CD Changer Questions
Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum and also a new corvette owner. I recently acquired a 98 C5 Corvette so I'm trying to get to know the car. While inspecting I found a cd Changer in the truck, but I do not know how to use it. I put cd's in it and can hear it cycling them. I just don't know how to operate the Changer from the stereo. Please help!

Go to section 3-16
To go from radio AM/FM hit the CD aux button on the head unit. One function that I don't recall seeing in the manual is how to cycle from CD1 to CD2, etc. - Hit button #5 to cycle thru the CD's in the rear compartment player.
Good luck with you new C5 and welcome to the forum

What kind of head unit do you have? One with a Tape player? If yes then you use the TapeAux button to switch between CD and Tape. You also must load the CD's into the magazine with LABEL DOWN.
If your car came with an owners manual this is all described in section 3 of the manual. If you don't have an owners manual then you can download one here:

The cd changer could be toast. Try this, remove all the cd from the individual trays. Only install one cd disc (something commercially recorded) in slot 1 and insert the remaining 11 trays into the blank slots. Try playing the cd. If it err's flip the cd over just to make sure your putting them in properly. Test it again. If it error's the player could have several things wrong with it such as a dirty laser. Search this forum "cd changer problem" there are quite a few diagnostic threads to go through.
