Glove box cd changer problem

[madbonky]

Hope someone can help,

The cd changer is in the glovebox of my w203, if you try and eject the magazine it buzzes but does not pop out, do i need to remove the whole changer from glovebox and then take apart or is there another way to do this? If you press cd on the head unit it just says "no cd"

Any advice thanks!!!

Hmm, I had this with the same changer in another car. I took the unit apart and found one of the leaves of the magazine had got snagged and caught up. Nightmare and time consuming to get out and the magazine was damaged. Got a whole new 6-cd unit for about £20 in the end from eBay and just replaced the lot.
Work methodically when you take it apart. Don't force any gears, carefully wind them and the mechanism becomes apparent . .

Try disconnecting the power cable to the autochanger then reconnecting, a reboot sometimes is enough to make these things work again.
