w208 no cd player found??

[droptop430]

My CLK 430 suddenly does not "see" the factory trunk cd player. ANyone know how to make the radio "see" it again?

Check the optical cable in the trunk (specifically the connection). It has a habit of coming loose and/ or getting damaged.

yeah i had that problem with it saying no magazine and all i had to do was pull the mag out and put it back in but that wire thing might be the real problem

Mine used to do that I replaced the player itself to resolve the problem. However, no matter what it won't play burned CDs properly and at this point I don't even remember if I ever burned them as AUDIO or MP3, probably the latter.

I've had this happen from time to time. It usually recognizes the changer again after turning the car completely off and on again. I think it has something to do with the cable being loose because I noticed it usually happens after driving on rough roads.
