Exiled

Yep, the "OPEN" button lights up when the unit is plugged in. I heard mechanical sounds when the button is pushed, but it was very faint, and there was no response. Now, I hear nothing. I have not seen such a switch, but the metal frame/harness that mounts the unit in the trunk is still attached, so there could be other controls currently hidden... Nope, the CDs were store-bought and as far as I know are of standard-label size. The manual is of no use for some reason; it does not offer troubleshooting on the topic. There is a manual trigger, just below the OPEN button. It doesn't help opening the cover - I had to do that myself. However, pushing the trigger with a metal pin does not seem to release the CD magazine, which refuses to move. Thanks for the help, I'll keep fiddling around with it. Any other suggestions before I shell out the hundreds of my worthless Canadian dollars for a new unit? <_< :o

I just got my insurance on a 1992 ES300 (yeppie!), but the CD Changer (6-disc, trunk-mounted) has not worked for some time. -Pressing the CD button on the controls doesn't provide a response -the Open button on the Changer doesn't work My dad removed the Changer a few months ago, and I just wiped off the dust and tried my hands on getting it working... no luck. The first concern is to get it working again. But if that's not possible, then opening the Changer would be nice, since apparently there are some CDs in there.... :o Little help? :)
