"CONNECT" msg on OEM Clarion Audio System (CD)

Hi

Our 306 has a Clarion CDC634 changer in the boot. Following a minor tap in the rear, it began to display a "CONNECT" msg on the display and eventually gave up working. The cass & radio are fine as is the stalk controller.

We've just had the changer professionally repaired, and although it plays and changes CDs eventually, the same msg comes up a few times (and it reverts to radio) before suddenly working perfectly.

Before I go back to the repair shop, could anyone give me any pointers about what the problem could be?

Problem with the head unit maybe? The insurance company sent out a car audio 'specialist' to fit a new changer - a CDC628, but it gave a "CONNECT ER2" msg even with a new cable - so I doubt it's the lead - but what do I know?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Steve

The CONNECT message means that there is a problem with the connection between the head unit and the CD player. As for where that problem lies I can't say

Thanks for taking the time to get back me Phil. The repair shop now has the head unit and the changer. I'll let you know the outcome if you want for future reference of other AAP NG members. This is bound to happen to someone else eventually.
