Glove box CD player removal... - Page 2

Lynyrd Skynner · 24th July 2016, 11:26

Ok chaps the CD player is out , now what I was thinking of doing is to get some power on it to get the CDs out , the plug on the CD player has a 10 way plug and is wired thus.....anyone know which of these wires supplies the power to eject the CD cassette.....
Pin 1 - red
Pin 2- Green
Pin 3- Blue
Pin 4- NOT USED
Pin 5- Brown
Pin 6- White
Pin 7- Blue
Pin 8- Black
Pin 9- NOT USED
Pin 10- Yellow

I was thinking of useing a 12volt car battery to get the power it may not work so please anyone who knows better please say this is just my thinking which could be completely wrong .
I just want enough power to pop the CD casette out ....

BTW The CD autochanger is a ALPINE XQE 105560

Thanks.....

The changer is 'controlled' via the K-Bus, there is no power feed to eject the CD cassette. You may have to dismantle the changer to get it out.

In the words of James May " Oh C++K !!" ......back to the drawing board.....

And there is a 'How to' -' Ice & Navigation', near the bottom of page 2 which may help.
