20 Most Recent Aiwa CDC-X517M CD Player Questions & Answers

The part you are looking for is called the "wiring harness" or sometimes called the "dc cord"

The best way to buy this (and you do need it to use the radio) is to find a local repair center that repairs aiwa car stereos. Ask them if they can order the wiring harness for an Aiwa CDC-X517M. I don't know what Aiwa charges for them, but it should not cost more than about $30 or $40. Some are cheaper and some are a little more.

I did a search for it on google and could not find anything. Very unusual.

The four spots you refer to are the RCA jacks to connect to an external amplifier. 2 are red and 2 are white.

That thing that plugs in above the 15 amp fuse is for your wiring harness.

The circular thing is a din cable jack and that is used for an external CD changer.

Once you get the wiring harness you should take it and the radio to a place that does car stereo installations and they can do the rest for you.

I hope this helps you out, and if it does I would really appreciate a good rating. Most people we help here never rate your help :( and we do most of this for free hoping for a good rating as a thank you for the help :).

Hope you have a great day,

You're going to try to fix something but can hardly spell any part of your question correctly... Makes me question giving you a schematic.

Hi if the power is on then it is not the car fuse, but the radio itself. I will direct you to the aiwa radio thread.

try disconnecting the battery to see if that will reset the device. Let me know what the outcome is and we will go from there to fix this. Just make sure to respond here in a timely matter so that we can get you on your way as soon as possible.

good luck

Fuse #9 feeds the power outlet and fuse #18 feeds the lighter outlet (this is the one I believe your having trouble with).

They are both located in the fuse box in the trunk, next to the battery. If you open the trunk and lift the floor up you'll see them hiding under there. The numbers should be called out on the cover for the fuse box.

I'm sorry but I believe you have this posted in the wrong product category? Please re-post the question in the proper category if this is the case, otherwise you have my apologies. This is the car and truck problem category

is your cd player aftermarket or oem if oem look in owners manuel u will have to do a soft reset on the radio if not disconect positive battery terminal and hit the power button a few times wait 2 min and replace cable.

Hi,
Please describe the problem . Regards

Get two nail files, cover the ends of them with scotch tape, and insert them one at a time so that one goes over the disc, and the other goes under... Press them together firmly and pull slowly while wiggling left and right gently.

This may work, but may not - most CD players have a lock in them, and the disc platter goes up to lock the disc in place as well, so that it can't move while spinning. Depends on the disc's position in the player, really.

I'm guessing that you mean the car battery, this is normal on most cars

This should help you in your installation.
