FOTOBIZ X DELETE MAGAZINES PRO
Again, be gentle - you don't want to ruin the player when a pro may be able to remove the unit and free the disc for $20 or so. If this fails, then try slipping the edge of the coaster (or something even thinner) under the stuck CD and pry it up while pressing the eject button. Don't be hamfisted - you're just trying to give the player some traction to help it eject the stuck one. Then turn the ignition on and hold the eject button and wiggle the CD around.
Insert the coaster about an inch into the slot (yes, on top of the stuck CD). Or use a blank one if that's all you have. You may need that unbent paperclip to reach the button.įind a coaster in your junk drawer - by coaster, I mean an old CD that doesn't work. Then look for a tiny, usually recessed little button that you can press. Remove the faceplace from your player (be gentle something like a butter knife often works without damaging the bezel or breaking tabs). You can rock the magazine a little bit in the slot to see the mechanism and it should be easy to release - sort of like using the little pin hole on a CD drive, the magazine pops up as soon as it is freed. Forum member Alwaysfords2 has been able to remove stuck CD magazines by using a piece of shim stock or a hack saw blade and going alongside one of the long sides of the magazine to hit the release. Tapping on the cartridge while pressing the eject button sometimes ejects stuck discs. Some players, especially aftermarket ones, use a CD cartridge or magazine. Look for a hole about the size of the paperclip and don't mistake an emergency release hole for an earphone jack. Some players have a groove under the CD door instead of a hole.
If your player has a small hole in the front of it, like most personal computer CD players do, straighten a paperclip and push the clip straight into the hole to manually release the catch. Some people report success just by pulling the disc out with the tweezers without power to the player and without pressing the eject button. Try using some tweezers, needle nose pliers or hemostats (every tool kit needs a hemostat or two!) to pull the CD out while pressing the eject button with power going to the player (theory being that the disc is so slick the player can't eject it without help). Several people have had success with this trick so I've moved up higher in the list of things to try. One commenter below had success by pressing both the power button and the eject button.Īt least one forum member had success releasing a stuck CD by, ahem, banging on top of the dashboard! New from the comments below - pound on the dash while pressing the button. When the button stops flashing (or when a few minutes has passed), release the button and immediately press it again (theory being that the two minutes of "work" followed by a quick break will fool the player into releasing the disc when you press the eject button again). Depending on your make/model, the eject button may flash. Hold the eject button down for 2 or 3 minutes. Turn your ignition on to the accessory position.
FOTOBIZ X DELETE MAGAZINES MANUAL
Check your owner's manual - you may have more than one fuse that controls the CD and/or the radio and you may need to remove all the related fuses. This fuse trick seems to have the greatest chance of success overall. Make sure you have any codes for your radio that may be required since disconnecting the battery cables can cause the radio to quit working too. If you cannot find the fuse, you can disconnect the negative battery cable, but you'll lose your radio presets and other settings. If you have any qualms about trying any of these techniques, let a dealer or audio shop tackle the project instead.įigure out what fuse controls the CD player and, with no key in the ignition, pull the fuse out for a minute (or more - I've seen TSBs that say leave the fuse out for 10 minutes), then replace it (theory being that the fuse acts as a reset button). If your car is under warranty, take it to the dealer. Usual disclaimers - attempting repairs can ruin your player. These tricks are focused mainly on single disc CD players but they may work on your multi-disk changer. Here are some techniques to try when your CD gets stuck in your car CD player.
Hopefully one of them will work to free your stuck compact disc. These suggestions have been gathered from the Forums posts here.
