Hope someone can give me an idea.

I read most of threads about skipping CDs a while ago, and now I can't find a particular one.

Here is the problem, the HU has some big issues with CDs (original and burnt), most of the time it will play about 3 or 4 songs and then start skipping like crazy and usually spits the CD out. I've tried different CDs (old and brand new) no difference.

It usually plays the 4 tunes first thing in the morning, but after shuting off the car and going later that day NO LUCK, it pretty much spits it out every time.

If I remeber correctly, someone mentioned something about disconnecting the car battery for a while (positive or negative?) and thus letting the computer and all electronics reset themselves.

Will this work? Did anyone try it? The scrapyard here wants $250 for the mazda HU (... and I really like the oem look, but this seems too steep

Sorry for this long post, but I'd like to be able to playb CDs in my car

go aftermarket. For $250 you can get a sweet headunit off of eBay. And $250 isn't steep at all for a factory cd player, but why go factory when you can get a nice pioneer one with MP3 capability for example for around that on eBay. And the look of the factory one isn't even all that nice. Just my opinion though.

just start a post on here that you want to buy a factory headunit. I'm sure you have atleast 20 people with theres just sitting in a box in there closet
