Car Forum / Alfa Romeo Cars / March 2005Knackered CD player
The CD player headunit in my 2003 156 JTD has become a cropper... There is a disc in the player but it refuses to play it or eject it. When selecting CD it says on the screen 'NO CD' Any ideas of how to get this fixed or is it a dealer job? Its still under warranty so will the dealer recognise this as a warranty job?

My old Blaupunkt used to do this all the time. Now have a nice Pioneer. Shame about the speakers *yeesh*. :( Neil > How cold is it in your motor? Is the CD scratched?

The problem is that I cannto EJECT the CD in there at the moment so cannot play any other CD's Domestos >It was the cold snap we had in the UK a few weeks ago that did the damage. >The problem is that I cannto EJECT the CD in there at the moment so cannot >play any other CD's > >Domestos Unfortunately for you, my resolution was this. I took the 156 back to where I bought it. Their mech got into my car and jabbed the EJECT button. After 3 weeks of it being stuck (even checked on the way there) the bloody thing worked; out came my stuck CD. He tutted about the CD being scratched and he knew this was "bad" as he was a part-time DJ. Clearly you need someone in possession of magic fingers.

Then again if you have driven around with the heater on, that should have done the trick. I'm out of ideas now. >>> How cold is it in your motor? Is the CD scratched?

I've sometimes taken CDs out of the player and damn near burnt my fingers! Halmyre |
