I have just acquired a 3.0 elite, and would like to know what i am doing wrong with the cd player, or is it the wiring, first of all i have both codes for the radio [which does say bose on the cassette flap ] and also i have the code for the cd player,which according to the posts that i have read is the correct model for the head unit, the problem lies in that when all the correct procedure is followed ,i have no problem with the radio ,but when i try to find safe and code the cd nothing happens, i have my finger on the correct button and switch the radio on , but nothing shows up on the screen, the guy before me took the radio out and he did cut some of the wires , but i have soldered them back to the original positions, to no avail, the cd player is powering up as when you disconnect the plug and then reconnect it you can hear it going through the cds that is in the mag, any help would be gratefully received . Many thanks JK

the picture you're posting needs to be hosted elsewhere. You surround the 'properties' of the picture with the image tags ie [ img ] http// blah blah [ /img ]

Hi, I had to charge the battery on  my Omega and after that the CD would not work no matter what I did. Just comes up with "CD ERROR". I plugged in my i pod and now just use that and the radio. Other than that suggestion, I can't help. Arc.

the car is an "R" reg, but there is no identifacation numbers on the front ,am goin to take a photo of it this morning , and see if i can post it , but still not 100% sure i can do it, but we will see--JK

Don't seem to be able to post pictures as i have no browse on my screen ,and when i click on image ,it just puts 2 img on my screen and when you click on them they just turn blue , so all i can help you with is the id of the cd player ,which has id numbers on it .They are as follows----- CDC2, and the number above that is   90 493 268 --, again there is no id numbers on the head unit ,it only says Phillips bose ,rws .Hope this helps---JK

Its a CCR800 then.

Do you have the CD security code (different to the radio code)?


If so, its entered:
Ign ON, Radio OFF
Press and hold 0 (next to cassette flap), and turn on radio, release 0 when it beeps
press 1,2,3,4 to get the correct code on display
Press and hold 0 until beep to activate.

10 attempts only!!

have both codes and they are different, done as you have said but i don't get anything on the screen , i do when i code the radio but when i follow the book and your instructions [which are the same ] nothing happens ,only the date disappears from the screen ,it makes no difference, how long you hold the 0 button ,nothing happens, but when i unplug and replug the cd wires you can hear it start to search for the cds, i know it sounds strange but that is what happens---JK

What happens when you just press the 0 button in normal use - do you get CDC SAFE on the display briefly?

[Dave DND]

Just throwing in a thought -

As the vehicle is new to you - Are there any serial numbers on the code cards that you have that match the changer? Have you seen the changer work at all since you have had the car?

I`m just wondering if someone has thrown in a non compatable changer to sell the car? Wouldn`t be unheard of. If you can get the numbers from the label on the changer, I`m sure someone here can advise if its the correct changer as there are several variants and we often get compatability questions here on the forum.
