My disc player in the trunk don't work in my 95 when I press the button on the head unit. No fuses blown, no codes and the disc's go in and eject when I press the green button on the disc player. This tells me I'm getting power. Now I did disconnect the battery for a few weeks. Maybe this has something to do with . I looked for a disc player relay with no luck. Any thoughts might be helpful

 

Now its working !! Didn't do nothing to it.
I have to play a FM station for the first 10 mins or so then push the tape/disc button on the head set. Then it works perfectly. I think this thing has a mind of it own.

 

You're probably suffering from the same cold solder joints that many owners have with their OEM Alpine head units.

There is a specific surface mount component that affects the connectivity to the CD changer, but there are a lot of other functional issues that arise from the various other cold solder joints as well.

Mine used to start mostly working once it warmed up too, if I could get it to work at all, but it was so unpredictable that I had to get it fixed or replace it.

I had mine rebuilt by Southern Electronics and so far it is going fine now.


Here are a few threads that talk about the cold solder joints and related issues:

I sent mine to Southern twice a few years back, both head & disc player. Back then the noconn code was coming up. I even sent a copy of that articular someone wrote about the broken/unsolder joint with pic's on what the problem was. Anyway, its "working",today, can't say it will tomorrow. I rarely listen to the radio or disc player so I can live with it. Just nice to have everything working as designed.
