it sounds to me like you may have a bad switch. sometimes if you get a switch that does not open all of the way, it sends a message to the microprocessor and locks it up. when this happens, the switch needs to be replaced.

Hi,
Please describe the problem . Regards

two reasons why CD/DVD players will not read
1. the optical lens is bad
2. the motor is not spinning at the correct rpm

Do you have wiring instructions for the stereo or do you also need those?

do you have the yellow wire going to a constant power source?

probably a 25

if they are the same radio, you can definitely swap cd mechs.

Go in to menu and turn off the demo mode

There may be dust inside the unit on the laser. Try shoting some compressed air in the CD drive area to clean out. Also, ensure that the CD surface is clean, and try a different factory made audio CD. Sometimes CD players have problems reading "burned" CD's.

Hi,

An auxiliary input allows you to select an external source and play it through the cd player's amplifier. It's often used for iPods and MP-3 players. Typically you just need an inexpensive patch cable that connects the headphone output from your portable player to the input on the CD player. After that you can select "AUX" as another source like CD or Tuner, and whatever's playing on the portable unit will be heard through the speakers.
Auxiliary inputs can be on the front or the rear of the CD player. Front aux inputs are typically 3.5mm stereo plugs, similar to a small headphone jack. Rear aux inputs can be RCA jacks or a 3.5mm jack. If you have a CD player with a rear aux input, a cable needs to be connected at the time of installation. Then the other end can be routed to whatever location in the vehicle you want to keep your portable player while you're using it with the CD player.
Front aux jacks are more convenient for quick connecting/disconnecting the portable player, but they tend to wear out over time.
Let us know if you have somethin more to ask else accept the suggestion.
Thank You for contacting Fixya

it sounds like you have got the permanent live and the switched ignition live the wrong way round. if you check which positive 12v supply goes off when you turn the ignition off and remove the key and connect that one to the one which stays 12v when the key is turned off and vice versa that should solve your problem

it is possible ;you may have a bad switch. if you have a multimeter, try checking all the switches. if one or more is less than a few megaohms, it may be bad.

try taking the deck out of the car and unhooking it for a while that should reset it to factory settings

check for a logo that shows a speaker with a cross(X) across. just switch this back. this is also available on the remote. You could normally find this on the top side so as to mute easily when in a traffic junction. Check if this button is jammed. Also check if the display shows a mute , if not the sound reduction could be a different issue related to the audio output. check if any speaker connections are short, or speakers connections touching the body. Chek on the wiring once again with a multimeter , for any shorting, correct positve voltage and good ground. hope this helps. Good day

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

this is due to insert area with other problems
