Interesting CD player problem

Ok, here's my problem which I can't seem to figure out. I drove my car on Monday, no problems. Tuesday morning I left for TX on business, left my car parked where it was the night prior. I come back today & decided I wanted to drive the G, I turn the car on & noticed the radio didn't turn on & my passenger side LED dome light was blown.... weird. Everything seemed to work fine except for the radio & that blown LED which I replaced & works fine now... I checked the fuse for the radio, looked good. Went back to turn the car on, car turns on, radio turns on now but CD player doesn't work at all. The car pretty much acts like I don't have a CD player. I press the eject button & nothing comes up, I press the load button & it says "SELECT CD", I try using the key for the CDs and none of them work. WTF !!!! I tried everything & can't get the CD player to work, I was going to disconnect the battery but I don't have my tools, I will have to try this tomorrow I guess. Anybody know WTF is going on? Should I take it to the dealer? This is very frustrating as all I listen to is CDs. This is very weird, I know nobody drove the car because my wife stayed here & she didn't drive it & nobody else lives here..... THIS SUCKS !!!

Thanks for the help guys, hopefully I can get this fixed.

Disconnecting the battery didn't work, I might try & look into getting the PAC AAI-NIS2 though. Is there a fuse for the CD changer? I guess I'ma have to go to the dealer & get this fixed, I'm under warranty so it's coo I just hate driving out there. Thanks guys.
