Cd stuck in car stereo?

Question

a friend of mine has a nissan, with a factory cd stereo in it, and he has a cd stuck in the player, it just makes clicking noises and wont eject, he has tried lots of ways to get it out, does antone here has any ideas how to get it out without damaging the the stereo?

Answer 1

I have used a popsicle stick (or anything thin and non-metalic) as a tool to adhere fairly sticky tape to the label side of the disc.  When you press eject tug on the tape a little and the disc should come out.  It sounds like he has some dust on the rubber rollers that feed and eject the disc.  FYI - Burned discs with stick-on labels tend to slip on those rollers and jam because the texture of the label doesn't give the rubber roller enough friction.
