03 Expedition issue

the car runs great but recently i encountered a very annoying issue
while i was listening to my CDs, as it began to switch to the next CD in the changer, I heard like a flicking sound. Then it told me there was a CD error and began to eject the CD. But half-way through the process of ejection, I hit CD, and it took the CD back in. Now it won't play the CDs, saying there's a CD error, and when it goes to eject the CDs it says there's an ejection error. So I can't even get the CDs out.

Briefly: the CD player says CD error and tries to eject, but then says ejection error.
Also, when I press CD, it doesn't sound like it's actually trying to play the CD, for it merely opens and closes the CD slot thrice and then displays the error message.
HELP:banghead:

I have the same problem in my 03 Navugator. Did you ever figure anything out other than replacing it

haha actually, the next day i started the car up and all was well :)
per usual these problems seem to self-correct :)
hope yours does too

It's been a few months and nothing yet.

I had the same issue with my Mustang (with a 6 disk changer). What I did was disconnect the negative battery cable for about a minute. Re connect it and the stereo would initialize and eject the cd's. Worked every time. It's kinda like a reset function. Weird!!! I got tired of doing that after while so I purchased a Pioneer head unit. Problem solved for good!
