Hey Kyle

Also recieved a HO2 error. Took the cover off, gave it a good spin, now it works perfectly.

You are a true genius, the Cypher of Panasonic DVD-players.

Also I imagine you as extremely good lookin’ ;-)

I just tried your step by step instruction and the first time did not work, kept on giving me the same error,I tried again but this time I moved the whole piece a bit taken off the screws and when I tried it it did work…so far its working but if you have some extra cash, my advice will be “get a new DVD player!!” …thanks for the fix!

I just repaired my S35 (it displayed “H02″ with no warning, after a Janis Joplin CD) with these instructions. Now works like normal. The unit was manufactured in May 2003.

Thank you so much from Boston!

Marti — What model is yours?

On another forum Lilmissmilies suggested that:
turning on your device,
taking out any disk,
closing the tray and
pushing the “back skip”, pause, and play buttons at the same time
hold buttons for about 4 secs until the screen goes blank
“initilizing” should then appear
fixed this problem. Others confirmed that it worked on a number of Panasonic DVD players. I will check on my H02 failing Panasonic player tonight AEST and let you know.

I thank everyone for their input. I’m stuck being unable to remove the case. Maybe it’s a strength thing, but I can’t get the screw driver to turn any of the screws. Am I a dunce, a weakling — or something else (no wisecracks, please)…

I have another problem – not H02, but H03. Anybody knows what does it mean and could you give me advice how could I repair it?

Thanks so much for this–very easy fix and it seems to work so far! Ours died when we had already played a movie and it sat idle for a couple of minutes on a special features menu. It went back to the DVD blue screen and showed “H07″ when you tried to hit play. When we shut it down and turned it on again it started displaying “H02″. Our unit was manufactured in February 2003, so it seems to be about the same age as others who have had this problem. Oh well, I’m glad we can get a little more life out of it by opening up the hood!
