Default 12 CD Changer remote??

Hey Guys,

Well I got my 04 CE yesterday, spent my time registering and cleaning. I seem to recall the owner mentioning a remote for the 12 CD changer? It is the factory option, anyone know if it came with remote? If not, how do you use it with the dash? Sorry for the noob owner question.

Thanks

Remote refers to the location of the changer (cargo area), NOT to a remote controller. The changer is operated by the radio HU.

It's in the center compartment. Make sure you load the cd's correctly.
Another nice, but overpriced option from GM.

And if it starts to act up, don't bother getting it fixed or replaced, just put in an Ipod instead. Lots of threads about how to do that - search is your friend!

Congrats on the new ride - you're gonna' love it!!!

Yeah I'm glad I didn't have to spend the $600 for the changer, original owner probably got a good deal too since it was on the lot and in Oct 04 when the C6 was coming. My wife and I really love the C5 styling and couldn't be happier with it!! I'll have to keep the Ipod switch in mind for later on.

Finally found the button in mine. Not in owners manual. #5 button on the head unit avances the cd's in the changer. Knew something had to do it, tried one button at a time.

Good to know about advancing the disc, haven't had a chance to try that but the one CD I loaded is working great. I had it in the label side up which I corrected after reading the manual.

Correct. "5" changes the CD, 1 is back one track 3 is forward one track
