CD malfunction

I had this same problem on the CDES600. This worked for me

1) Remove the cover off from the unit.

2) Unscrew the 5 cd changer from the back of the unit

3) Look down on the changer and push all the CDs in the unit to the front and remove them.

4) For each of the 5 trays on the front of the cd changer removes the plastic lip on the front of the tray; they about 5x1 inch big and will snap off. (You will cringe but mine did not break) I removed all five.

5) Each tray can be removed by pushing or pulling from the front. You have to really force them and they will make a clicking sound but mine did not break. Make sure all the trays are pushed all the way in. Push hard and they will click in but not break.

6) There is a wheel on the front that moves the CD selector as seen from the left side. If a tray is jammed move the wheel to select different tray and then force the tray jammed tray in.


5) Power it up and see what happens.


I think what is happening is the trays get stuck or a CD gets jammed and the sensors do not work properly. The front 5 lips also get jammed easily causing malfunction. Mine are off permanently

I also noticed when I had it apart that the fan is broken. Anyone know if could use a regular 12v computer fan on it?


Good luck!!!!

It sounds like you have put a disc in the tray that the system can not read, so it will just keep trying to read the disc over and over again. If you turn everything off by the plug and wait a few mins the whole system should stop. Put the plug back in and as soon as you turn your system on, try and press the disc open key before the lens gets a chance to start reading it again.

If this does not work you may just have a disc jammed. So you will have to get someone to check it out for you if you do not understand what you will be doing, because you may do more harm than good to your system.

Good luck.

Ismael, does the solution of Bruce work for you?
I got the same problem.
I put a CD on the Tray 2, The tray goes in, and nothing else append.
I open the door just to see, but know, the disk is on the tray 4 ???
And now, I can`t eject none of the 5 CD from the tray.

take cover off and make sure the discs are all in position, with mine the top disc was out of position I moved it and the unit worked fine after that..
