CD won't play, is ejected with error code on display

AUTHOR OF THIS ARTICLE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER TO ANY OBJECT OR PERSONS, AND FOLLOWING MY ADVICE IS PURELY AN ENDEAVOR YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR EMBARKING ON.

"Play" errors often occur due to the format of the recording of the CD. If this was a "factory store purchased" disc, or one that previously was playable in this unit, then that would not be the reason. That won't cause an eject problem either.

One big reason that can cause both these issues is if you have lost your "memory" 12vdc. Usually the memory 12vdc is spliced onto an orange or yellow wire of the player. With the ignition switch "off" there should be 12vdc on the memory wire. With the ignition set to "RUN" you should observe 12 volts DC on 2 separate wires (the memory wire (as described) and the accessory wire (usually the red wire on the player) . A temporary trouble shooting trick is (if you have lost the memory 12vdc, is to temporarily connect your known good 12vdc from the ignition (accessory) to both the red and memory wires, (leaving the car's memory wire disconnected) and see if it now ejects. If it does, you just need to track down the cause of the loss of the memory volts- usually the fuse labeled "clock" but sometimes "lighter" is used, even "dome" light circuits.

Also I have encountered eject and play issues if the gears inside the player get out of sync. Unfortunately, only by opening up the casing of the player can you access these gears, and even then it is "hit and miss" as to re-aligning these gears. Prior to opening up the unit, try to locate a reset button on the back or on the front perhaps under the removable face.

Dirt and lint on the reader portion inside can cause errors playing. Dirt and grime on the moving parts can cause errors and binding that result in poor ejection.

Beyond this point, unless the unit is warrantied, go shopping for a new unit, or do as I have...transfer your music to a thumb drive and buy a unit that takes it!

You need to pull the CD player and remove the lid to access your discs. They're great units and once you get unjammed it should be good to go.

my dvd player will not let me load a cd -- can "force: it in - takes it almost all the way then ejects it

98 T&C Chrysler /CD Problem Player Error ????

comes from your 12 volt battery that is installed in your RV/ Motorhome, which also runs some of your lights in the RV/Motorhome too.

Cd player wont play or eject the cd.

This is an indication that the "ACC" line is not getting the 12 volts to turn on the radio. Check the fuses, it may have blown one. The "ACC" is the red wire that comes off the back of the radio harness. It needs a 12 volt supply when the key is turned on for the radio to work properly. When this is missing, you will have the conditions you have described. The yellow wire is for a constant 12 volts even when the radio is off and the car is off. Since you do get the eject and the clock display you have a good ground, so that is not an issue. You just need to find out why you do not have the 12 volts on the red wire when the key is turned on in the car.
