CD-Changer problem

Hi Sovietbenz,
if you 've got a factory installed Headunit, you won't succeed, as the Mercedes-Benz-Headunit only supports Mercedes-Benz CD-Changers. The correct way to connect a CD-Changer is a D²B optical fibre. If you need partnumbers, let me know.

Some head units need to be reprogrammed to recognize a changer. I assume that you installed it correctly, because you can't install fiberless changer in fiber bused Benz.
