Radio CD player won't play homemade MP3 or WAV CD's.

You can try wms or wav. I believe those formats should wok on oldet cd players. Hope it works. Good luck!

If the radio was not originally built to play MP3 format, then no. Unless the manufacturer has an update for the player's software/firmware (which I doubt they bother with) it will be impossible.

a stock day 1 03 honda headend radio and CD Player?

yes/no.? if not , post maker ,model number of unit, can look them all up. and even fix them.

try a new , real CD, from a store, called CDDA ,

like Hank Williams.

Does it play now. (yes, progress)

you never said what CD you have, there are vast types.

CDDA (all play)

CD-r few to none.

DVD none.

CR-RW, none.

mp3 , non



your CD came new with a book listing all valid formats

i bet you lost that,



the orig manuals said ., some CD-r play

and only burns (rips) from CDDA, to CDR.

never MP3 or DVD or with complex file structures

hell even new cars , fail with insane complex directory or file structures. (cept my home theatre, amp plays it all. but says it will and does, but back in dark ages of CD NO, not at aLL.)

some start to work and freeze half way but CDDA works always.

if not? the Drive is DOA> the parts are more that a new radio.

I have personally burnt every form, and complexity CD and DVD

and have tried i on many cars. (other home equipment)

today, I DONT, run USB flash , mp3 or wav.s.

CD/s are now relic tech, to me. life is too short of scratches and hang\'s, for me.

answer 2: real new hank disc , any real CDDA .

it gives and error.

that means, :

1: the driver is filthy head lens.

2: motor dont spin

3: optical sensor bad or piece of junk in the gap.

4: DISC LABLE FLOATING ABOUT.

5: MOTOR RPM TOO LOW, AND GOES err.

6: head motor stalled.

can do 20 more , but why , its dead and once cleaned still dead

the parts are too expensive and labor 10x that. why worry dead.

replace it. and upgrade (zero CD)

go to www.reliable-store.com you will get all info and
solutions there definitely

You can either replace the radio or unplug it from the wiring harness. You can find removal procedures on youtube.

It will only play burnt audio CD's. No WMA, WAV or MP3.

how to remove a bose cd/radio from dash of a GMC envoy slt cd's are stuck inside

It sounds like a cold soldered joint internally in the radio. My advice is to buy a nice aftermarket radio with an MP3 CD player. MP3 gives you the option to burn music from your computer. In addition, MP3 CDs will hold over 100 songs per CD.
It MIGHT be a poor connection at the power connector on the rear of the radio. You could try pulling out the radio and cleaning the connection before purchasing a new radio.

I believe CDA extensions are actually just shortcuts to the audio file and not the actual audio file. You will want to convert your MP3's to .wav in order to play them in your radio. Roxio and Nero version 4 and higher will automatically do this for you and a version should have come with your computer or CD burner. Just place the MP3's in the record section and select output audio CD.

The 2002 and the 2007 radio connections are markedly different. Remember that the 2007's are "satellite ready"; this changes the back side wiring configurations dramitically.
