Hi everyone. I started having problems this summer with my cd changer. It was raining up in the mountains and I turned on the defroster. After that, my cd changer would not "read" my disks. I had Subaru check it during my 30,000 mile tune-up and the cd changer worked fine. As long as the car is cold, or I am not using the defroster, it works great. Then the other day I had the defroster on and all but disks 2, 5, and 6 worked. Is there a short? My warranty is over so the dealer told me it would be $635 to replace it. Then the service guy gave me a name of someone that might be able to fix it and/or go to a car stereo shop for a new one. He said he wouldn't buy it from the dealer. At least he was nice about that. Any thoughts?
