Make sure you have power going to both the red and yellow wires. If power is going only to the yellow wire, it will eject cds, however both the red and yellow wires need to have voltage going to them in order for the radio to work.

SOURCE: clarion DXZ645MP

I have now gone through 3 of these units and encountered that exact same issue. The first came from a Tweeter store, the second from Ebay, and arrived with a CD stuck in it (I returned it), and the third from Ebay, ad that one just broke last week. It clicks when I try to load a CD. The only reason that I kept buying them is because I have an old BMW, and the black face and orange/amber illumination match my interior exactly. I am trying to contact Clarion, but the 'support' link on the site is not active. I tried to remove the stuck CD from the first unit to no avail. Basically, it is broken, and even if you remove the CD, the load/eject mechanism is broken and you can no longer play a CD in that unit.

SOURCE: Clarion M5675 won't turn on

Take the stereo all the way out and hook the black wire to the negative terminal and the yellow and the red wire to the positive terminal on a charged car battey. If it still does not turn on you may have fuse in the back of the deck. If not it's probably fried.

SOURCE: Hi there, I have a Clarion radio/CD player that

There are usually two options 

1...See if you can tease the jammed CD out through the slot using another (old) CD

If not

2...The player will have to removed from the dashboard and opened up to remove the jammed CD.

Make sure you have the Security Code before removing the player.

.
 
If you do not have the code  then POST ANOTHER QUESTION

quoting the radio MAKE+MODEL plus ALL the LETTERS+NUMBERS on ANY LABELS ,BARCODES or STAMPED IN THE METAL CASING
 

note: Unfortunately not all radios can be decoded using the Serial Number

I have 2014 impala LTZ, i cant eject the CD from the player, how can i solve this problem

You need to remove the player from the vehicle and send it in for repair. If you check the internet under GM radio repair all kinds of repair centers will come up. Make sure to ask for you CD back once the unit is repaired and sent back.

you have to open the unit cover to remove the CD, its probably tried to eject it and its past the point that shows one in the slot which is causing the player to say NO CD , once opened, use great care in moving anything, and keep track of where everything goes,

My cd won't eject. the car recently had the altenator replaced and everything in the car was reset. could this have affected the cd player?

Some players get set to a default like when it was fresh out of the box when power is removed. Since you radio from the factory knows there is no disc in it, it thinks there is nothing to eject. Push the reset button and your disc should eject.

Turn the radio off first and then disconnect the battery for 2 min then reconnect the battery. This should reset your radio and then you can eject your CD, and reset your stations and clock. Good luck

CD player is not working.

I would first try removing the fuse to the radio/cd player, see if that resets the system and get the cd out.

Hope this helps some.

CD stuck in CD Player - 1998 Mazda Protege

It might be a Bose system. I usually remove stuck CD's by grasping the edge with a pair of tweezers and pulling slowly, there will be some resistance. Try to reset first by removing the fuse for about 30 seconds and after it powers up again (don't turn it on yet) push the eject button.

CD stuck in tray for DXZ648RMP player

Figure out what fuse controls the CD player and pull the fuse out for a minute (or more), then replace it (theory being that the fuse acts as a reset button). If you cannot find the fuse, you can disconnect the negative battery cable, but you'll lose your radio and other settings. This trick seems to have the greatest chance of success overall.
Turn your ignition on to the accessory position. Hold the eject button down for 2 or 3 minutes. Depending on your make/model, the eject button may flash. When the button stops flashing (or when a few minutes has passed), release the button and immediately press it again (theory being that the two minutes of "work" followed by a quick break will fool the player into releasing the disc when you press the eject button again).
Try using some tweezers, needle nose pliers or hemostats (every tool kit needs a hemostat or two!) to pull the CD out while pressing the eject button with power going to the player (theory being that the disc is so slick the player can't eject it without help). Some people report success just by pulling the disc out with the tweezers without power to the player and without pressing the eject button.
If your player has a small hole in the front of it, like most personal computer CD players do, straighten a paperclip and push the clip straight into the hole to manually release the catch. Some players have a groove under the CD door instead of a hole. Look for a hole about the size of the paperclip and don't mistake an emergency release hole for an earphone jack.

Jvc kd-66060 cd player problems

if the car battery had gone dead while it was in the garage you may have to press the reset button on the radio( if there is one, it would be behind the face and there will be raised print that says reset) if there is no reset button you can unplug the radio harness for about a minute or so to reset it.sometimes the fuse for the 12 volt ingnition can be the problem( on your radio it would be the fuse connected the red wire-if it is ejecting and giving you display the fuse connected to the yellow wire is good-
