Default What is wrong with my 12pack cd changer?

It has been working fine ever since I have had my car, now when I go to put in a new CD a few days ago it said "Err". So I tried to pop out the cd magazine to make sure the CD's were correctly put in and now the magazine doesnt even pop out. I tried and tried to make it come out but it seems stuck. Has anyone ever had this problem with their magazine tray?

I have not looked closely at the changer but there might be a reset button. It will proably be behind the changer door and it will look like a small dimple button. You can use a ball point pen to push it. If there is try that. Other thing to look for is a blown fuse. I would try those two things first.

At the risk of embarrassment (no risk really, used to it), I'll admit I had that problem once and later learned that I had simply failed to fully close the sliding door on the CD changer.

Well today I went out and retried my CD player and still doesnt work. I shut the door on the player itself 2 or 3 times and still doesnt work. I tried looking for the reset button but couldnt find it. Anyone else would know about this problem?

Did you check for a blown fuse? Not positive it has one. If it does not have a reset button and the fuses are fine you will have to pull it out and have it repaired. It most likely has a cd or cartridge in it sideways. It happens often with changer. IF you are mechanically inclined you can disassemble it yourself. You will see the mechanism and a cd or the cd tray. You have to get those out or into the cartridge. If you are gentle and everything is in place it will proably work just fine afterwards.
