CD stuck in player!

[squeek17]

Well i tried to update the software in my radio on my 06 SG, did all the steps, it never updated and the cd will not eject. I tried taking the fuses out as instructed with no luck. Any ideas??

I think I read somewhere that if a CD sticks while upgrading software it will eject after a few minutes of riding. Don't remember where I read it, never had to do it but I hope it works!.

True it will eject when you are riding but the radio firmware has to be working for that to work. Does the service manual say anything about removing a CD? I thought the CD had a manual eject on the front or the back somewhere. Not 100% sure and no where near my service manual.

I can't offer any suggestions on getting the CD out in this particular situation. But on my car which had a 6-slot disc feature built into the CD player, I burnt a disc using a CD-RW disk, and that one got stuck and wouldn't come out. Had to get the entire CD unit replaced.

Never had a problem with any of the CD-R discs I have used over and over...but no more will I put in a CD-RW disc into my car...and won't be doing that on the scoot either - more for a precautionary measure than anything.

Owners manual warns "Not to use double sided CD's" as they may become permanently lodged.
Hope that isn't your problem.

Some computers used to have a small hole in front that would let you eject with a straightened paper clip.
Maybe......
