radio/cd player

I have a 2003 F250 Super Duty with the factory radio with the 6 cd player. I love this radio unfortunately the cd part has jammed. I can't get my cd in or out or to change. AGGHHH! I would love another just like it but I doubt they are available so what are y'all using? It needs to be super simple just like the one from the factory. lol

Bronco I have a 6 cd player out of my 2003 F250 works good, replaced with a Bluetooth radio/cd. Where are you located?

I took a thin, flat edged piece of metal (in my case it was a flat, metal key chain fob ... perhaps a wide slot screwdriver might work), and I gently pushed in on the CD while working the CD & eject buttons. After about 4 tries, it engaged and ejected the CD like normal. No problem since. Can't say I really fixed it because I don't really know what was broken if anything at all. I think it just jammed and then un-jammed with some gentle persuasion. Mine works like new again.

Bronco if you want my stock 6cd player PM me your address and I will box it up and send it to you, I don't want anything for it as it will just sit on shelf in garage, I have no use for it, there is nothing wrong with it just replaced for Bluetooth radio about 3 weeks ago.

When mine died I ended up putting in a "newer" unit from a Mountaineer. I got an Audiophile model with more power and put in some Pioneer 3-way speakers in the doors and that made a big difference in sound for me.

I don't know what's still available now but here's my post from 2010 (post #2): https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...ml#post8778450
