Pineappleman Posted March 27, 2006 Author Report Posted March 27, 2006 Hmmm cant even get the cartridge out it is well and truly stuck it makes a whirling sound but wont eject it not even by sticking a pin in that little hole. Quote
Joshua Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 Anyone managed to get any further on this? My wife's Focus is giving the same error and wondering what the best course of action is?Thanks,Josh Quote
Smilge Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 Im pretty sure someone mentioned on a previous post that disconnecting the main plug to changer for at least a couple of minutes and then reconnecting with the power off was the answer. I had similar problems with CD read errors ..... cleaned the laser and all's OK now. Quote
Joshua Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 Tried that didn't work. Anyone know where the eject hole is on these units? BTW - It's on my wife's focus, and if anyone has experience of removing a unit (without taking out the seat which I'm a bit reluctant to to) I'd be grateful. The 6 holding screws are proving reluctant to remove. Josh Quote

Smilge Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 Just been surfing and found this: http://experts.about.com/q/Car-Radio-Stere...Galaxy-6-cd.htm I dunno if this will help but you might like to try and E-mail the guy for extra details? Chris Quote
Joshua Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 Thanks - have email him. Keith (see above) has a spare one which I would like to buy, but really need to feel comfortable with removing the front seat first. I've re-wired my house, put in new kitchens and bathrooms, build pc's & networks, but me and car repairs have never got on well!Thanks,Josh Quote
mumof4 Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 cd error 5 is one that means that you have to return to dealership to fix.Ive never yet in all my surfing found a solution for it.I had a ford changer with the error and ford wanted a small fortune and 6 weeks to fix it..so i just flogged it as broken and for parts on ebay.it did sell amazeingly for 15 quid as the guy just wanted the cartridge!.
