Yup, mine is out now (for the last 2 months) I had 5 in there (none in #6) Somehow (banging the hell out of it) I got one more to pop out since it went out. But now I think I'm SOL it is making very horrible grinding noises every time it starts up.

Mine is out also for about a month now...
replacing it with a pocket.

Is there any way to get the cd's out? with out going to the dealer
or am I SOL?

Sure, rip it open. It don't work anyway! I'm thinking of selling my system. Just not 100% sure yet. It's not a stock system. I have a RIO MP3 player in the top slot, head unit (cd am/fm) receiver in the bottom slot. Still on the fence.

I have always had 6 cd's in the changer, the majority of which are burned cd's (with and without homemade labels) and have had no problem. I have used the player almost exclusively every time I drive since buying the VX in 2000.

But just the other day I noticed when it was playing that the music skipped for a fraction of a second and then again today same thing.

I think you are right because i did the same thing with mine. i never put any in slot 6 and it worked fine,,, go figure?

What are they worth, I have one that is brand new, never used, as I replaced the entire system 2 days after I bought the VX.


I have the radio, and the cd changer.

I had a burnt CD work for about a month and then over a period of about a week it went from one or two skips during the entire disc to completely unplayable. The other CDs burnt from the same batch of blanks continue to play fine...

Tone's very strange instructions for fixing error #3 with the CD changer really works!!
Thanks Tone!!

yes, for some reason the 6th CD will get abrasion after a while and then u won't be able to play that CD in that slot. U can put another new CD, but the same thing will happen after a while, if u take the CD out and look at the CD surface, u will see a certain area with some abrasion.

So far my cd player is ok after 2 years, i only put 5 there ever since i found this problem. It'll be nice if there's one replacement unit which we can put it in without any change of the VX dashboard.
