Visit your dealership. This is an ongoing problem. Mine happened a month ago. I have an 03 build. Unit replaced under warranty, new unit installed in an hour...CD's returned in one week.

Re: !! AHH HELP - ''CD ERR FO''

I've had three separate CD players already and two have went "kaput" on me, saying those dreaded words:

CD ERR FO -----> Damn you!

Drew's G did the same thing. He said he selected CD 4 then changed his mind so he tried CD 6. The bose--er clarion--doesn't like this combo for some reason.

Bose is an overpriced piece of ****. Try to disconnect the battery and reconnect sometimes it can if it sometimes it can't.

I was able to get it out of ERR F0 by turning the car on and off a few times. It would happen over and over again though, dealership replaced it and I haven't had trouble with the replacement for 10 months or so now.

Re: !! AHH HELP - ''CD ERR FO''

Your "Audio Unit" (AM/FM/CD Changer Combo Unit) carries the SAME warranty as your vehicle's basic warranty period.

4 years OR 60,000 mile (whichever comes first)

You will need to contact (not necessarily visit) your local Infiniti dealership who can take all of the pertinent information over the telephone and order a REMANUFACTURED "Audio Unit" for your vehicle. It will take your dealership anywhere between 2 days to 2 weeks (depending on availibility from Clarion) to receive it via U.P.S. The dealership then should contact you to schedule an appointment to replace your "Audio Unit." The malfunctioning "Audio Unit" from your vehicle will then be shipped back to the manufacturer (Clarion) to be repaired (and remove the "stuck discs") and recycled to the next needy client/dealership. Expect AT LEAST 2 -3 WEEKS to receive your CD's back from the manufacturer (Clarion) to either your dealership or directly to yourself.

IF your vehicle is no longer in warranty (either by time or mileage) then the process is very different.

You will have to either remove the "audio unit" from the vehicle yourself or have your local Infiniti dealership remove it for you. The dealership will then either send it back to the manufacturer (Clarion) for repair OR they will send it to one of several Independant electronic repair shops to fix it for you. Expect to drive around with a HOLE in your dash for approximately 1 week until they receive your newly repaired "audio unit" back to install in your vehicle.

You can expect to pay anywhere between $175 (+ labor) to $250 (+labor) MINIMUM to have your "audio unit" repaired out of warranty!!

I hope this answers ALL of your questions!!

By the way, your radio (even though it says BOSE on the face-plate) is NOT made by Bose. Your radio is made my CLARION. Bose does NOT make radios, they make SPEAKERS and also assist various manufacturers with the design of the overall audio system. This is the case with ALL of the current Infiniti models!!
