CD Changer not working

Hi,
Is there anything such as fuses I can check on my 406 as my 6 CD changer has
stopped working.
I have a 406 HDI 90 1999 GLX. It's a factory fitted one and just stopped
working.

The button works when you eject the pack, but when you try and select a CD
from the controls nothing happens.


Thanks In advance

Hi there, I have had a similar prob on my CD Changer on 2000 406 Exec. What
happened was the CD changer was getting wet for a while (water getting in
somehow) it was making the CDs jump a bit and me being me thought it was
just condensation so just wiped CDs and kept playing them eventualy the CD
changer was no longer recognised on the Head unit and the Changer unit
didnt power up & reject. Like you I considered the in line fuse to have
gone but there aren't any. So I removed the changer and searched hard on
e-Bay for the same to replace it (my one has the blue square 12pin plug).
New one arrived plugged it in and yes it powered up and ejected cartridge
but no it wasn't recognised on Head Unit. So thinking maybe there was a
fault with the new one I stripped it & and the old one down and found the
componet that had blown on the original. It was the circuit board at the
blue plug that had got wet and blown. I therefore put the one from the new
changer onto my original and yes it powered up, ejected the catridge etc
but still was not recognised by the Head Unit. I am sure there is nothing
wrong with the changer now (and there was nothing wrong with the one I
bought) but the head unit doesnt recognise it. I am told that this is
possibly due to Peugeots security system where the audio equipment are not
actually pin numbered but you have to go to a Dealer to programme through
the ECU for them to work this should be about £25. Have'nt checked this
one out but maybe some of you know if this is the case or not.

Yes they have to be configured to the BSI to work. Also cure the water
entry which is usually through the N/S light unit seal to body.

 

Thanks for the info, I'll check the CD unit first, and check for damp.



Cheers
