Bose CD player doesnt want to FEED.

After i painted my dashboard, i took out the Bose head unit to inspect the display that went on and off.

I followed the directions on the FAQ sticky website and opened her up. I didnt solder/alter anything, i just took it apart to inspect it and to get to know what was inside.

After putting it together, i put everything back in my dash and started the car. Radio worked perfect, display still goes on and off, but now its 80% on, 15% off, and 5% dim/blinking. Great! right? No.

I tried listening to a CD, placed it in the slot less then half way, waited for the CD player to feed it inside, and nothing. I can hear faint noises of the motor's running, but it doesnt feed it inside. I then tried to give it a push inside, and still nothing. I was left with a Cd stuck in the player.

Today, i took it apart again, pulled out the cd. and made sure everything was connected right. I installed it again, and it still doesnt want to feed.

Any idea's what could of happened?

and how i can fix it?

But I never took my unit out it was working yesterday, then somehow it wudnt release the cd so after playing around with the eject button and getting the cd out, it wouldnt feed a another cd now. I am trying to figure it out myself I donno what happend. Someone told me give it a few days it will come around again lol, as silly as it sounds thats my best bet right now :-)

Yea to tell the truth I had intermittent working display and "cd err" on my bose. After I took it apart and changed resistors as in how to do section the display worked perfect but the cd player didn't worked at all. Then I ended up adding aux input to my bose to use it with my mp3 player. Now I really like using aux rather than cd player lol. I would recommend adding aux input unless u wanna change HU

Usually when I get "CD Err" it's the CD's problem not the HU's
