cd changer problem any inputs pleaseeeeeeeeee?
has anyone ever had this to happen when you are playing a cd thru your changer? For the last two days i am getting a lot of crackling when i play cd in my 2000 vette. it if off and one but when i first start up the car no prblems then after ten minutes it sounds like a record playing with a lot fo scratches on it. This does not happen when I am playing the fm radio. any suggestions? or inputs would be graetly appreciated.

I think it is dying. I am on my 4th changer on my 2004. They all seem to fail with temperature. In other words, it will play for a while and then stop. I never had any crackling. It would start working again after startup but only if the car sat for several hours and cooled off. If yours works again after a quick restart, it may be some other problem. Good luck.

Or the GM10-AUX and use any player with a headphone jack.
