Replies superpuff101 Posted at 3:44 am on Sep. 8, 2008 it sounds like some ofm your wires in your cd player have burnt out you can do either of two things you can and try and locate it and get it fixed or you can get a new cd player any more enquires message me Holden Commodore Posted at 9:37 pm on Sep. 6, 2008 So it's more than likely the player. What is your budget ?

I've had good luck with Sony decks lately. Holden Commodore Posted at 11:50 pm on Sep. 5, 2008 Personally speaking, my brother has had his ALPINE head unit since 2003 or so.. And has used it *every single day* For at least 45 minutes a day. It has never once let him down. I have also had good luck with Panasonic. Quantumleaper Posted at 8:17 pm on Sep. 5, 2008 Quote: from Holden Commodore at 12:59 pm on Sep. 5, 2008 If it's a five year old CD player, I'm surprised it's worked as long as it has. I've had one since 2005 (Panasonic CQ5301U) and it's coming time for replacement. Sometimes the aftermarket units aren't made as well as factory car cd players, and parts can give out. I think your best option would be to possibly buy a new one. yeah im going this route. im getting one with a SD card slot and all that shit. just need to gather some cash.
