DVD player in 1913-TDXB makes noise and won't allow TV to operate. First the DVD player quit working and now it makes a clicking noise when the set is turned on and set won't go past the DVD. Can the DVD be disabled so that the TV will work?

I dont see an LED back lights listed for that unit. This means it uses CFL lights. The link I am posting for this is a major parts supplier, as you can see the power supply for the back light is out of stock, you can use the info there to get the OEM part number and then search for it on ebay etc. Good luck because the unit is obsolete and you may end up having to get the board repaired. https://www.shopjimmy.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=1913+tdxb+

mechanical problem or related to pickup in the unit.

Might be your backlight inverter...do you have sound? If so, hold a flashlight up to the screen when it's turned on and if you see images...that is probably the culprit. Try these guys for parts, they have been great to me in the past....ShopJimmy.com.

what you need to do is call direct tv support they should have a code for you

I have the same TV and the same thing happenned. Then after a month or so after DVD stopped working I get not picture at all. TV is shot.

you would have to take the back off of the TV and manually(carefully) pull the disc out with a pair of needle nose pliers..if you force it too much...you will ruin the drive mech...sometimes people put a second cd in the player without realizing there is one in there...other times the dvd player just stops working because it has failed.....you may need a new dvd mechanism as i have seen the drive mechanism on these units go bad often.you can order them through Philips for about $100.00...and it's not too hard to install
