I need to know how to take the indash cd player out of a 2001 530I bmw

There could be several reasons why the CD cartridge is not ejecting from your 2003 BMW X5 E53. Here are some steps you can try to get it out and potential causes of the issue:

1. Check the CD player: First, make sure that the CD player is on and functioning properly. If the player is not working, it may not be able to eject the cartridge. Check the player for any error messages or signs of malfunction.
2. Press the eject button: Try pressing the eject button on the CD player. If the cartridge is still not ejecting, you may need to try a different method.
3. Use a thin object: If the eject button is not working, you can try using a thin object, such as a paperclip or needle, to press the eject button. Insert the object into the small hole near the eject button and push gently. This may release the cartridge.
4. Check the cartridge: If the cartridge is still not ejecting, there may be a problem with the cartridge itself. Check the cartridge for any signs of damage or wear. Make sure that the CDs are properly inserted into the cartridge.
5. Check the CD player mechanism: If the cartridge is not damaged and the CD player is functioning properly, the issue may be with the CD player mechanism. In this case, you may need to take the car to a mechanic or a BMW dealership for repair.

It's worth noting that some BMW models have a security feature that prevents the CD cartridge from ejecting if the battery has been disconnected or the car has been jump-started. If this is the case, you may need to enter a security code to unlock the CD player before you can eject the cartridge. Check your car's manual for instructions on how to enter the security code.

I'm afraid the coins did cause a shortage in the CD player, knocking out the player. A tech should replace it, when you still want to play disks. I hope your son did learn something, because it won't be cheap in a BMW to replace the CD player.

those are just slots for storage, it doesnt play cd s at all. your indash single cd and the one near the glove box are the only one that plays.

Just Purchased a 2004 Maserati CambioCorsa Coupe with a Blaupunkt remote 5 disc CD Player in the trunk. The indash info center recognizes its existence but will not communicate. The Blaupunkt will accept a CD but will not play it or release it. I cannot see any model numbers Etc, any ideas anyone.

I undid the battery for a few and then hooked everything back up and the cd player finally ejected the cd.

it may of had a seperate cd changer or hold 6 in dash. with the indash feature there should be a load butoon

Try turning your cd disc over, it may be installed upside down!

You player cannot read because copy write enabled ,so you need to play only original CDs ...

Good luck....

you can an adapter plate may be needed depending on the style indash radio you pick and an accessible changer mounting location needs to be located prior to installation.

Remove the player and have it repaired, that is all you can do.
