Can I replace Panasonic overhead dvd player with this one easily or will it require additional work with the wiring etc. Current has no FM capability.

which car you want fix panasonic? what dvd you have at the movement? and which country you are in

T.Bower has it right, just use existing wiring. The FM transmission on mine is very weak - have to crank the radio volume way up to hear it. Your better off with the hard wiring.

If you already have all the wiring for the existing DVD player, then you should just be able to connect the existing wires to the appropriate ports on this player and be good to go.

We had to send the one we ordered back..thier was only the cd player in package, nothing to run it with? We had a 12 disk player in our trunk and wanted to replace that as it broke down..so not sure what too answer on your question. sorry...

you know,,,,when i got mine ,i was real dissappointed with it,,to me it was a total rippoff..i had planned to use speakers i already had,,but found out,,you cant do that because Phillips made them with wiring that cant be swapped !!! ,,anyway,,to answer your question,,,i really doubt it....i think they made this system so that you CANT use any other components with it .its just that simple!! i would just get rid of it and get another DVD player. by the way,,the one i have,,,,,i never used it ,,it was that bad ,,and i was that disappointed with this purchase .

I had the same thing happen to my unit just over a year after purchase. It won't recognize any discs. I highly recommend buying the sound system separate instead of a combo unit. If you want to find just the receiver, I'd try eBay. I have seen the entire unit go for $125.

I already had a little headphone jack gizmo that has the red and yellow RCA jacks at the other end, that I pugged into the DVD RCA female receptacles in the back of the receiver. The HiRes DVD player connects via a HDMI cable to a HDMI jack provided by the receiver. I use an iPOD. I already had this wire thing, you can get one at Amazon or down at a mall, I guess, if you can't wait...

If you get it to recognize the DVD player, you could try the eject button. Or make it learn the eject button from the old remote. I returned the remote, has basic flaws in it.

Change the battery, be aware latest dvd's can't be "stabilized" by this unit.

I've had excellent service from this receiver. Its used in my motorhome so not used on a daily basis. If its still under warranty, certainly send it to Sony for warranty repair. If not under warranty my experience is that repairs are more expensive than buying a new product.

Yes, this unit is easy to set up. I'm not sure how easy it is to do it how you have proposed though. I mean, you want to use AV cables into your DVD/VHS combo deck. That should be really easy. I don't believe that this DVD player supports an RF output though. Are you sure your Hitachi DVD just hasn't died? If it freezes, that means the little motor inside for the laser is probably stuck.

I bought the AAT unit replacing the Panasonic 4 line I had for years. It does not hold up well and I would suggest you consider the Panasonic.

This is a question for Panasonic tech support. Most likely it will be yes but at a cost which would cause one to consider a replacement.

At least the VBR 337 and 338 allow wireless software updates. I've had to replace 2 Vizio DVD players because the movie industry outpaced Vizio's technology. The studios are constantly adding more stuff to their DVDs and you need a player that can keep up.

No I live in NH so I can't find anyone to do it and Sony wants to charge me $265 to replace it. Right now it is sitting in my storeroom, a $300 pile of junk. Let me know what happens with yours, if it's not too expensive I may try to find someone in MA. At least yours is still under warranty you are lucky.

Are you trying to replace the display or the whole thing. If you are trying to replace the player email me at skydart82@yahoo.com I have this and no longer use it

Depends. I'd have to see your hookup. But you could split it again to your DVD player if it has the RCA connections. But a good stereo shop should be able to help.

Its best with electricity. The controller hardly works when on batteries alone-manual says so. Personally I don't like the design of the unit-many problems-the station LCD readout is veryfaint, and can be seen only close-up I have to walk up to it when I program it. so manually you have to be close to see it. I also have to set it to mono to avoid background noise in my weakish signal area-although other radios have no problems. ETC. I think it is an old model, not supported by Panasonic. however Boomboxes are out of favor, and the choice is minimal.
