How can I find/reset passwords on Coby 224S and Coby 206

I can only watch G-rated DVDs due to parental controls. I want to either change the parental rating or at least have the password to change settings on the player. Where is the password and if I cannot find it, can I take the memory chip out and burn it to something on a chip burner? Help?

If everything else seems to be functioning, try using your remote to reset the TV. There is a setting to switch the TV from being a TV to being a screen, or monitor, for the DVD player. What the button is labeled varies by manufacturer. It may be: TV/DVD, input, source, display, or something else. Display, for instance, displays the choice on the screen. Highlight and select DVD or perhaps the brand name of the DVD player.

SOURCE: wrong disc error

I work for Coby technical support. Our customer service phone number is 1-800-727-3592.

Unfortunately, if the player will no longer read any commercial dvd that you attempt to play, the unit is defective and needs to be replaced. The unit has a 90 day warranty from the date of purchase. You will need the receipt in order to receive a warranty exchange.

If you feel this solution doesn't deserve a good rating, please let me know why so that I may better assist you. If there is anything more I can do to help, I will!

SOURCE: I reset the factory settings

I work for Coby technical support. Our customer service phone number is 1-800-727-3592.

Did you use the reset instructions that are found on a sticker on the top of the player? If so, and the unit is still asking for a password, this might mean the V-Chip or parental guardian has been activated. Please call the customer service number above so see if there is a master password available.

If you feel this solution doesn't deserve a good rating, please let me know why so that I may better assist you. If there is anything more I can do to help, I will!

I find the user manual, for the DVD player ona18dp001, to be inadequate. What is the password for? Do I need it in order to play a DVD? What is the reason for the coxial jack? Thanks.

The password is used if the parental control is enabled. This lets a parent/guardian ensure that DVDs can't be watched without the password if the movie has a rating above the chosen limit. (If you obtained a used DVD player where previous owner chose to lock the system to Kid safe, you'd need the password to watch any movie that doesn't have that rating.) If the parental control is off, you do not need the password.

I can't find much on the ONA18DP001. In general, some older DVD players have an RF (coaxial) out cable connection for viewing the video on an older TV (NTSC tuner) with only an RF input. If your TV has other input options, you don't need to consider this input.

I hope this helps.

I need to cde to unlock my playstation 2 t watch r rated movies.

To reset the parental lock password or disable the parental lock, follow these easy steps

Step 1


Turn on your PS2 and choose the menu screen where you would normally enter the password. Instead of entering a password, go to the DVD setup menu. Go to "custom setup" and choose "parental controls".

Step 2


When you are asked for the code or password, press the select button on your controller and enter the number "7444". Now set the parental lock to "off".

Step 3


Press "reset" on the front of the game console to save your settings. When the system reboots, you should be able to view your previously censored games or DVDs. You will also have the opportunity to choose your own password, allowing you to turn the parental lock on and off, either manually or automatically by game or movie ratings.

Passcode

Step 1
Place a DVD that prompts you for your password in your PS2. If you have any R rated DVDs sitting around, one of those should work just fine. It should prompt you for the password before anything else comes up. 
Step 2
Select "Yes" to playing the movie and select "Yes" again to temporarily suspend parental controls. This is where you would put in the password if you knew it and the DVD would play. You may try "1111" at this point, as it is often the password. If that doesn't work, continue through the next few steps. 
Step 3
Press the "Select" button on the screen that wants you to input the password. This should change the text on the screen from "Enter Password" to "Delete Password." 
Step4
Input the numbers "7444" into the box on the screen. This is the universal password needed to delete the current password. Once you input the numbers, you should get a message that says "Deletion Complete." Press the "Select" button again and you should be prompted to enter a new password. 
Step5
Enter a new password for your parental control. Make sure it is something easy that you will remember. Once you enter it in, you will be asked to confirm your new password. Enter it one more time and you should be able to watch any DVD you want.
hope it helps!please rate if it does!
