I know this sounds stupid, but what brand of cd's are you using?

HZ-308 · 11-02-2006, 08:09 PM

im using tdk cd-r. but it also does it with original cd's.....

sam · 11-02-2006, 08:11 PM

Oh, hmm. I'm not entirely sure but I think it might be either:
a. A cheap lens in the unit
or
b. You might need to go through the menu and find something to do with cd's.

I hope someone who's had experience with one of this head units and fixed it comes in here, I'm just saying what I can think of that would be the problem.

HZ-308 · 11-02-2006, 08:17 PM

Yeah no worries dazza thanx anyway. ive done everything i know including the menu.Even my other cd player was doing the same now and then.This has got me stuffed ! cheers

hey hz,i'm selling a kenwood CD/MP3 when it comes out of my car,if you want,i can sell that to you for a price,and if it does the same error on this,its got something to do with your wiring.

it could be anything cheif. best to ring the manufactor to find out.

it could be something like, unknown file type
music sample rate too high or low
bad id3 tags.
it could also be the way your burning your music on the disc.

what i'm trying to get at, theres endless posibilities.

HZ-308 · 01-03-2006, 07:55 PM

Thanx mark.Its a really weird one as it does it with original cd's aswell... i'll just get the warranty that i got and see what happens with that,as it wont cost nuthing

But thanx for all your input !! cheers

vkdesire · 05-03-2006, 12:13 AM

the same thing was hapinen to me, i found it was a dodgy power wire so i replaced the power wires and fixed up the earth and it was alright after that... if you put the cd player in yourself the warranty means jack now coz in my experiance it has to be installed by a profesional so yea.. hope this has been any help, cheers

HOTN355 · 05-03-2006, 03:51 AM

Read your warranty first if it says anything to do with professional installment first.if you done it yourself,but if it is a CD player fault,it should still come in warranty because it is a production error.

Thanx guys, oh well we'll see what happens as i did it myself,as its not that big of a job...im guessing the cd mechanism is RS.I'll keep you posted on the results.

Thanx to all !!!

Howdy,

Have you tried hitting the reset button on your head unit?
(Normally located on the front of the unit)
I know it sounds silly but I've come across that error before and a reset usually sorts it out.

HZ-308 · 22-03-2006, 05:04 PM

Just like to update that i sent the head unit back and got sent back another unit that works

so thanx to everyone who had input in this matter. cheers
