I have a 2003 Honda Civic with a stock cd player - when I first got the car I had no problems playing any cd's at all...Now I will literally put a cd in about 20 times and the cd player with eject it each time...Once in a blue moon it DOES play the burned cd's though, so I know it is not the cd that is the problem...I even had a problem playing a regular store-bought cd once...

Any ideas on why this is happening?? I need some answers before I break the whole dashboard! Is it possible that my laser beam just needs a cleaning???

Thanks for the help...

 

You might be buring the cd's at too high of a speed. Factory decks don't like cd burned at 24/48x. try buring on a lower speed and see if that works.

does it NOT play the SAME ones it USED to?

might be the lense

 

Try getting the lense cleaned.

 

Try using another color of CD's. Also, avoid using CDRW's because a lot of time the stereos hate them.

 

change the brand of cd's you buy. worked for many ppl i know. we all use the white label memorex's now.

 

it could be you were using a cheap cd-r's. info burnt on them tend to fade with time. i've been using imation for years now and i have no problem. so go and spend extra with the known brand names..
