I ran a small power cable under the middle section of the car (RHD) from one foot area to the other for footwell lighting. Somehow I'd say I knocked the CD Changer Connector lose. Although the fibreoptics both light up, the car keeps saying there are no CDs.

Now this could be coincidence and the CD Changer just could have broke at that moment - because if goes through each of the 6 slots looking for a CD and there are CDs there - but it says at the end that there aren't any.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Already have that - but still like CDs. Besides the front slot CD and DVD play MP3s.
