Car Forum / Acura Cars / June 2004stuck CDs
The other day my CD player stopped working. I had to take my 2000 RX in for an oil change so I asked my service writer to take a look. Almost without looking up he asked if I was using original or home burned CDs. I told him home burned. He said that was the problem and that home burned cds are thicker and jam up the changer in the trunk. He said sometimes you can wiggle & jiggle the player in the trunk and it will eject the cartridge. So far that hasn't worked. Any other thoughts out there about getting my CDs out of the changer?

Of course if you have an adhesive label on the CD-R / CR-RW then that indeed could be a problem. >Commercial ("original") CD/DVD media and CD-R / CD-RW, and DVD media have the same thickness (1.2mm).

When CDs stick in my 2002 TLS in-dash changer I "unstick" them by gently inserting a credit card. Just have to stick the card half an inch or so into the slot. Works well. RWP Stick the unit in your freezer for a while or maybe pack some dry ice around it if removal is too difficult. Perhaps the small amount of contraction caused by the cold might be sufficient for the extra clearance you need? |
