CD Changers Issue: Need Help
On my 2004 C32 with the CD changer in the glovebox, the radio is telling me there's "NO CD in Changer' when I hit the CD button, although there is. Is there any way to get the CD cassette out cause when I hit the eject button, she wont eject??

if so, i've had the first problem where it wouldnt detect CDs in the cartridge (or cassette, w/e its called) and it would cycle through the 6 slots until it found one IF it found one. it hasnt happened to me in a while (perhaps b/c i'm now using my ipod instead which i use with a tape adaptor with our tape deck) but when it did happen, i would have to keep ejecting the cartridge and push it back in until it detected the CD i wanted. could have been a heat thing for me, idk. but if yours doesnt eject AND doesnt detect CDs...sounds like something might be jammed in there, though i dont see how unless the cartridge wasnt put in properly/the right way. or maybe there is a bad sensor with the CD player unit. idk. i'm an idiot

Sounds like maybe your changer isn't getting power. I recently had a new rear SAM installed and before it was coded, I got the no CD changer message, but the CD cartridge would still eject. Since you're having problems on both fronts, maybe it's a power issue. If you haven't already, check fuse 24 inside the car.

I think it's YET another common issue with our cars. Same thing happened to me over a year ago. Now I just play the radio or my iPod. Just gave up on it. Just like my heated seat. Just like the broken yoke on the steering wheel adjustment. Siiiigh!!

I recently installed an aftermarket radio and after I was done I wanted to get some cd's that I left in the CD changer. When I pressed the button nothing happened. It seems that the function or power of the cd changer is tied into to the factory head unit.
It could be that a cable may have been disconnected. Have you been doing any thing with the front dash or radio?
