I have a single CD player in my Explorer. There is a CD in it that
will not eject. When I attempt to eject it, "Error" shows up on the
display. I bought the vehicle used.

This works on my '02 6-CD player. Might help for you.

Get a pair of business cards, or cut a 3X5 index card into two pieces,
each 3 X 2-1/2 inches. Push open the little door that covers the CD slot
- at this point, you can see the edge of the stuck CD. Gently work one
card in above the CD, and the other below the CD. Don't force anything,
just rock it in gently. At some point, the CD should suddenly slide out.

Once this has happened, it will happen again, especially if you use
homemade CDs with a glued-on paper label.

I think it might happen again.
I actually was able to play a cd in the player while I had one stuck
in there.
Finally got the cd out when I went and bought a new cd player at the
store.
Good luck....and start saving for a new radio

You were able to play one CD while another was stuck inside, in a single
CD player? Wow!

How did you mount a new CD player in that oddball opening?

About saving for a new radio - I'm not sure how necessary that will be,
depending on your level of patience. My 6-CD changer has been doing this
occasionally for several years now, and I have gotten pretty good at
reaching over and sliding the business card it. Don't be too quick to
assume the worst situation.

Just my experience.

Bill
