Fixing code H03 is very simple but needs some courrage and small philips screw driver.
The problem arrise from the laser lamb which moves up and down the disk through a mechanical shaft. I do believe when we press the back space for long time it will take the laser lamb beyond its limit and get stuck at the end of the rotating shaft so the servo motor gets difficulty and resistance to get it back to tract.
All you have to do is open the back of the DVD player " 12 small screws"
When you remove the back cover be carful not to damage the cables .
You will find the servo motor and laser lamb on one metal structure hanged to the body by three rubber suspensions.
Remove the whole structre and turn it upside down slowly .
Move the small black rotating joints up or down you will notice the the mechanical shaft will start rotating and the laser lamb will start to move away from the servo motor relasing it from where it get stuck.
And it will work perfect after that. Return the back cover and screw the 12 screws and you are done. Good Luck.

Player does not read disc-code HO3

I followed a few, of the already suggested answers. The first one I tried was to open up the back and use compressed air to blow out lint, food crumbs and dog hair that had found there way into the machine. This seem to have worked just fine. Now the machine is working, much to my daughters delight.

Panasonic dvd player, wont play error code HO3 keeps coming up, took it back to shop they wont help as cant find receipt

On my DVD-LV50, I was able to re-initialize and fix a different error (error code H05). It might work for you, too.

With no disk in the player, press and hold these buttons for 4 seconds:
  1. Back skip -- [ |<< ]
  2. Pause -- [ || ]
  3. Play -- [ > ]
The screen will go blank, then say "Initialized."

After that, it worked like new.

I hope that helps.

Error code HO3

Hi,

On most Panasonic, error code HO3 indicates a mechanical problem, more specifically, the cradle that supports the laser eye could not traverse along its patch. Corrective action requires opening the unit, cleaning the slider bar, plastic cogs, worm gear/drive. It may help to use a can of compressed air and re-lubricate appropriate parts. Since the unit is open and expectantly dust would be swirling after the use of the compressed air, it may be to your advantage to swab/clean the lens itself prior to closing.

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.
