Hi I am relatively new member needing advise on the above topic;my car is a primera se (NC53 REG)which I purchased second hand recently not realizing there was a cd stuck in the player I managed to remove the cd using a thin strip of metal and double-sided tape but when I inserted another cd it would not play and now it is stuck in the cd player,I am of the opinion if I did manage to extract the cd this would happen again so I was wondering if it is posiible to replace the cd player has anyone done this are there compatibilty issues any information /advise would be appreciated.Cheers

Hi, I am a new member to NPOC and have the same problem with the cd stuck and gear noise from the cd player in my ´03 P12. Prior to this problem the cds would eject but the player would not read them, on the display it would say "cd error". Any advice on this problem besides trying a cleaning disc? thanks cheers |

Hi and welcome to the forum
Sounds as if the laser needs realigning or replacing as well as the ejection, retaining fixed. You can either try to get a replacement unit then get it re-coded to your car or get the unit fixed. It is made by Clarion and they have a repair service

Thanks for the welcome and advise timeshock!
The radio/cd is now out and on its way to getting fixed I hope. I have now come across another problem after removing the radio/cd which seems a bit odd. The boot will not open!! With the boot release button on the driver´s door or the boot itself or the keyfob, the result is the same...AND the onboard computer tells me the boot is open when I drive. Very strange. I did have the fuse for the interior lights blow today, but I don´t know if that has anything to do with it. I will replace it tomorrow and find out. I will keep posting should my "experience" be usefull to other members.

It sounds like a fuse issue

Yes, it was the interior lights fuse. I have been told by a Nissan dealer here in Portugal that the radio should be repaired at a Clarion representative. I´m fearing that would be quite expensive.
I have read that it is possible to connect a CD changer to the factory radio, in my case the CY100. Does anyone have information about that possiblility? Even here on NPOC the information I have read is not clear. I would like to stay away from FM transmitters. Any help would be great. |

if you have a 1st edition P12 and judging by your reg I think you have then you should be able to fit a cd changer which goes in the boot on the right handside. You need to search for the wiring harness which should be fitted
I think Clarion charge around £180

CD player not fixed yet. Electrical engineer I took it too cannot find anything wrong at the moment, says he needs to have the radio plugged into the car to have a better look. So that is the next step. I have noticed that when I load a cd it appears to be unable to "spin up" fully. Could be the problem.
I have managed to fix the cd ejection problem myself I will look into finding the autochanger plug in the boot. I assume there is one there as all 3 connectors at the rear of the radio are there and wired. I will also look into if any clarion autochanger would plug in directly. |

I would recommend you locate the plug and loom location 1st. If fitted you will need (Clarion) CV707 6CD auto changer and magazine.
Pity you are not a member as I have a feeling one of our other members may be selling his shortly.
