How Is Car CD Troubleshooting Done
Everyone enjoys listening to music while on drive. When CD player stops doing its job we take it to a repair shop. But before doing that we can try out few simple ways of car CD troubleshooting which may save us from paying huge amount for repair.
The first thing that should be done in trouble shooting is to find out the specific problem. One of the easy things that could help finding the defect is by checking whether the radio works properly or you can check the output volume of all speakers and check whether they are all equal. Once the specific defect is identified, the solution can be easily reached.
First our aim is to find out which area of the audio system causes the problem. It can be speaker, radio or the CD playback. This step is done so as to save time and this will help in finding quick solutions to fix the problem. It includes checking fade controls. This is done mainly when one speaker works but the other one does not.
The reason for not receiving the sound in the speaker may be due to break in flow of current through it. Buy a radio shack from any electronics shop and use it to check the current flow through the wires for speakers. The speaker's grill covers are unscrewed and snapped off. And then the mounted speakers are also removed.
Another possibility might be due to the damaged connections. To check this, the wires can be connected to electric meter which is available in shops. This electric meter gives a reading if there is power supply. Therefore if the wires are not connected properly or have disconnected somewhere it will show no reading. The wires can be obtained but removing the player after unscrewing the speakers.
The last thing that needs to be checked is the harness of the wiring under the dash board . Use flash light to do this. If everything is fine, the positive cable is disconnected from the battery of the car and leave it like that for a minimum of ten minutes. This time gap is given for the player to come back to the conditions in which it was preset in the factory.
There also appears a problem of disc error. In this case clean the disc drive using a lens cleaning solution. A drop of rubbing alcohol can be used for effecting the cleaning power.
Above steps can be followed to find the trouble in the CD player. But to prevent further problem it is essential to clean the CD before use with the help of soft cloth and a solvent. These are few steps of car CD troubleshooting. - 21392
