Default CD Changer Problem

My changer for some reason took two cd's in to play and we are having a difficult time getting either cd out ! Both seem to be caught on something. ! Anyone experience this ? I may have to get a new changer ! Any suggestions on where to buy ?

There is no mystery to it. Just disconnect the power a few times and let it cycle and it may give up one of the CDs. You may have to go in and get the other one manually. Wear gloves. The inside of that thing is sharp as a dozen razor blades. You'll probably still need some band-aids.

LOL, Like Dougiefresh said, they suck. I thought I had mine all figured out so I loaded it with 12 great CD's and it was working like a charm, until I left town. I somehow had 2 come loose and now the cartridge is stuck worse than before. I tried everything to get it out but all I did was slice my hand up. Thinking that it is to old and has broken plastic parts...lol Good luck. I didn't want to change the head unit so I now have a Bluetooth thing and it works pretty good.
