Default ok , im looking for ET or patch......help

Im probably still being moderated, so my posts dont go immediately onto the board LIKE EVERYONE ELSES.
It seems im under the thumb of the powers that be.

At any rate........my battery finally died..........so I replaced it with an interstate.
Everything is fine and dandy...........except my cd changer....

I can't get the cd changer to work at all.

What needs to be done.......any ideas?


thanks

Okay, do not panic

First - remove the cartrige from the unit, and then reinstall it (leave the key out of the ignition).

Second - insert the key, turn it on, activate the CD button, and enjoy the sounds.

This sometimes happens when the changer needs to be reset after a power interruption. Take the cartridge out and then reinsert it, making sure first that it's in the correct orientation. Hopefully, that will re-enable it.
