The system control is essentially a link between units.
This is required for the remote to access all the units as the re receiver is housed in the RE-5 unit and relays the signals between the units via 3.5 inch mono jack, generally a short black cable to interlink the units.The RE-5 have 1 and add on units have 2.

your SOL . I have the same problem. Its a proprietary cable. Ive only seen a couple come up on ebay, but missed both . 

You don't need a Nakamichi CD player. Any CD player will work. Just look at the manufacturing date, you don't want one made before 2000 or so, they got a lot better about that time. The Sonys are generally good and easy to find.

I feel your pain......and did extensive research on the internet.....Google "LX470, CD, err3" or "Nakamichi, CD, err3".

Take a look at this excellent explanation of how to dismantle and remove the head unit and retreive the jammed discs. I have used it and fished out three discs, but the CD Player still shows ERR3. An hour of work, so be prepared.

This is a site that provides repair services once you get the head unit out. http://www.carstereohelp.com/lexus.htm
"Six CD changer, Err message in display, will not play CD's, will not eject or accept CD's. Before repair, disconnect one of the car battery terminals for several minutes. This acts as a reset and may bring the changer back to working conditions. Otherwise, repair rate $385."

The Lexus dealer wants $750 to replace with a refurbished unit. Don't go down that route. Read these nightmare stories.

Don't buy a stray unit off of ebay, it is probably jammed or broken with the ERR3 meesage too!

If the home repair method doesn't work, then it will be better to just upgrade to a new head unit. I am buying a Jensen VM9215HD to get a multimedia system with all the trimmings and full iPod control for $460. Available on ebay or online stores. I'll install the unit myself, but you can get the unit and the job done at a local auto sound store for under $1000.

Good luck,

make sure the time is displayed and press the "set" button. once the time starts flashing use the "preset" buttons to set the hour and the "volume" buttons to set the minutes. press "set" again when done.

Where about are you? I'm in London UK and do have MB100 HU in my car. I could get you the manual photo copied for you. Let me know and we will take it from there. Chandru

return it?

my first CD-500 had problems too. i just returned it and got a new one and the new one works perfectly.

it seems these stereos are hit-or-miss. i believe they are made in Malaysia now, not Japan, and that Nakamichi is not really 'Nakamichi' any more.

but i still love my CD-500.

Same here. *sighs*

The system may need to reset. Unplugged the amp from the power source completely and let it rest for at least 5 minutes.

The illumination can only be controlled from the main remote. Adjust the prongs inside the remote and this should fix the issue.
