Wiring I feel like such a girl! The last time I installed this changer was 3 years ago and I don't remember having any problems, Now I need to transfer it to my 95 lincoln town car and u would think I didn't know the difference between a hot wire and an antenna. 2 questions: Do I need an adapter for my fm antebba (won't fit) and is so were do I get one? Where do I splice (if I need 2 splice) into my power at? PLEASE HELP ME! Raina

Very first thing. If it won’t turn on, unplug it, and check the cord....especially if you have, or have had, a rabbit that has already chewed through every other wired devices you have ie: TV, satellite dishes, DVD players, other electrical cords.
I got my humidifier year before last and only used it a few times that year. Our humidity was fine until now, so the humidifier was still new as far as I was concerned. I checked every online help suggestion before I remembered Buster. Sure enough....exposed and partially chew wiring. I thanked God that I hadn’t been shocked.
Thank you, Daddy, for teaching this 70 year old grandma how to splice wiring and install other electrical wiring when I was a teenager. I miss you so much.
CAUTION: UNLESS YOU KNOW EXACTLY HOW TO SPLICE WIRING DON’T THINK YOU CAN FIGURE IT OUT. TAKE YOUR APPLIANCE TO A SPECIALIST TO GET A BRAND NEW WIRE PLACED ON YOUR APPLIANCE. I CANNOT EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH. IN FACT, TAKE IT TO AN ELECTRICIAN ANYWAY.

i also remember sad people like you who feel the need to post things anonymously like this to boost their egos. LOLL!1!!!1!one

To find battery drain, disconnect battery + and put an amp meter between cable and battery to see how much drain. Very small drain (0.0x amps) is normal for computer controlled cars. More than this, remove fuses one at a time to try to locate which section of circuits has the problem. If you remove a fuse and the drain stops, you then figure out everything fed by that circuit and trace down the problem. If no fuse has any effect, you either have bad alternator diodes, or bad relay stuck in on position. I have sometimes located bad relays by having a fully charged battery, hook it up and wait 10 or 15 minutes, then carefully feel each relay to find one which is hot to the touch. BINGO!

The belts last about 15 years, less depending on usage. Sounds like it's time for a belt replacement. Check out softduds on eBay, he can replace belts and adjust these players, he has lots of experience.

sounds like your control module is defective, put you hand on the control unit and see if you can feel the noise.

Well your changer has seen better days, but not dead yet. It can be repaired, but it's gonna cost ya. There are pro's, and con's in the debate between repairing, and buying new, but that's for you to decide.

Alpine makes some of the best, and longest lasting product's in the car audio industry, so getting it repaired isn't a bad idea, but the cost of changers has come down ALOT in the last 6 years so it may not be any cheaper to get it fixed. If you like the Alpine brand, then fix the one ya have, because Alpine no longer manufactures CD changers.

Check the changer and see if cds are inserted correctly or if 2 cds are in one slot.

Grandpa Bubba, did you ever find the software? I know some time has past, but i have the CD
