Well, upon reconnecting the negative terminal, I discovered a newly ejected and completely destroyed cd. So I can testify that this fix works. Haven't tried another cd yet. Hope I didn't harm the player with my previous attempts to get it out. Thanks for the responses. Dave

The player seems dead(no inidicator light). Happened when starting ignition. CD had played fine before that. I've tried tweezers and can grab the edge of the disc but it won't come out. I'll try your suggestion plus try diconnecting/reconnecting the battery later today. If that doesn't do it I guess I'll have to remove the player. Dave

I did a search for this and haven't tried unplugging the battery yet. This is the stock single disc unit. The CD is store bought and was working fine. It's hard to tell if power is getting to the player. There is no light. Clock/Radio/Casette all work fine. But, if I do need to remove the player from the dash, could someone tell me the proper steps so as not to damage the plastic covers? Any other advice for this problem would also be great. Thanks. Dave
