Default Cd player not working

Just bought a 2002 vette with the 12 cd changer. Can't get it to play. Course I don't know how. So I've got it loaded "upside down" in trunk. You can hear it loading but inside with key on I get power to radio but ERR signal when I insert another cd in dash. I can't get the cd light to go up to the section that selects the # of cd u want to play. If that makes any sense. Seems like the trouble is in the cd switch which is right beside the am/fm switch. Any ideas ? Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

All that stuff is in your owners manual. If you don't have a copy here is a link to a pdf version

Service manual is what I need but $450. They gotta be out of their mind !!! I'll have to print it out at library since I don't have a printer at home.
