Can I fix my Matsui PL618?

My portable DVD player does not read any DVD disk. All the menu functions work, and so does the remote control. The screen lights up properly. It just reads "No Disk" when I try to play a DVD. Can I fix it? Is it just a replacement part that I need?

Its not the lens. The motor seems to fail to engage.

a q tip lightly dipped in pure alcohol from a chemist's may work if used very gently

Try a lens cleaner. If you get stuck Matsui is an own brand of DSG (Dixons/Currys/PC World/The Link).
