radio errors

Postby talat » Thu Jan 15, 2009 2:39 am

hi

I recently bought a 98 altezza... its only been 4 months..
Now when i turn my radio on to the cd function all it does is makes a weird buzzing noise and the screen says error 3...
When i press eject the cds dont come out..
can anyone tell me what error 3 means and how i can fix it.

Error 3 means the bottom of the changer spindle has come out of position and discs no longer play or eject. Throw it away and upgrade is the easiest and best fix.

Mine got Error3 when I was driving it back from England and I just turned it on and off a few times and it worked again. Ever since then I've only put one cd in it and it hasn't happened again.

kel your dash could be slightly different because its a 98. i bought a fascia for mine when i had my 98 altezza and it wouldnt fit, the trc button and theplastic around the dash are all one piece. the dash changed in the 99 or the 00 models
