Default cd stuck

Hi!

First, don't ever put a CD with a paper label in any player that "sucks"

in
the disc. I don't even recommend their use in tray-type players.

Secondly, there are a set of rubber grip rollers that move the CD in and

out
of most car players. These sometimes get a coating of dust or other junk

on
them. When that happens, the ejecting action becomes slow, erratic or

fails
to function at all. You can usually take the radio apart (be VERY careful
and use good tools) to get at the rollers and clean them.

Ok thanks William I'll try cleaning the rollers. I managed to get the cd
playing again. When the cd got stuck it also stopped playing as well. What I
did was unplug the car battery. Seems to be working again but at one point I
got an error message (E 99) which means in the manual: "Something is wrong
with the disk magazine. Or the unit is malfunctioning for some reason. Check
the disk magazine and then press reset button on the unit." Well anyway, the
E99 messsage eventually disappeared without me doing anything and the cd
player seems to be working properly now.
