Shaker 500 CD, "initializing", but won't work.
Searched the forms, but couldn't find an answer. I disconnected my battery to work on '09 ragtop. Put in turn signal mirrors from CDC. Didn't do anything to the radio, other than disconnecting the battery. After reconnection the battery, I knew I would lose my presets. Satellite radio, and AM/FM all works great. If I push CD, 1st it will check for disks, (3 disks in it) and then it will say "intializing" for a few seconds, then go back to whatever station was previously on. Sometimes it will say "CD Error". Sometimes it will make a "clicking" noise, like it's searching for CD's. Randomly it will show "000000" even if the radio is off. I assume this is the readout that their are no disks in the system, even thought there are 3. Someone suggested I disconnect the battery again, and see what happens. Second verse, same as the first....Anyone got an idea, or suggestion as to where else I may look???
PS Mirrors work great, can't tell they on it unless they're flashing....

Those units screw up like that, mine didn't work right so I just replaced it with an after market one, that's honestly the cheaper route. You can take it back to a dealership and they charge like $100 to flash the programming (so I was told)
