I have a shaker 1000 and "CD Error" comes up on the little monitor. It also makes funny noises like it's cycling through the CDs. Will it keep on doing that over night?? It started doing it when I put the battery power back on after my Vortech install and the CD player never worked right since.. it just says "initializing".

how do I (If I can) re-start/re-set it??

 

... luckily it stops cycling completely after the doors lock.

I'll eventually just get a new deck, don't want to take any chances of it flipping out and draining my battery.

 

I have the same thing going on with my shaker 500, did you ever figure anything out?

 

I bought an 07 mustang gt last week and it did it for like two days and just randomly stopped. It hasn't done it yet. I didnt nothing different either. I just got in my car started it up and it worked again.

 

I seem to remember others with this issue. I believe the fix is to disconnect the negative battery terminal for about 20 minutes or so.

Give it a try. Costs nothing.

 

I have the same thing on my 06GT...finally it spit out a piece of plastic...like something used to wrap a part...so I changed out the head to a Pioneer and that really woke up the system!! so much better then the stock head

 

nah, I have bigger fish to fry.. gonna swap it out for a Sony this winter..

 

Typical.
Your next post will be 'my battery died"' unless you get it removed or fixed.
Is it loaded with store bought CDs or CD-Rs?

 

Battery has not died yet, It has both store bought cds and cdrs.

 

The Shaker 500 is very noisy. It sounds like it's always straining and having a hard time making up it's mind on what to do. Mine's kinda always been like that. I get the CD Error message once in awhile or the Bad Disc error, but then I just pop the disc back in and it works fine. Not quite sure why it's like that. I still think it's more noisy and mechanical sounding than it needs to be.
