Mazda 3 2009 Dynamic 1.6

I would really appreciate any help from forum members that could have the answer to how I can overcome CD Changer that does not load CD's...... The indication to wait and numbers 123456 does not reflect on the display screen, all it says No Disc, but won't load CD's.? Any Mazda owners out there who have had the same problem and found a solution? I think it could be a software issue and not a hardware issue? Any ideas, thanks.

Spotify or Apple music or Google play music etc +

only one CD? or any CD, might be that particular one wont load properly.

otherwise, maybe the formatting? standard music CD's vs something with Mp3 files on it.

or you could join the 21 century and get one of those things @WAslayer mentions?

Thanks for your replies WAslayer and eg2505, I want to keep things original as it is a factory fitted double din radio/CD changer.... I could as also purchase an after market unit, but don't want to, keeping things original. All CD's won't load, I am sure it has to be a diagnostic problem?

The lasers on optical drives have a limited lifespan. Car is 11 years old. Would not be unheard of to assume the freaking lasers packed up.

Okay but, you are not having to change anything at all by getting a Bluetooth FM transmitter.. you plug it into the cigarette lighter socket, connect your phone via Bluetooth and tune the original factory fitted radio to the frequency it broadcasts over and you get to play whatever music from your phone..

It also doubles as a handsfree phone (at least my wife's one does).

Guess I'll try them Bluetooth gadgets, after all, I don't really have a huge selection of CD's, all my music is on a USB flash drive anyways {MP 3's}

@Marius Flash checkout spotify when you have the chance. Judging by your current predicaments, it might be something you need.

Can you imagine a music subscription service where for a low monthly fee (R60), you can listen to pretty much anything as much you want? Mind-blowing right?

Let him try the Spotify free tier first & see. Always free first & take it from there.
