Default Multi-CD player problem

I have a 97 Vette and recently my multidisc CD player got jammed (I think there is a disc stuck in it) - turns on, but won't eject/play/etc. Any suggestions?? Many thanks

Slide a puddy knife between the cartridge and the changers housing, it allows for manual release.

Or you can take it out and then take it apart. Usually the safe way.

I just removed a 12 CD Pioneer changer and it has the cartridge with the 12 CDs inside. Where do you slide the putty knife. Can you restore the cartridge after removing the CDs without power.

Do you know the pinouts for the wires coming out of the plug. Need to put this in another vehicle. BIGHANK
