The laser just gets a build up of crud on it from over the years. It happens on the head unit too like my procedure above details.

I just bought my vette this summer, how can you find out the anti-theft code? Can a dealer find out the code?

Same thing happened to my head unit. Brought it to a car audio place near work and they cleaned the lens for the laser and it's been working fine since.

Very odd for me bc I'm having same issue with CD player. Pulled fuse for 30 min. Replaced and player worked fine for Collective Soul CD then I changed to Warrant CD and back to same issue (no disc found). So now I'll leave fuse out over night and try again.

Any other ideas??
