Default C5 stock CD changer problems?!?!?!

The changer has a CD and its plastic holder (the piece thta you put the CD in that slides in the cartridge) stuck in the player portion of the changer. I have it apart and the cartridge out watching it attempt to move the CD 3 times, it times out and shuts down.

Is there a way to manually remove the CD and its holder from the player portion of the changer?? If I put the cartridge back in, it still tries to move the CD 3 times then shuts down.

I have also gently tried to pull the CD and holder out, no way, it is held in I guess by the mechanism

HELP !!! i cant listen to it


thanks

The plastic holder is held in place inside the changer by a clip of some sort on the side, see if you can manually push (some force may be required) that clip out of the notch in the holder while pulling the holder out of the slot. You may have to sacrifice the CD in order to yank it out.

Other than that, GOOD LUCK
