pioneer dv737 fault

[curlybill]

i have a 737 damaged.when insert a dvd the display light off
and nothing happens.when insert a cd audio the display light off
i can start manually but the sound pop e crash.Any idea?
laser or power supply?.

Could it be the spindle motor / drive electronics to the spindle motor? Every time you insert a disc, one of the first things the player will try to do is spin-up.

Open the cover and see what it does when you load a disk...

autoplay i have to give the play command when the song ends
the next command to go on.the sound is much distorted.

Hi,

Laser focus may be off calibration - seems it has difficulties seeing a DVD and reading CDs properly.

Could be that the laser is weak already - if the player has been used for a long long time it may be that the laser assy is nearing 'end of life'.

About the spindle motor,it's possible,seen that both are using brushless 3 phase motor,but check for wiring.About the lens itself,you need to contact Pioneer for their own laser pick up unit.

Just wondering what kind decoder chipset inside???Pioneer own design or the more popular Taiwan's Mediatek chipset???
