I am getting the locked display

The unit is connected by small set of gears that push tray /disc out. As tray comes out it either pushes disc out of slot or pops open door (depending on which style of face you have). If you have kids I would not be surprised if something is caught in between disc and face or jamming edge of door. (know this from own experience). The face of player can usually be carefully popped off by gently prying at corners. If you get face off you may be able to see if something is stuck in unit that does not belong, or see if a piece is broken loose near face. If unit has door that opens you can try using a slim but stiff piece of plastic and keep tension on door with plastic while hitting eject button. On some units there is a small hole on face that is manual release that ejects disc - even if no power. Usually takes a long straight push in hole (straightened paper clip or dental pick) and it manually pushes gear set to go out. So many of these units are different but most do have a manual release. Check owners manual to see if it shows a picture of face and possible release hole. Have had kids fight over changing a disc and pushed in on it while it was ejecting so it stripped gears, and had kid hang on ceiling mount unit that tore screen totally off. I feel your pain....

Put tv in DVD mode.jam DVD from
Spinning up when it’s trying to read disc. Eventually it will eject the disc because it can’t read it :)

someone has to open the unit to see if something (a disc or something else) is jammed--mechanism could be jammed or out of alignment.

Often if the disc is jammed it can gently be moved to let the unit work again.

It not the disc, it won't take a disc ...... if I go to put one in it Makes noise but won't actually take the disc. Would this be the loading gear and can it be fixed or?

Remove the top cover.  You will see where the disc are, take care in removing the stabilizer housing, you should be able to get the dvds out and put it back together.

uplug then replug then press eject

1. From a cold start with no disc in unit, press the / button simultaneously on the front panel for 5 seconds.
2. All settings including the password will revert to the factory settings.
3. Don't use this unless absolutely necessary.

Your Child Lock has been turned on.
Press the power button of the remote for about 8
seconds. No buttons of front panel and remote can be
operated now and Lock indicator (“LOCK”) will be
displayed on window display.
To release child lock,
press the power button of the remote control for
about 8 seconds.
Good Luck.

Sounds like something may be stuck inside the unit. If there is no warranty left, UNPLUG the device from the mains, undo the 2 or 4 screws on the sides of the unit, lift off the lid and just look to see if there is a foreign object inside or a DVD,(if at some point one of the kids put 2 Discs in and closed it, one of them could have got pushed over the top of the drive and got jammed), remove it and put the lid back on. Just make sure you don't touch or fiddle with any thing inside as not to damage it further.
Another possibility is that something is stuck to laser lens which you will only be able to see if you take the lid off.
DANGER WARNING do not take the lid off in the same room as the kids, or they WILL do it themselves, when you are not about.

How I got my DVD from ”lock” condition

My DVD (Panasonic m: DMR-ES10) had gone to ”locked” condition without any warning.

Perhaps the reason was that I transfered the machine when it was on and recording was going…

Guidebook didn´t help to resolve the problem, neither Internet. Finally I managed to solve the promlem . This is how i did step by step:

1) Power on
2) Hello
3) read
4) no disc
5) functions
6) to others
7) setup
8) select down arrow
9) disc
10) select right arrow
11) setings for playback
12) enter
13) ratings (level8)
14) enter
15) No limit
16) enter
17) ”The Recorder is now unlocked” (picture of open lock)
18) enter
19) return
20) return

After this DVD works normally.
