Hi my step-mum has just bought a 2003 C3 and loves it.
Its fitted with the original in dash CD player but when she puts a CD in, it only goes in 3/4 of the way.
I've had CD's jam in players before and i know some makes have a reset button or a series of buttons to press to reset the unit.
Is there a way of resetting the CD mechanism on the C3?
Alternatively i have a Kenwood CD radio that she she can have.
Is a 2003 C3 multiplex?
Will i need a wiring adapter?
Will i encounter the aftermarket CD player issues that i have read about on this forum?
Any advice gratefully appreciated.
Jon

Welcome to the forum jonlucpicard,
The C3 'Navigation and Radio' manual makes no mention of a reset for the CD player and I am unaware of a secret service mode.
Unless
You use a wiring adaptor to sort out the power and backup wiring. (Switch pins 4 and 7 over in the ISO plug)
You can remove the C3 Clarion CD with these tools (amazon).

As for the aftermarket radio fitting, the answer is YES, you will find the unit doesn't switch off properly/memory loss/flat battery/eco mode/central locking not working.Will i encounter the aftermarket CD player issues that i have read about on this forum?
