Dvd player has sound, no picture or distorted

get a VCR head cleaning tape as the heads may be dirty etc, apart from being outdated

thats a lazer problem in the cd usually a cd cleaning disk will sort that problem if not a its the lazer head thats distorted best this to do it put a conversion tape to ipod or iphone and play your tunes off those devices via your tape, there only cheap to buy.

Try running a laser cleaning disk in it to clean the laser. Often times it has dust inside and distorts audio and video.

Sometimes these DVD players have a security feature. When car is moving it won't play. Check manual to see if it has that feature. Let me know.

If you are getting sound and picture from the screen's auxiliary jacks, then this only confirms that the screen is faulty. The DVD player must be reading the picture signal as it supplying the auxiliary jacks, but the screen has failed to display the signal.

I, feel sorry for you, after reading your problem, but don't worry you visit the Reliable-Store they will help you for sure. 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe Workshop Service Repair Manual

hi robert, if you are referring to a car dvd player then first check the wiring of your unit. there could be a picture mute/park brake wire that needs to be grounded. this feature acts as an enable for the picture on your dvd player. next check that you have set the correct system type for your region e.g. pal, ntsc,secam. this will be a button found on your remote control of dvd unit. next try a master reset on the unit. thereafter consult with your installer before taking unit for repairs. cheers!

as you hear the sound, means there is communication! double check video cable connection: you should be using 3 connectors cabling (Red, White and yellow). make sure same color for video both ends....good luck

Have you tried replacing batteries in the remote control and switch on from there ? It worked with mine, I had the sound but no picture.
