anyone know what this error is? The cartridge won't come out of the holder thing although you can hear it whirring when you press the eject button.the cds won't play it just says cd err2

I had this problem.

You have either have to:-

1) unscrew the metal case and manually slide the CD tray back into the magazine

or

2) As above remove case. There is a small metal tab which slides the trays . This metal tab may need repositioning back to the cut out on the plastic tray where it locates to slide the tray

Sorry its a bit of a vague description. Any problems let me know

thanks dan, i'll have a go this afternoon!!

This as happened to me twice. On each occasion I've stuffed two cds into one slot or slightly at an angle and they get stuck I've had to take the changer indoors and take the whole damn thing apart to get the cd out. Its like pit-stop now, I'm down to around 9 minutes lol

9 minutes? not gonna win any grand prixs with a time like that!

9 minutes - damm thats good

Had the same problem with a Sony 6 CD changer (quite a small one) and it took me a good couple of hours to finally fix the damm thing (and I had to destroy the CD to actually get it out)

On the plus side, once I'd set up all the little belts in the correct place, its never done it since (crosses fingers )

I had the same with my Clarion one. Took me a couple of hours to get the thing apart and I destroyed a cd in the process. Never could fix the machine, had to get a new one.

My head unit is suffering now too. every now and then the power button falls ij and i have to go inside and re-super glue it. that takes about 20 minutes now and every time i end up with a more bits left over...

I have a clarion 6 disk changer for sale as the unit has been upgraded to a sony one.

was going to put it on ebay but open to offers

Trappy ,if your head unit is a clarion ,then spare
on/off power buttons are available(for a few quid)
,think their uk base is in Swindon .Kevin

The buttons are more than a few quid. More like £14

Blimey! couple of years since i bought and replaced
mine.(thats my excuse) Kevin

Hi

If anyone has the contact details for Clarion re: getting a replacement on/off switch for the Clarion ARX 7370R, it would be much appreciated.

My wife borrowed my car, stereo face was dropped between the seats, seats slid forward, crunch...

Or if anyone has a spare face unit they wish to sell, let me know.

At the moment, I am resorting to poking around with a small screwdriver to make the contact where the switch should be...

Many thanks for that, I'll drop him a mail.
