Question
Hi Ernesto,
I have a 1999 Honda Accord LX and the factory radio/stereo system has a CD button on it...So in 2000 I had a 10-disc CD changer installed in the trunk and it was all working fine..When you push the CD button on the stereo it switches, push the AM/FM button, switches to radio, etc...
Now recently my car battery died and I replaced it with a brand new battery..However ever since, the radio and cassette work fine but the CD button does not work at all...I cannot switch it to the CD changer by pressing the CD button on the stereo..It seems like the CD button has no effect..Either the button is not working or it's not detecting the CD changer? Any thoughts..Thanks
unplug the cd changer and eject the cd magazine
after that unplug the battery for 5 minutes
plug the battery again tuinr on the ignition and the radio for a couple of minutes
turn the radio and ignition off and unplug the battery again
plug the cd changer wait 5 minutes plug in the battery and go in the trunk ,put the cd magazine with 10 disc
wait 3 minutes and turn on the ignition and radio press the cd button
radio have to find the cd changer again
good luck
you can only remove the negative
