Clarion CDC1235 CD Changer

I would say to take it back regardless of what the problem is. I would say the unit is bad. Does the remote work the other functions? if it does not then the remote could be bad, if the remote does work the other functions, I would think the unit is bad.

out of focus.
if all of your discs have the same error code 6, it is optical lens problem. have it checked to the nearest service center.

Beefy, I think your caps button is stuck.. anyway,

That is probably a dirty lens problem, try first cleaning the lens.

I have a Clarion CD changer for sale.

yeah as far as i know they will work fine.

yeah, this will work

CDAC ER2 usually means a cd is stuck, not reading properly, or that the magazine is stuck or broken. take out all cds and try it with a known good cd (one that played ok in the past). if that doesn't work, try unplugging the unit and plugging it back in.

if it still doesnt work, take the magazine out, power it up so that you get the "no mag" error, then insert the magazine with no discs and see if it still errors out with ER2. if it does, then the magazine is bad, or the changer is bad..

if it works, then try the known good disc again, if it works now, your magazine was probably stuck, or one of the other cd's isn't liked by the changer.

hope this helps,
