Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Integral Multi Disc CD Changer (IMDX) (If equipped)
The integral multi disc CD changer has the capability of storing and playing up to six (6) compact discs. The integral multi disc CD changer has a shock-absorbing system. Only under extreme operating temperatures or severe shock or vibration should the compact disc player skip or mute. If the customer travels an abnormally rough road, a skip condition may be normal. Test drive the vehicle on a normal road with a known good CD. If the condition is still present, replace the radio. The use of CD lens cleaner discs is not advised, due to the risk of contaminating the lens of the CD optics with lubricants internal to the CD mechanism.
The CD mechanism within the ICDX radio will begin an initialization routine after a battery connect (e.g., connecting radio connector X1). The initialization process takes approximately 25 seconds to complete. It is very critical that the initialization is completed before removing battery power from the radio, in order for the complex moving parts of the CD mechanism to be positioned properly before shipping and/or handling purposes. Damage may result to the moving parts of the CD mechanism if battery power is removed during the initialization routine. The damage occurs to the CD mechanism during subsequent shipping or handling operations. The extent of the damage causes the CD mechanism not to recover and the mechanism becomes inoperative.
