CD Changer problem
I have a ’00 with a 6 disk changer in the center console and I am getting an error msg on the radio stating the magazine is empty. Obviously I have CD’s in the magazine, any ideas on what could be wrong? I could pull the changer out, but who would work on it and any ideas on what kind of labor I would be looking at? If the labor to fix it is way out of line is there another option? Like an in dash changer from a newer model? I would like to keep the look stock, thus no aftermarket if possible. Thanks for any help.

Try running a cleaner disc or unplug the unit sometimes a reset helps but be sure you dont have security coded radio not sure if ford has that but I have dealt these issues in the past on toyotas.What is the product #?post it if you can find it!appreciate ya!

Lostaprop I love that avatar you either are good with pics or a google digging son of a gun.I hate to say but if none of these little tricks work and it will not read disc its probably junk,the laser eye is usually bad.appreciate ya!

we just had this problem and I was about to order a new cd player.
My son took the whole unit out and disassembled it. I think two cd's were jambed or got jambed into one slot.
all seems to be fine now.

That can happen he sounds pretty sharp.Those things when disassembled can get confusing.I had to fix my home unit like that same problem.Natsoundup has got a good point remove the unit try to look for jams.appreciate ya!
