CD changer

The 6 disc CD changer isnt working in my 98 EB. When I try to use it it either says "no disc" or it runs thru each disc but doesnt play anything. Does it need a cleaning or is something not working right? Anyone ever have this problem before?

This happened to me at first. I had loaded the cd upside down in the changer cartridge. Also might want to see if it's set all the way down in.

My Kenwood 10 CD-changer crapped out recently. It won't eject from the unit, and won't play either. Damn shame, it's not really that old. I don't know if it's reparable or even worth it. I might just buy a new one.

This has happened to me a few times, usually during the summer months here in VA. My remedy is to remove the cartridge from the CD player; cycle the radio from CD to FM and back to CD; re-insert the cartridge. That seeems to work for me. I've heard people suggest a cleaning, but I'm not sure what constitutes a good "cleaning."

I wouldn't know how to clean something like that, unless you spray electronics cleaner in there. I'll try your method once I get the cartridge out, which is my problem.
