Great thread, got mine out opened only to find the DRIVE COG in the pictures stripped. But I now have a ebay one for £45 and of course I now have two cassettes.

Thanks OP, I can once again listen to CDs on the move. I'm keeping the repair a secret so my son still can't play his rubbish CDs

Usually start mine again with the whack on the side method but after seeing this if it happens again it will be an out of the car and dismantle job, once again a member on the forum comes to the rescue

Big help .... thanks
Bartonrover
I found your (this) old thread which has been a big help. Many thanks. My glovebox based unit was showing the No Disc message and had been exhibiting the same symptoms - ie. unit trying to pull out and check each CD tray but failing. As it turned out, mine just appeared to be a case of everything a "bit stiff" rather than cogs becoming unmeshed like yours had. I found manually encouraging my unit to pull the CD trays out was REALLY stiff. Manually pushing the mechanism back the other way was a bit easier. So I dabbed very small amounts of Sewing Machine oil, using a cotton bud soaked in it, onto "your" cogs, plus other moving bits and then kept manually operating it until it felt a bit looser. Connected back into the car (minus cover, and in the footwell rather than fully installed in the glovebox) and watched the mechanism happily pull out all the trays and started playing the first CD. Repeated the check a few times .... and it failed again! So.... back indoors, more manual operation, a couple more dabs of oil and more manual operations. Now it's back in the car and working great! Touch wood..... So ..... thanks again! John

CD Check
My cassette was jammed and not coming out. Error message "CD Check". I spent 2 hours messing about with it and made no progress. changer out. top cover off. Lube applied in all sorts of places. The carrier moved and went up but it would not push the CD back into the tray. Zilch nothing. The gear on the top was in a position where the switch interlock was holding it in place. I could not turn it by hand.
Then I watched this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UO--7A3mACM Left index finger on the green button. 4 Oz pin hammer in the right hand two strikes and it was out. A bit more lube in various other places as it cycled back and forth and hey presto all is well in the world. Sorted in 5 minutes. |

Problem solved
Thanks for this info - just taken my changer apart, and although I couldn't really see a problem with that worm gear on my unit, with a little gentle digital persuasion it was definitely meshing, and so I put it all back together again and it all works perfectly
Just got to order up a new head unit an pop that in |

My cd changer in recently bought Tourer had gremlins in it when I got it. It would work ok for a while then would cycle through the cd check procedure only to say No Discs even though there were six discs in it !
The old thump on the case worked a couple of times but when that didn't work the next time I took the cover off and gave the mechanism inside a thump. That got it working for a while only for it to stop working again. So this time took casing off,loosened the whole mechanism from the case,checked for any loose connections etc,none found,so gave it a damn good blast with the airline,put it back together again and,touch wood,it's been working flawlessly ever since. Might not be something anyone would advise you to try but hey,had nothing to lose as it wasn't working anyway |
