In case anyone runs into this, mine would get discs stuck halfway in, and then give disc error messages on the screen on my 96 sc400.

I could eject it by taking a thin pen or such and dragging it in between so that it would catch the cd and push it back in as it dragged across.

I got Qtips and window washer fluid (guy at Denver Radio Repair told me to use that) and wiped the rollers gently, but long enough to get them perfectly clean.

All 12 discs will load up properly and play now.

It's an easy enough fix that most probably already know what to do, but I'm an newbie here and had to figure it out for myself.

I have a problem similar to this but my problem is that my disk changer is stuck in there and will not eject at all...help please

It won't eject if one of the discs are stuck halfway.

Are you sure one of the lower ones isn't stuck part way?

If it is, take something narrow and strong, (I used a very thin pen) and start at the outside edge, and drag it to the other side. It will catch the cd and the pen will move along the curve of the cd and push it back in. Then it will let you eject it.

Don't know if that is your problem, but if so, that's how you get it to eject the cartridge.

why window washer fluid and not like, rubbing alcohol just wondering. but that's also cuz I have the same problem and i have rubbing alcohol, and not window washer fluids.

No rubbing alcohol is for cassette tape player but not cds.
Cd use a lens so that's glass and not a magnetic head like tape players does.
