Reply With QuoteBoy does that sound familiar. I just bought the second cv919 and after
about 2 weeks, today, it's got the same problem. This time, I was
smart, I copied the cd's and burned my own before inserting them. When
the original one was acting up, I figured, how difficult can it be.
Boy, was I in for a challenge. Immediately after opening it, I
discovered that there's no way a human being is going to be able to
get this back together. When you open it, and you will, there is a
circuit board and a paper thin connector with hardly any slack, once
you pull this off, you're done. If you're like me, once I got into
that situation, I just got the bolt cutters and cut away the outer
metal shell and cut away the brackets and was able to pull the CD's
out without damaging it. As for the CD player, unless someone else has
any ideas, it's pretty much toast.
I'm off to purchase a new third party cd player, enough of the
changer.
Best of luck

Err2 on CV919 CD Changer
Howdy.
I've got a CV919 six-disc CD changer in a 96 Maxima. I bought the changer
from a Nissan dealer a couple years ago. Theoretically it's the same
changer that would have come in the car when it was new if I'd ordered that
option.
A few days ago I punched a button to change discs, and heard a clicking
sound instead of the usual CD-swapping sound. After attempting to change
about five times, the display read "Err2." Now I can't change, play or
eject any of the CDs.
I found a couple websites for shops that will fix the changer... for more
than I paid for it when it was new. Don't think I want to go there. But
I've got $90 worth of CDs in the changer that I'd like to retrieve without
damaging them.
Anybody have any experience with this problem, and/or have any tips for
correcting the Err2? Or any tips for ejecting my six CDs, short of tearing
the changer apart?
Any help you can provide will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Not exactly what I wanted to hear, John, but thanks for your response.
I'll probably end up with a third-party CD player, too. The down side is, I
really liked the way the CV919 was MADE to work with the existing radio.
Punch the CD button, the radio goes off. Punch the radio button, the CD
player goes off. All the other controls run from the radio. I doubt I'll
find that with an aftermarket CD player.
I guess I'll end up replacing them both with a combo radio/CD player (think
I'll stay away from the changers this time, though). I hope I kept the
little plastic "pocket" that was in the CD changer's spot before I put
installed it.
Good idea re: burning "disposable" copies of your CDs. I'll bear that in
mind if I end up with another changer, after all.
Thanks,
SOD

Re: Err2 on CV919 CD Changer
My first suggestion is this:
Disconnect the battery for a while (only one terminal, not both), this
should force some kind of reset on the changer and allow you to eject
your cd changer cartridge. Be aware that this will reset all your
stations you've saved in memory. If this doesn't work. With the
ignition off, find the cable that goes to the changer, if it has a cable
that plugs into it somewhere on the changer, remove it for a few
seconds, then gently plug it back in (don't force it). You should hear
some whirring/clicking, then try to eject the cartridge (assuming it has
an eject button on the changer somewhere).
Second suggestion. If you plan to buy an new one, I'd recommend going
with Crutchfield (www.crutchfield.com), they make some factory
replacements that I've had very good luck with in both my current
vehicle Maxima (2K SE w/Bose system) and my previous vehicle, a '95
Honda Accord w/cassette that had a factory connection and controls for a
six disc CD changer which worked very well.
