My girlfriend has a 1999 chevy cavalier and just recently the cd player has not been working. When you put a cd in it just reads err and kicks it out. I have tried everything that has been posted. I have tried cleaning it with compressed air that didn't work. I tried a cd cleaning disc that didn't work at the time. I unconnected the battery and connected it back and for some strange reason the cd cleaning disc started and went through the cleaning cycle. Then I tried several regular cds and they wont work. Now all I can get to work is the cleaning cd. How wierd is that. Any other suggestions before replacing it.

Unit is inop; the laser is not reading the data. Would recommend replacement.

i had that same problem in My jeep chand cherokee whne i first got it and i pulled the thing apart and found the card from the guy who i bought it off of. i was pissed i called then up they were like ya ok i am sure that happen and they would do anything about it.

reset the cd player

my 99 cavy is starting to do the same thing, it is effing annoying too. i dont know a lick about car audio so i don't know what to do if i buy a new deck.

just buy a new aftermarket deck
