    DVD Player - drawer stuck
    The DVD drawer on our dvd player (hooked up to tv) is stuck closed. How do I open it?

    Thank you

    Thank you

    This should solve your problem:

    Locate your DVD player’s manual Eject button. It is usually a small hole located underneath the DVD drawer.

    Insert a stiff wire—such as a paperclip or safety pin—into the hole. Push gently and the drawer should open partway. Gently pull the drawer the rest of the way open.

    Remove the DVD and see if there is a problem with it. Most DVD player drawers get stuck when a DVD is warped or the label is starting to peel. If the DVD is warped, discard it. If the label is peeling, remove the label.

    Turn your DVD player back on. If it gets stuck again on a different DVD, then the problem may be with your DVD player rather than with your DVDs. If this is the case you should have it serviced or perhaps it is time for a new one.

    I hope this helps.
