The CD won't eject from the radio. It shows "disc error". Is there a way to get it to eject?You guys are the experts and I always trust your expert advice. Your site is the best. Take care, BOB.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

Bob, the only thing I know to remove one is to remove power to the CD player by pulling the fuse. When reinstalled, most times it will eject. I did find the following and it is basically what I have seen done.

STUCK CD'S
Interrupting the battery power by pulling the fuse will sometimes release a stuck CD. If a CD is stuck, and removed, inspect it for warps, cracks, etc.

See pictures for fuse location.

Let me know if that gets it out.

Take care,
Joe
