries can only be recharged so many times. They begin to slowly lose their capacity after about the first 5 charges until ultimately it won't hold a charge anymore. It appears that this is your problem. Look for a model number on the battery & do a Google search for it if you want to try & replace it. You might also find it is cheaper to buy a whole new DVD player than it is to buy a replacement battery.

this will work, make sure your model number is there.

I think the DVD Player was made for Target, you might be able to go there and find one and get the info off the power supply (charger) and take the unit and the info to Radio Shack for a replacement. If they can not help try calling MCM Electronics at 1-800-543-4330

I wrote to Walmart.com. The corporate office. They contacted my local store and the store replaced my machine with a brand new magnavox even though my machine was 1 year old, Try it. They told us that customer satisfaction was guaranteed. They also told us that the company was out of business.

Give it a about 24 hours. It might need to declimatize. Also, thry charging the battery pack first and/or try turning it on with the power adapter only (battery pack off the unit). If this does nothing, they to get or borrow a voltmeter to make sure the power adapter is giving out a votage. This will troubleshoot wether it is the unit or the adapter. Let us know how it went.

Hi Sharon,
do you still need additional battery packs? the model 705 come with 2 slightly different batteries (they are not interchageable). I have 2 of the battery model BAT-05, which I will sell for $40 each + shipping. The other is an ealier model with not battery #. That one is $40 + shipping also. They all keep a good charge. email me at [email protected]
warmest regards,
