Default How do you get burned cd's out of the cd player?

I was playing a burned cd yesterday in the factory cd player, and now it won't eject out. I can hear it tring to come out, but it never actually ejects. Does anybody know how to get the cd out without tearingapart the radio?

Remove the deck and unscrew the screws.

I have had the same problem on occasion...best advice is to do this....hit play, hit stop/eject...just keep doing it, eventually the CD will kick itself out..and don't use writable CDs anymore...invest in a cassette adapter and use your IPod.

+1, I get the same problem only it happens with original cd's and burned ones. I've had to do the play/eject move for up to 5 minutes before until something happens.

burnt cd's have a slightly different thickness to them. thats why they get stuck. the stop/eject thing works after a while, i also had success with using a jewlers flat-head screwdriver to lift the cd to get it to eject.

Don't buy into the burned cd's theory. Mine always jammed up and I don't even own any burned cd's. The stock cd changer is just a piece of crap.

I usually get it out by taking another CD and trying to put it in. It won't go in, obviously, but it usually un-jams the stuck one.

+1!

My cd's have been sticking since last week...and none of them are burned! I hit eject a bunch of times and turn the car off for at least 30 minutes, then when I start it up again, hit the eject button and it'll pop out.
