| I just installed some new speakers, as I cracked one last year.. Popped in a CD to see how they sound and my CD player only reads ERR.. Does anyone think that I can buy a CD player lense cleaner and get it to work again? Really don't want to spend another $150 - $200 on replacement parts, but I would have a hardtime living without a CD player... Let me know your thoughts.. I had someone tell me that I could remove the CD player and stick it in the oven at 100 degree and get all the moisture out?? What do you think??
If I end up buying a new CD player I would like to know your recommnedations...

| Is the CD that you placed into the CD player an actual store bought, record label produced CD? Or is it a CD that you or someone else burned/made with a compilation of songs? Did you try other CDs? |

| I'll try to reset it, did not think of that..
I tried several different CD's, all of which were store bought... |

| The oven wont hurt it if you do it right. I did it to a cell phone that went for a swim. Dried it out, and it worked perfectly for a couple more years.
Keep it around 100 degrees and you will be fine |
