On this error read out - battery could be the problem is its battery operated - try hard wire to the wall outlet if u have a adaptor or maybe new batteries- of course the heads in the machine could be out of alignment- try another CD- do the easy steps first- if the walkman is real old, maybe its time for a new one if all other issues fail to solve problem -- also u could open machine up to see if a wire is burnt or has become loose. solder joints sometimes let go or a wire breaks

another thing to do is listen to the unit as it spins up, you may be able to hear the disk spinning (though you can definitly see it if you open it up) and you should also be able to hear the mechanism that moves the optics allong the rail. If you hear that but still no read, you might try opening up the case (6 small phillips screws and then a small bit of prying to open) and look to see if the small thin plastic wireing harness is fully seated in the connector on the main board. If not loosen the small brown retaining clip and push the plastic strap with the traces fully into to connector and push the retaining clip back in. I have fixed 2 d-nf420 units this way.

There is a switch on the bottom of the unit that puts it in "HOLD" mode. My guess its for use when it is shipped so there will be less chance of damage. Try switching the two position switch to the other position.
