Clarification Request

Posted by FTjoe on Jan 28, 2009

does the control unit (main head unit in the dash) recognize the multidisc CD changer? in other words, are you able to toggle between the 6 disc changer, single disc changer, radio, etc?

also, are you using original CDs in the 6 disc changer? not sure if CD-R or CD-RWs will work in this model changer.

Hello There.

My guess would be that your sat nav was retro fitted, i'e not factory fitted. Who ever fitted it didn't use the correct wiring harness. It seems they may have used a wiring harness which didn't have the connection for a CD changer.

If you want to get this fixed you will need to replace the wiring harness which means stripping out the entire interior of your car, i.e seats, carpet, door panel. or you can live with the single CD which works.

If my answer has solved your problem, please rate me on fixya.

Thank you
