Stereo wont play CDs. Screen says FRMTREAD and then ERROR 02. Plays tuner just fine.

Nobody answered? I got the same problem

cd player goosed if it doesent accept cd can try resetting if it has a reset button

Put the player On for few hours or overnight. Now remove the panel and get access to the optical head unit, use a clean ear bud to polish the optical head. If not the optical head is weak and must be replaced.

cd decks that can play mp3 format cds should be able to play regular cds. there is not mp3 mode per se.

IF THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS TO ALL CDS PLAYED, COULD BE THE OPTICALS LENS IS DIRTY, TRY TO CLEAN IT, OR IF ORGINAL CD CAN BE PLAYED THEN THE OPTICAL LENS ARE NOT PROGRAMMED TO READ THE COPIED ONES

check your setup and make it in stereo mode.

how can it solved?? My old mp3's work perfect, now i made a new mp3 cd on the 700 MB space, but it doesnt work anymore.. i get ERROR 23 on my display.. what to do??

Consult your owner's manual for error codes. You have a disk/disk reader problem. A similar model Pioneer Manual indicates FRMTREAD as what is displayed while reading a disk. Error 15 equates to "The inserted disk does not contain any data". If this occurs with multiple disks, try the disks in a known good cd player. If they work there, it is likely a reader problem (alignment, bad reader, etc.) which would likely not be worth repairing or replacing in that unit.

E-03: CD does not have selected track number. ? E-04: Disc is dirty, upside down or unreadable. ^^^^ ? E-10: No data is recorded on the MD. The player plays the next disc automatically. ? E-99: Changer malfunction, disc may be caught in machine or changer requires service. I suggest the lens needs a clean, or someone has dropped it and broken the delicate lens mech. Luck

itll be the lens on the player clean it with surgical spirit
