Has anybody come across an XE cd player that makes a clicking sound when you put a cd in? It clicks like 5 or 6 times then displays Err on the display and ejects the cd. I'd like to avoid the hassle of a visit to the dealer if I can.


------------------

I only had that problem once, and that was because I was trying to play a CD-RW.

The first cd that was in there was a cd-r so I suspected that was the problem. I put in a regular cd and several others since then and it's doing the same thing. I'm wondering if there is some sort of reset and if it would help to reset it.

It's not a Yoko Ono CD by any chance is it ?

Nissan installs a filter...

Just disconnect the battery. That'll reset your radio. It can't hurt to try.

If it is the single cd player I'll check tonight. I remember when I took it out of the X there was a reset button on either the new head unit or the old one. I can't remember right now.

I have the old one sitting on my kitchen table so....

On my 2000 SE the front single cd player will play cd-r's but the 6 disc in the back won't for some reason.

Do you smellalallalalala what Xrock is cookin?

I looked. No reset button. Sorry

------------------

I've been hoping that happened to mine so I could take it back to the dealer and pay the difference to get the in dash 6 disk out of the SE.

Seriously, call your dealer and tell them what's going on. If they're cool about it they may be able to order you the head unit and let you swap it out yourself. It's a total of 6 screws. Two for the fascia and 4 for the radio.

I'm gonna try and disconnect the battery tomorrow. Hopefully that will do the trick, if not I'll take a shot with the dealer. Any idea on the price for the SE in dash player. I have an early 2-din radio so that would be so I guess the SE radio is my only option.

------------------

I think the deck is about 600, but if they let you just pay the difference...

If it costs that much it would be much better to buy an aftermarket radio and the pocket to fit under it. It will sound worlds better and be cheaper to boot.

I had a slightly different problem with my '01 XE Cd player couple times. All of a sudden it would crap out and repeat or skip a track, it goes on until you pull the CD out and the cd gets extremely hot. It is not related to a bad CD (I verified that the disk is ok), it happened to 3 different ones. I tried the CDs that had the problem at different times and they worked fine.

I suspected that its related to a heat issue, because it all happened when the engine was hot from a long drive. I talked to the dealer but they wanted to see it before they can help me.

Did anybody else had the same problem?

This happened to me about a month after purchase. The dealer had to replace the unit - no problems since. I know there were a flury of posts about this last year (on the old board). Call ahead because they usually have to order it - took several weeks.

Was it on this board or different one? Do you remeber if it was on Stereo, ... forum or General? Could you please tell me how long ago it was approximately?

Disconnecting and reconnecting the battery didn't work. I'm really considering going with the aftermarket radio and pocket. Anyone recommend a good in dash cd/am/fm.

I have a Sony MObile ES in my X right now. I had it for 6 months in an S10, a year and 3 months in a Blazer, and now for 8 months in my X. It's still going strong.

My mom also had a Sony deck in her Jeep for like 3-4 years and never had a problem.

------------------

I had the same problem about a month after i got my X. my sister was a little too aggressive when putting in a CD and i heard something click. The dealer checked it out, but ended up replacing it, the easiest solution for them. Luckily it was under warrantee!

After they initally looked at it, it worked again! They said a wire could have been loose...hmmm.

Well just about 3 weeks ago, the CD player (the one replaced by the dealer) stopped working again! With any CD i put in, I just get an error. I'm going in tomorrow to get it looked at. I'm a little disappointed in the player...it should be more durable!

Maybe I can moan and groan enough to get some free stuff from them......

**Update**
Just got back from the dealer. My visit took a grand total of about 3 min. inlcuding wait...They heard my diagnosis, took one look at the CD Player, and said they'd have one in by Wed. I wish they had an explanation or better solution for the problems, but oh well!

Decided to get it fixed at the dealer, so I now have to wait about two weeks for a new one. Still think I might replace it with an after market one.
