driving the car today,no problems what so ever,park up,do what i have to do,unlock the car,put key in the ignition,turn on,radio comes on,i was listening to cd's before,so i thought something was funny,pressed cd button,get the message check discs,eject the magazine,all is well (as it was working perfectly before turning the engine off),put magazine back in,disc 1 starts to flash then reads check disc,this goes the same for all the discs up to and including no 6,then after this,stereo automatically goes back to the rdio,and if i press the cd button,all i get is the message "check discs".. 
anybody had this happen ?......PLEASE.........

My first action would be to clean the laser head...
When my autochanger broke completely I got the message "Disc error"....my problem was the motor would not spin the discs.
Hope that is of some use?

craig as stated i soldered the earth also check that the connections into the back are sound you could also confirm with someone elses unit by undoing the three screws and pliugging into theirs or visa versa this will eliminate if it works your disc changer if it doesnt its a ground fault
kind regards joe
