Wonder if anyone else has come across this and even better has a solution that does not involve a trip to the workshop.
The CD player with in dash 6 CD changer unit on my 56 reg Nissan Note will not load or eject CD's. When I start it the message comes up 'Checking Trays' which it just keeps scrolling. It will however play the CD's and change discs happily enough, it is just the load/eject function which appears at fault and the continuously scrolling message.
If there are no ideas for a DIY fix is there any way of extracting the CD's currently loaded? The manual is silent on 'emergency ejection' procedures!
Thanks in advance for any help or comment.

Problem sorted! This may be of interest to other Nissan owners with the same CD player setup as well.
In desperation yesterday evening I tried a bit of the old fashioned impact technology. As the CD player started up I gave the unit a couple of sharp thumps on the dashboard immediately above it. Turned unit off and back on again. Pressed eject and the CD's started coming out again and so far it seems to be working fine.
A trawl through some (mainly American) websites suggest that 'sticking' CD's may be a bit of a possible issue with these units. Some sites also suggested that the cause may be home burnt CD's in the unit slightly warping. I did have one in there and maybe that was the cause.
I have learnt a lot from this site and I hope that the above is of some use to other forum members.
Regards,
Steve
