Re: Error Codes Assistance

I have a Sony DVPS7700 DVD player. I am getting error codes C.13.64, C.13.48 and C.13.00.

The DVD discs will not read when inserted, or it will also just say "no disc inserted" when there is a disc inside spinning.

I have cleaned the lense with a DVD dry lense cleaning disc (with the brushes), but the problem seems to persist. Sometimes discs will finally read after I re-insert them 4 or 5 times. But the problem always returns when the player is turned on and off again.

Any help would be much appreciated.

  Hi,
  
  I've got the same problem with my DVP-S7700.
  Even if the dvd is new, I've got this error: "NO DISC", and it becomes more and more difficult to read dvd.
  If you've got a solution, please, send it back to me. I'll appreciate.
  
  Thanks a lot,
  
  Alex

    Wow...this was a long time ago. Anyway...the solution was unfortunately...to buy a new DVD player. I had my Sony S7700 in the shop for a couple months, literally everything was replaced on it except the mother board. The laser assembly, the motor, even all the connections on the motherboard were re-soldered to ensure a good connection, etc...etc... In the end, it was determined that it was a motherboard failure and the cost of replacing the motherboard with a new one was going to be prohibitively expensive and more than buying a new top of the line DVD player, since they don't make that motherboard anymore. So I bought a new Sony 999ES DVD/SA-CD player for around $600 + tax. Got it at www.oade.com. (Pronounced "eddie"). http://www.oade.com/Home_theater/sony/sony_es/dvpns999es.html

      Hi brian. First of all, I want to thank you for your answer even if it contains bad news. :-) So, as you said, I should buy another one. Bad news..., bad news. I would prefer to repair it, but I don't know if it will be cheap or not. Thanks again, Best regards. Alex

  I have the same problem with my SONY DVD player. I use to swear by Sony but this thing has given me so much trouble, I won't buy anything else if it says SONY on it!
