92 Corvette Bose CD Player Dilemma

it will eventually stop working at all, and refuse to eject your cd. it needs refurbishing, which will only typically last for another few years.

i tossed mine and replaced everything 4 years ago and got better sound too.

Bose Gold??

Ric,

My CD player wouldn't work either, and to tell you the truth the automatic adjustment of the volume for the car's speed was driving me nuts too. I went with a JVC double-din and Infinity speakers on the replacement. BUT, could you possibly provide more info on that repair place? I might spring to repair the Bose, just for grins. Company name or phone - anything. Thanks.

a definition of insanity is repeating the same action expecting different outcomes...

after twice repairing mine, i put it in a box and shelved it for the next buyer. there's a place in phoenix that repairs these called jimmy's. i don't recommend them.

I like the Auto Volume :-) You have 2 settings & turn it off also.

I've got a '04 ZO6. Very disappointed in the Bose system. Shit canned the whole thing. New Pioneer head (model 7600, fits the entire hole like it's made for it), 4 channel 400 watt amp under the passenger seat, new speakers in the doors and added a sub-woofer in the left rear cubby hole. Sounds awsome. Will keep the Bose system in a box for if I want to sell it. Bose is way over rated. You ought to see the speakers I removed, total crap.

That's interesting. I have a C3 and while I had to cut a fraction off the console face, I figure they're inexpensive anyway, I also put in a Pioneer head unit, took the speakers out of the dash, put new ones in the kick panels, new ones in the rear corners and dropped a subwoofer in the right hand cubby hole, and a 400watt California 5 channel amp in the middle cubby hole. (No room under the seats.) It's like sitting inside a headphone. Sound is crisp and light, and even if you try to blow the doors off, you can still have a conversation. Pioneer has a good head unit.

I had the same problems with the control head and CD player on my '94. Sent it off to them last year and all's well. Cost was $190 and shipping. That link takes you right to where you want to be. They provide EXCELLENT directions for the R&R of the unit.

Page Bookmarked :-) That was it, thanks! Cheaper than I remembered.

Unquestionably Confused,

Thank you very much for posting the link! That is the exact problem that I am experiencing (CD plays based on weather conditions).

Now I'll attempt to pull the unit out based on the instructions provided.

Thanks again!!
