I have a 2001 F-150 Super Crew Off Road truck. The single disc factory stereo, has had a cleaner run through it, it has been sprayed with canned air. BUT, it kicks the disc back out, calling it a "Bad Disc".

The truck has 233k on it, and never had a problem with the stereo.

Any suggestions ?? OR should I be looking for a new stereo ??

Thanx

 

Anyone ????

 

hello,
i had the same problem last year, it turned out that i had a cracked coil pack and the voltage leak made my radio do the "bad disk" dance. i also couldn't start the truck when it was damp or raining. its sounds weird but its true.

 

Thanx, for the reply. Truck starts, runs fine. May be time for a new flat screen stereo !!!

 

Same thing happened to my 2001 last year. The radio ran perfectly except for the "bad disc" notification. I pulled the OEM radio & installed a Jensen VM9214 with a TV screen, MP3 input, USB connection, back up camera detection ability. The OEM radio is shelved, waiting to be re-installed when / if I trade this baby in.
