When I got my 2000 Tibby, the radio was replaced within weeks because the cd player wouldn't play cd's. Now, 5 1/2 years later, it's doing it again. It spits them out with an 'err 6' or 'err 3' message on the display. The radio & cassette still work fine.

Anyone have this problem? Can it be fixed or is time to get a new radio?

 

Yes, it's time my young padawan

the optical pickup of cd players are quite sensitive, then you add rough road driving to it, etc

 

have you tried cleaning optics?

 

I have a factory cass + cd double din out of an 01 tib if you want it make me an offer.

when I bought my car, there was a CD in CD player (2 DIN stock). It was playing normal, but any CD I put there didn't play. So I decided to clean it. I dissasemble CD player and with alcohol and cotton sticks (sticks that you clean your ears with) I cleaned a lense. After that all worked fine and still working (for 2 years now).

 

I can change my HU out in like 4 minutes. Just get the right connectors and you are good.
