Re-setting of cd changer

I have just installed a Mercedes CD changer in my glove box, but now have an error message of "no discs" even when the cartridge is loaded with 6 discs. How do I re-set my cd changer and where do I find the re-set button?

A couple of different possibilities here but this is a typical problem when it comes to the MB cd changers. Before ruling the cd changer bad, check the spring settings on the sides of the changer. Make sure they are in the 'H' position since it sits in the glovebox. The Mercedes cd changers don't have a reset button. 95% of the time its the cd changer that is bad when this scenario happens. Its caused by a linkage that gets knocked out of place internally of the cd changer. Also try not to use burned or homemade cd's as they can also cause the cd changer not to read the discs anymore.If your cd changer is brand new or a factory rebuild then the dealer should change it out no problem since MB cd changers are known for this problem. Also the version coding needs to done to configure the D2B fiber optic ring properly.

Hi, Joe here to help. The cd changer is at fault. You need to replace the changer. The system is on a fiber optic loop which cuts out the sound if can not complete that loop.

How to change air cond. filter lexus gs300 2000, has 6 disc cd changer where everyone says filter is.

It should be behind the glove box which you have to remove to get access to the filter door.
Is the CD changer directly behind the glove box ? Because in my car the changer is above the main part of the box, not behind it.

I get E-01 error of my cd changer

The fault is actually inside the CD changer, when one disc is selected the changer moves the gearing inside to slot from one CD to the other.
While this operation is happening the selection arm jams !!
Then giving an error at the radio display..

To fix the problem, disconnect the CD changer from the trunk of the car,
take off the top plastic slide cover,
with a small screwdriver slowly move the gearing so that the CD disc holder will move back to the load - unload position.

Pop out the CD holder.

Replace unit, reconnect the optic and power lead, switch on radio and the unit will work again,

grease the moving parts with light lubricant

Good Luck

I was told that the laser in my 2002 C240 6 disc changer is weak. It came with the car, and its in the glove compartment, I was told its alpine, and it has the mercedes logo on it. I was quoted $200 to fix...

Mercedes has had issues with their cd changers for years. The price they quoted you is not to bad actually as a brand new Mbz cd changer can be a little pricey. If you buy a new one they will ask for your old one as a core so make sure to ask for a reconditioned one. They call it reconditioned because the housings are not brand new but all the interior components are. Your stock cd changer has the connection for the fiber optic wires. If you go with aftermarket you will lose that connection and will not be able to control the cd player from the radio or the steering wheel controls.

Unplug the cable behind the cd stack box and plug it back in and see if that helps. It worked for me. I get this problem once in a while and this always helped.
