Clarion CD Changer in 406

Hi,

I have just bought and installed a Clarion CD Changer for my 406 (99-), but
the Clarion head unit seems to be ignoring it.

It's a second-hand changer so it may be broken, but I have heard that the
Clarion (MUX) head unit may need re-initialising in order for it to talk to
the changer. Does anyone know if this is the case? I contacted my local
dealer to see if they could help and they confirmed that the unit would need
initialising but want to charge me £40 for the work, which seems outrageous.
So, my other questions are:

1. Does this *have* to be done by a dealer? If not, how do you do it?
3. Has anyone been through this before? If so, what did the changer do before
the head unit was initialised? Could you eject the CD caddy?

Thanks,

Adrian.

Hi adrian basically your vehicle has a b.s.i (central computer) this needs to
be configurated to accept a multi-changer to present.Also the multi-function
screen will need to be configured to accept a multi-changer
.The multi-changer should still be powered -up as it is now but  it's data
will be ignored  untill its recognised on the "van comfort network" by being
configurated.The vehicle HAS to go to a main dealer to go on the diagnostic
equipment for the job to be done .
