2006 HONDA ACCORD EX CD CHANGER. I ACCIDENTALLY PUT A CD IN THE PLAYER WITH A STICKER LABEL ON IT. SAYS MECH ERROR. BUT IT WILL LOAD AND EJECT CDS. I HAVE THE CODES. EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS FINE.

Either the unit's motor is bad or the mechanical parts are dirty not allowing the unit to change CD's or load them.

This happened to my 2006 Honda Pilot with 60K miles. I had 6 CDs in and it stopped working. No error, but it would not recognize when I pressed the CD, Load or Eject buttons. Everything else worked. I called Honda and they would not offer any warrantee help. I did not try to unplug the battery or any other button combos to do a "reboot". I found a refurbished replacement deck on ebay for $150. (There are super tiny numbers on the right side face of the deck, be sure to get the right one, there are minor differences.) I found an install guide http://documents.victorytechnologies.com//documents/product/939.pdf and took the old one out and put the new one in. This one seems to work fine.

There was no easy way to get the CDs out even when it was out of the dash. Had to remove the heat sync and then lots of screws. I was finally able to get to the CDs out. One of the CDs had a label that was a little warped and creased. Not sure if that caused the problem, but the owners manual does caution against CDs with labels. No more labels for me.

I have a 2002 honda accord with the 6 disc cd changer. I beleve the cd changer has jamed and have lost power to the CD player. When I press the CD button it wont recognise the player. Any suggestions

I talked to a dealer, all they could tell me is they have to send it to honda to fix it... a good 250$ for software fix...plus dealer will charge 50$ for each time they take the player out and in...

circuit board in cd player may be at fault

i advise takeing it to ur local honda dealer... if u are useing copied cds make sure u dont tell them that, they most likely will order u a new unit if under warranty still or under a honda care contract

I'm having the same problem and want to know how to fix it without having to take it to the dealer. my cd's won't come out or let me put any in and it keeps saying CD CHANGER ERROR

just replaced my 2006 Pontiac G6 GT Monsoon 6 CD changer with an identical model pulled from a totaled car.How do I reprogram it so it works on my car.
