My CD changer has been what I like to call, jammed, for a while. Everytime I get into the car it acts as if it wants to put a disc in play and then it stops. I cannot take out the cd's or put anymore in.
This weekend, I took out the whole dash assembly and did a run through on the cd changer to see what the problem is. It sounds as if something is not catching that should. Based on these diagnostics, I am thinking I am going to either bring it to someone to get fixed, or get a new OEM from ebay for $150.
This would be a simple fix, however, while I have the whole dash off, I wanted to look into my other options.
I have an 04 SE without Navigation, but have been thinking about getting one of the new all in one, navi/dvd/ipod setup.
I'd like to have it setup so that I just have two screens, the regular screen with mileage and temperature, but also the new system, whatever it may be.
Can anyone give me any suggestions? My brother is into putting systems in, so the installation would most likely be done by us. Any suggestions as to what I should do would be helpful.

there are a couple options you will have. You could get a one din that has a motorized screen, or get a double din which is a stationary screen that moves slightly to allow dvd access. I do not recommend the one din because I have it and within a year it stopped going in and out like it was supposed to. You can find many different double din nav systems. I would do your research on which one has the options you want. I recommend getting one with touchscreen, high resolution, bluetooth, a good gps software, easily upgradable map options. If you have a nav system which keeps the nav software on an sd card, you can upgrade the software to pretty much whatever software you want. I use OCN8 which is awesome and customizable. Make sure it is what you want the first time and don't skimp because they are not cheap and buying a new one because you made the wrong choice the first time sux. Take it from me . Also might want to run your ideas by the guys in the Audio section of this forum. They live for questions like this. Ohh and make sure when installing that you ground the system to a grounding point, and not the black wire which says ground. I made this mistake and blew a fuse which took out all my brake lights and some dash lights because I trusted the wiring diagram from the stereo plug. Hope this helps.
hey guys i was going to try to fix my head unit/cd changer, seems like the driver side speakers dont work sometimes but the passenger ones do and this only happens when playing a cd, otherwise everything works fine, thanks!
I got the same problem on my 04 maxima bose 6cd system! Once a while the driver side doesn't work. And lately the cd player been acting up, it played for like 15 sec and then just freezed. Even when I changed to another cd it does the same thing. So much for Bose system...piece of ****! and I bought this car brand new too!
