CCR 2006? Does it play the CD's that are in there? or does it say CDC Safe?

Usually they still eject with the CDC Safe message. As Tunnie says, will it play what's in it?

The main reasons for them to get stuck are either a distorted transport mechanism or on the magazine the flexi-catch assembly bends then won't allow the magazine to contract.

I don't believe that there is a CD magazine in it ATM as when I push the CD  button on the dash it comes up saying "magazine" which I believe means no magazine in.

Is there a manual way to open/close it?  and also where can I source a magazine from? 8-)

Sounds like the plastic catch for the eject has detached itself from the bezel. Hopefully it's floating about inside the unit but it'll still need the head unit extracting and the bezel removing to re-attach.

That just means it can't sense the magazine - had it on mine once - ejected magazine and re-inserted and all then ok.

If you slide the "door" on the top open you should see the magazine!!
