Exclamation S55 '04 - Magazine Scan Please Wait

So, I had my battery disconnected for 3 months for the winter season,
after connecting it back, everything seems to work fine except the CD changer.
I keep getting "Magazine Scan Please wait" and it stays like that till I put the Radio or the MP3 in dash.

CD magazine can eject with no problem.
Thanks for any feedback.

Disconnect the power to the changer to reset it

I have tried this method, Although it was hard to reach the power plug it did not work?
I'm still getting "Magazine Scan Please Wait". I can eject with no problem, but it seems that the changer is not doing that sound when they are scanning or playing disks.

I kicked the fiber optic ring by hitting the SOS button (while my phone was turned off) and mine came back.

No sorry, I should have specified car. I got it to work basically by fiddling with it and following some of the stuff I found on here.
