Hook up IPOD
I am not sure if the model you have supports iPod control, but if it has an input jack in the front, you can use a cable from the headphone jack into the Aux jack in the front of the stereo and when there is a cable inserted into the jack you will be able to select Aux with the source button.
The other option is to get a kit installed at your car stereo place that will allow you to connect it via 3rd party hardware.

Reset 3
try unplugging the changer for about 1 minute if it needs to be reset this will do it
My JVC-SD5 lights up, plays Music, but the lid won't open, any suggestions?
It seems like you're facing a little hiccup with your JVC-SD5. There's some troubleshooting ideas...
Firstly, make sure the CD player is powered off and unplugged from the electrical outlet. Safety first, right?
Now, take a good look around the edges of the CD lid. Sometimes, dust or debris can accumulate and prevent it from opening smoothly. Grab a soft, lint-free cloth and gently wipe the edges of the lid. Make sure to remove any obstacles that might be blocking it.
If that doesn't do the trick, let's try a little trick called the "manual release." Look for a small, pin-sized hole near the CD tray. It's usually located either on the front panel or underneath the CD player. Take a paperclip or a small, pointy object and insert it into that hole. Apply gentle pressure to trigger the manual release mechanism. This should pop open the lid, giving you access to your beloved CDs.
Once the lid is open, inspect the CD tray and the surrounding area for any visible signs of damage or obstructions. If everything looks fine, try closing and reopening the lid a few times to see if it starts functioning properly. Sometimes, a little exercise can go a long way in resolving minor glitches.
I hope these suggestions help you get your JVC-SD5 back in action and free you from that unwanted station! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Good luck!
