Now my CD Player won't work!

I got the PAC AAI-NIS installed and it's working great but now my CD Player won't work. It tries to read the CD and then says to press eject. I press eject but nothing happens. I can't switch to any other CD or eject any of the CDs. Did my CD Player just die on me? It's worked perfectly since I bought the car and my car's only a few months old.

My CD player started doing the exact same thing as yours. It says press eject but nothing happens. I think the discs are jammed. It was working fine before this. I will have the dealer check it out when I take the car in for service in a couple of weeks..

Anyone else ever have this happen? I'm just wondering if it's something that I can fix myself instead of having to take it to the dealer.

Sorry to bring an old thread, but the same is happening to me now after installing the Pac AAI-NIS ! I have a scheduled appt tomorrow for my first free service so I'm gonna take advantage of that time and tell the dealer about the POS cd player!

Definitely good advice. Unfortunately I had never read that here before installing my PAC. I just dropped off my car to get a new HU installed. They have to send the HU back to Infiniti in order to get my CDs out. Thankfully most of what I had in there were burned copies and not originals. This is a common problem according to my service advisor.

Well, you can get the discs out fairly easily so long as you're not afraid of removing screws.

Would that fix the problem or I would just get the CDs back?

Having made that video myself, I can assure you it's not BS. That video is an '06 headunit, and I did it to an '05 before. It might not fix a cd changer that's bad (that's not the point of the video), it's to get your discs out without any further damage to the radio.

theres not much room to put the pac in that space recommended without crunching up the wires, put mine outside on the passenger between the carpet and stereo. no problems.

Just replace it. That's the preferred method of fixing any of the many, many things that go wrong with the stock radio.

same thing just happened to me... ugh...

edit: it's working now. not sure how/why. i did bang it several times with my fist, but I don't think that did it. my suspicion is that the outside temp cooled a bit and it restored fine.
