  • Its got a cd player!!!!...............that skips :(

    I was driving home today and i was playing a cd and every time i hit the brake no matter how hard my cd would skip. i took out the cd and the thing was ****ing HOT my car was in the sun all day. I took it out and held it infront of the air and put in a diff cd and it was fine i locked up the breaks and skidded and the cd didnt skip. I put the other one in and it worked fine. any ideaS?

      Don't wreck your car over your CDs. Try to not let stuff like that distract you, or you might end up on a guard rail. [img]smile.gif[/img]
      My CDs come out very hot too.

          I've had 2 different cd players in my car and both of them, the cd comes out scolding hot. One time it was so hot I could hurt someone if I put the cd on them. I don't know if it's a normal thing or something is up with my wiring or what?

            It's fairly normal, the head unit's amp is putting out heat, and there's not really any airflow inside the dash to cool it off. Scary when you almost burn your hand on a cd, but working as designed.

            Might improve a bit if there's a rat's nest of wires behind the head unit and you tie them up nice to get a little more open air space back there.

            Maybe run a cd laser lens cleaning disk in there just as regular maintenance.

                Mine was doing the same thing, over every little bump and even on turns. I ran a CD cleaner in it, one off the shelf from Best Buy that you would use in a home CD player. Took 5 minutes and has been perfect ever since, not one skip.
