Hey,

 

I just got a D3 and installed it. It was working fine i was able to play cds and dvds. Then about 2 days later i get a Read Error on any cd i put in. I used to be able to hear the disc spin i guess in the unit and now when i put the disc in i cannot hear anything.

 

If anyone can offer any help i would appreciate it.

What kind of car did you install the D3 into?

 

If it is near any electronics that may be throwing a magnetic field, they could reap some havic with the DVD drive.

 

I have had similar problems and just persevere (re-inserting the disc) until it works. It seems to happen once or twice a month on mine.

If this does not work... search in the forum for a manual reset option.

 

When the unit is powered on, hold in the CD/DVD eject button for about 30 seconds. This may do the trick of resetting the drive.

 

I would suggest powering down the unit and then back up again after you do this with no disc in the radio.
