Stuck CD Changer.
Hello,
I put the cd changer in with new CD's, and it now seems to be stuck. I pressed the eject button, but the green "eject" light flashes. It sounds like it wants to come out, but nothing happens.
Any ideas on how to get the cd sleeve out?

I unplugged the Changer and opened the unit to remove the sleeve. I reconnected it without the sleeve. Then, I loaded a couple CD's both burned and store to give it some options. It ended up working but was a pain to open the changer up.

In the past I've disconnected the cable and the two bolts that hold it in place. Then I removed the entire changer, and removed the CDs. However, since then I've discovered simply tapping the unit with my finger shakes it enough to release the CDs.

What 'sleeve' are you guys talking about?
Also, do the CDs actually play (although stuck in the changer)? Again, mine says 'No magazine' when I push 'CD' on the headunit.
And thanks for the tip MarcusF. I'm def. going to try that.
