Possible, however, that's not the problem. You need to pull the unit out and open the housing. Chances are you have a load error, two discs on one tray, fairly common problem. It is a self repair if your electronics friendly and take your time. Do not use force! once you've pulled the jammed disc out, plug the changer back in while it's still apart and let it cycle, should be fine. If you've got some, use "Dust off" and clean out the chassis. Do not spray on the optical pickup lens! Get a Laser lens cleaning disc that uses fluid, run it thru a couple times and you should be good to go. Hope this helps. If you need further help with this, post a comment. I did 16 years in car audio in my prior life, and can walk you thru it.
Hi John, when you think about it, it could only be one of two things either the bus lead or the RCAlead as everything is in them leads to run the cd unit, So check that all leads are secure to see what happens.
Hi Open top cover, if the empty magazine was left inside the cd trays it can slide out into the playing area and jam the unit, check it like that anyhow. Sometimes you can see a small metal tab to release the magazine. However Error1 means Battery inside CD Changer needs to be replaced. And NO CD.CD error message means No CD in magazine or no magazine in CD Changer.
To fix the problem, disconnect the CD changer. take off the top plastic slide cover, with a small screwdriver slowly move the gearing so that the CD disc holder will move back to the load - unload position. Pop out the CD holder. Replace unit, reconnect the optic and power lead, switch on radio and the unit will work again. grease the moving parts with light lubricant.
