Default CD Changer won't work!

Hey guys, I'm new here and my name's Dan... I have a 99 RX and I love it so far, no major problems at all. But on my way to work this morning the CD Changer stopped working, seemed like it kinda was fading into my FM radio as it went out, real weird, I was listening to a CD at the time but then I could faintly hear the radio in the background, at first I didn't think anything of it because I download songs and every once in awhile you get a crappy quality song... anyway, it fades and when I looked down at the screen it was on FM, just did it by itself. So I tried selecting CD, doesn't work - eject the changer case and reload, try again, didn't work...

I'm sorry I think this has been posted before but I couldn't find it. Does anybody know what the problem is and how to fix it?

Thanks a lot!

WOW!! maybe you should call T.A.P.S and let Jason & Grant take a look their!! Of course I`m just kidding you,sounds like it may be dirty.You may even want to make sure your disc`s are clean (though I dont think that is causing the problem)Try getting one of those cleaners they sell at Staples,and clean the player real good.Hopefully that will help.If you can`t get it to come on at all,then I don`t know what to say,maybe some one else can give some more helpful hints.
