Keeping the RCA DRC69702 running keeps the kids entertained.
Troubleshooting the RCA DRC69702 DVD player involves checking and identifying the parts that could potentially affect the power status of your system. Most often the problem is a simple fix. Your best bet is to pull out the user manual and review the troubleshooting section located at the back of the guide. Always read the important safety instructions listed in your manual before installing the DVD player. This unit consists of a DVD player built into a monitor and a second monitor, which attach to the head rests in your automobile.
Remote Control
When removing the remote control from the package for the first time, pull out the plastic tab located at the top of the remote. The remote also needs one CR2025 3-volt battery to operate. If you're trying to turn-on power to the DVD player with the remote with no success, note that the remote uses an infrared sensor. When you have a strong or bright ambient light source near the sensor such as bright sunlight, the infrared sensor may be degraded to the point where the DVD isn't receiving the signal.
Power-On Button
Find the power-on switch located at the top right-hand side of the DVD player. This is also the standby switch and should remain in the on position. You'll find another on switch on the right side of each screen. All of these switches must be in the on position to view the DVD.
DVD Player
The receiving end of the infrared sensor in located on the lower front center of the DVD player. If your remote control unit isn't powering on the DVD player, make sure this infrared port is unobstructed. Beneath this sensor is the power-on indicator light, which turns red when the DVD player is powered-on. When the standby/on switch is in the on position, the light will also be illuminated.
Power Supply
The RCA DRC69702 uses the car power adapter bundled with your DVD player to power on the unit. This power adapter requires automobiles that have a 12V, negative ground electrical system. The DVD player won't work in 24V vehicles. Most cars have a 12V system, but if your DVD player won't turn on, it never hurts to double-check. Make sure the DC-in jack fits tightly in the socket and that the car power adapter also fits securely in the 12V power outlet, most often found on the dash of your automobile.
