I was given a 2006 Honda Odyssey with a DVD player. Regardless of the disc I insert, the screen on the radio will say, “Loading” for several seconds, and then “Error” will begin to flash, followed by the player ejecting the disc. I searched the owners manual for the minivan, and while it has some troubleshooting tips for the DVD player, it doesn’t mention this one (unless I glanced over it.)

Has anyone here had this issue, and if so, how do I resolve it? Should I just buy a DVD player cleaner and try that first?

Thank you in advance for the help.

You have a 14 year old car with a broken radio. The solution is to replace the radio, you can’t repair the old one. I’d suggest an aftermarket model.

Try the dvd cleaner, cheapest hope.
