1.I have a cd stuck in the head unit its been in there for 6 months and will not eject 2. Now my battery went dead in the car and unit will not turn on past the security code I did not realize that we needed to set up a code when it was installed is the a factory default code

Battery keeps dying and radio defaultig to am

Remove the face plate and clean the contacts on both the head and the radio. It sounds like a bad connection, The base and head use serial data to talk to each other(control).If one of these connections are bad the unit will not work properly.

if you have a genuine unit it may be connected to the CPU or need resetting after the battery change.

After my car battery went dead my cd player is stuck. It won't play, or eject and it thinks there are no cds in it when in fact it is full. HELP!

Same thing happens to my wifes Tucson. If you put in a CD it turns the radio on. We have had to do this a couple times now and it works every time. Of course if there is a CD in there it won't work....as a result we make sure to always eject the CD before turning the car off. There was a recall with the brake control switch as well the radiop in the 06' are a known lemon however the unit has a reduced warranty which does not match the bumper to bumper warranty. Also the air bag sensor is a recall (I believe). The daytime headlights will stay on sometimes too for some reason which is what drains our battery, Good luck!

Ok this may seem barbaric but it worked on mine.......Hit the top of the stereo a couple of times and see if it corrects the problem.

Did you get this solved? Mine is doing the same thing. If so, can you email me the solution at [email protected].

THANKS! :)

I have the exact same problem with my 05 shaker 500--okay that's 3 of us. We need a recall and a free new stereo system with labor included

i resolved this myself in the end.
I unplugged the audio & power cables whilst the stereo and engine was running.
Then plugged back in.
I turned the engine off and stereo off as well.
I then unplugged audio and power again from the back of the CDX, left it unplugged for 10 minutes whilst the engine was still off.
I then plugged the leads back in and turned the engine on. the stereo recognised the CDX, but stayed on displaying "CD Checking". I switched to radio for 20 seconds, turned back to CDX and it selected CD 1 and has been good ever since.

I'm rather pleased with myself!

power off. open the cd changer unit. look for the motor that, when turning, performs the eject mechanism. now turn this motor by hand in the proper direction until cassette is fully ejected.
