CD player gives err. message
 

My
CD player constantly gives me an error message and wont play CDs. If I continually re insert the CD it will sometimes play, but not always. It does this with all CDs. I have used a CD laser cleaner with no change. Any Ideas?

Hit the top of the dash when you put in the CD works for me

does it do it when it is cold or warm or all the time? i had a an 01 Jeep with a cd player, it would flash the ERR on the radio when it was cold.

[laugh] OMIGOD X 2 I thought I was the only one. Way better than shelling out couple bones for a new unit when the old one works fine [laugh]

ALL THE TIME[eyecrazy], especially with CD's That I've burned myself.

Same here, all the time, burned and store bought cd's.

OH GEEZ. No wonder why there are SOOO many cracked and broken dash's.[laugh][laugh][laugh][laugh]

Time to get a new aftermarket.

I have a simple Sony CD/MP3/Bluetooth deck, I couldn't be any happier.

I load cell phone memory (2gb) with mp3s and play them through deck via Bluetooth (no wires, etc)

Forget the OEM deck..... [coffee]

I got a Kenwood unit from Best Buy for 70 bucks and an install kit from wal mart for 10 bucks. Pretty good deal I thought! :)

Mine gave me the ERR msg most of the time too. I took it out and blew it out with the airhose. Well, that did it. Don't work at all anymore. I'm going to take it out again and "fix" it with a hammer. [dummy][dummy]

I got the same issue on my 99 CD player, but I think the pennies my 2 year put in there doesn't help matters. [nonono]

Bringing up an old thread, but I hope someone has a solution by now. I was given a CD player/radio, but it gives an "Err" every time I put a disc in (and it just spits it back out).

Anybody know how to fix a CD with an "Err". Seems to be a common problem. :(

A long time ago there was a thread on here by a radio tech, He had pics of the insides and what was needed to align the head. Seemed simple but I don't have a CD in my truck so I didn't bother keeping a link to the thread.
