if you have a w208 coupe, then the cd changer should be held by a bracket on the rear passengers side of the trunk. just unbolt the 4 screws that are holding the bracket to the car, and uplug both plastic molex plugs.

Thanks for the advice. I got it working not sure how but it does.

I think i hit a pothole picking up a friend and it just might have knocked the fiber optics or something out of alignment, anyway thanks for your replies.
