wow, this seems to be interested, I would like to know a bit more about this integrated system, and this is just what I want: An Auxiliary input device to be programmed by the same old button on my steering wheel.

As indicated by POWER's1, when I looked closer while the cd's were in the process
of being loaded, I have discovered that the changer was attempted to load the CD's
but none of them were able to load successfully on the player platform. Meaning that's why the
system detects NO cd on the player's platform, which lead me to message: No cd on the radio.

Making matter even worst now, I was trying to disassemble the unit to see what I could do, but unfortunately the flat sensitive connector that has many connections lines
going through the back has been accidently cut-off and separated from each-either.
Meaning it's all messed up now leaving me with just a single disc on my dash radio.

Because it's such difficult to attempt reconnect back these little tiny lines, using a solder iron. The option now is to buy another cd changer, or update
to this system below integrated with an ipod.

Sorry to hear about your mishap,but that ribbon is a bit fiddly and almost caught me out too.My problem was the motors too and even after cleaning/lubricating them ,after a while ,I continued to get the "NO DISCS" message,which after investigating ,I could see a cd had got stuck and this was always the problem,so I removed cd changer and cut an opening right above where the cds are loaded!Now every time they get stuck,I can reach them from the top ,push cd loader back and all good again.This happens every couple of months,so not too bad but when it dies completely ,I will properly get a Grom system myself.
