Replacing Cd Changer in 2000 JGC -- Easy ??

I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the Affinity sound system. Over a period of time, the changer is giving read errors on random cds. I have cleaned the laser head with the cd disk cleaner, and have run many tests, making sure that the cds are ok and can be played ok on other players. The read errors are random, but appear to be getting worse. I can only assume that I need a new changer.



This is the 10-cd changer that is mounted in the rear of the Jeep. If I buy a new changer, is it much of a job to install the replacement ? Have any of you actually done this job and if so, about how long did it take?



Thanks for any help !!

Why not simply try removing it? It should be possible to remove the connectors, take the changer to a store and find a replacement.

My first sugguestion is to get rid of this piece of junk before it takes all of your hard earned money, but, if you want to brave it, I have a bran new 10 disc changer in a box minus the magazine. My dealer had to order the hole thing just to get the magazine from the thieves at Mopar-who wouldn't sell just the magazine. It comes with the instructions, hardware and cable(which you don't need). It is very simple judging by the instructions. Email me at snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com.......remove the nospam to email me. Regards CJ
