If the radio works, there might already be a CD in the player. If the radio is NOT working, check the fuse. Another option would be to disconnect the battery for a minute, or so, to reset everything. Just some initial thoughts that may or may not work.
try dis-connecting the battery for 5mins which may allow you to re-install a code but you will need to get correct code as if keep typing anything it will lock again.
You need enter the unlock CODE for extract your CDs; check in your owners manual (any label in the last page .
THEFTLOCK is designed to discourage theft of your vehicle’s radio. The feature works automatically by learning a portion of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). If the radio is moved to a different vehicle, it will not operate. If the radio is removed from your vehicle, the original VIN in the radio can be used to trace the radio back to your vehicle.
With THEFTLOCK® activated, the radio will not operate if stolen.
Have a 2005 Freelander and the battery died. When I re-charged the battery, the CD changer had a CD ERR 1 message. Could not eject or load a CD and the radio worked. I turned off the radio and pulled off the cover on top of the CD changer. I removed the two screws that hold the frame around the CD changer. I turned the CD back on and the CD went through a test on each CD. I know this solution might not work for everyone, but it worked for me
When you bought the car your dealer must have given you that code or you can call them and let them know your registeration details they will give u the code for free all you have to do is to give them your details.
Good Luck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it sounds like it may have a bad laser or even dirty try removing the cover and gently cleaning the lens if you dont feel confident i would suggest you put it in for a repair usually removing the battery lead for up to half an hour will reset the system and put it back to its original state but its suggested if it doesnt then its internal usually the laser.
