How to fix a Sony DVD VCR Combo remote that is not working?
If the remote isn't working, ensure you're pointing it at the remote sensor on the DVD-VCR. Replace all the batteries with new ones if they're weak. Also, make sure the TV / DVD·VIDEO switch is set correctly, and select the correct mode (DVD or VIDEO) using the SELECT DVD/VIDEO button.
Why is the timer not working on my Sony DVD VCR Combo?
If the timer isn't working, ensure the clock is set, a tape has been inserted, and the safety tab hasn't been removed. Also, make sure the tape isn't at its end, a program has been set for timer recording, your timer settings are past the current time, and the cable box or satellite receiver is turned on. Note that the clock stops if the DVD-VCR is disconnected from the wall outlet for more than one minute.
Why is there no picture on my Sony DVD VCR Combo?
If you're experiencing a blank screen or noisy picture, the connecting cords might be damaged. Try reconnecting them securely. Also, ensure the correct input selector is chosen on your TV, the disc isn't dirty or flawed, and that 'Progressive' is set to 'Off'. Check the settings and connections to your TV as well.
Why does playback stop automatically on my Sony DVD VCR Combo?
If playback stops automatically, it may be due to the disc having an auto pause signal. The player will stop playback at these signals.

If a tape cannot be inserted, check that a tape is not already in the tape compartment.
Why doesn't the tracking meter appear on the screen of my Sony DVD VCR Combo?
If the tracking meter does not appear on the screen, it is because the recording condition of the tape is very poor, and tracking cannot be adjusted.
Why is the title of the MP3 audio album not correctly displayed on my Sony DVD VCR Combo?
If the title of the MP3 audio album/ track or JPEG image album/file is not correctly displayed, it is because the player can only display numbers and alphabet.
