Not Playing CDs
Got a frustrating issue with my CD player I hope someone can help with please..
I have an 07 SE D3 with the Logic 7 6 CD player set-up, radio and Aux work fine, however when I play any CD it stops playing at the same point on track one only. You can’t move on to other tracks etc.
Bought a CD laser cleaner and tried that but still no joy, does anyone have any ideas?
TIA Chris

something to do with the motor/arm which moves the head from the inside of the disc to the outside.
The chrome bits may just require a bit of grease?

Watching with interest! I get the same symptom though usually stops playing after approx 40 seconds with an ‘invalid disc’ message.Best Regards,
Dave.

Could always try a hard reset. Anything that played up with my head unit was always resolved with a hard reset. However to be honest yours does sound more mechanical but worth a try. Only takes 5 minsJames favourite hobby is writing in the third person.

The odd thing is this issue comes just after hard wiring a dash cam and enabling the rear camera. Feels like something I’ve done has upset the CD player. I hate it when things don’t work as they should. Grrr!

I do indeed, with the one Johnny Cash 8 track playing on an endless loop.
That’s me back to therapy tomorrow.

Mine is also doing this. After three and a bit tracks.

Reading up on this issue with CD players in general, the cause is either a dirty lens or the track the laser moves on needing lubrication. To attempt a fix I’d need to open the unit up. Anyone tried this? I’ve never looked inside a multi-disc player?

I've not been able to cure this issues so have bought a second hand replacement. Is it a straight swap or is an configuration required when changing the 6 disc unit, please?
Once I have a spare unit I will feel a bit braver about opening up the faulty one with a view to fixing it, I had a quick look under the top cover yesterday but it looks tricky to get anywhere near the laser.

Should be a straight swap, certainly that was the conclusion when I sold the head unit out of my D3.

Thanks DSL.
I'm getting well practised at removing and refitting the head unit now!
