The first thing I would do is make sure you don't have dust bunny in it. Get a can of air and spray it through the opening being carefull to keep the can upright (otherwise you may spray liquid). This may not fix it but worth a try and I have see it before. Don't bother with a cd disk cleaner.

You really don't want to use an air compressor, at least most air compressors. One is many will entrain oil into the air stream. You can have issues with water, with particles, even ice.

But then it sounds like you have more than a simple dust issue that could be removed from the outside. It still may be a simple fix but you most likely have to gain access to do so and if you are not familiar with what you are doing you may want to go for help.

If it has a belt I would look at the pulleys associated with it for indications of belt slippage. Purchase a belt kit, clean parts well and install. if it doesn't have a belt then check for a posible bearing issue associated with the drive. Inspect the laser and lense for a foriegn object such as dirt or residue. Clean with denatured alcohol without getting into any area that may have glue, do not upset alignment.

Check for tacometer circuit. There may be one present to indicate the speed of the drive motor.

Look for problems with the mechanism that senses the presences of a disc. Sometimes there are two but usually only if there is a door present. Depending on supplier such as Clarion (common) for example you may be able to buy replacement parts far cheaper than the dealer.

Consider an aftermarket replacement if it is toast depending on your desire for OEM type of integration.

The cd players are known for failure. I just had my second unit put in the other day. The first one was done under warranty with about 3 months left on the warranty. The radio/cd player was covered under a 12 mo warranty. Since the 12 mo warranty was longer than the remaining time on the bumper to bumper warranty, it was covered again and has another 12 mo warranty.

ok well thanks for the advice guys i think im gona pull the unit and se if i cant fix it. i think it may be toast cause the other day i shut off on me and would not turn back on. until the next day. forget stock replacement i will buy a flip up head unit and install a dash kit for a replace ment.

Any updates on this issue? I developed the same exact problem with my cd player. I hear the Bose systems often have reliability issues.

[dougiefresh7988]

i dont have any updates i really dont wanna put any money into a stero that i know is gonna s*** the bed on me again i took it out but everything is normal with the stero. so my best suggestion for you is buy a dah kit and put in a top of the line stero check out pioneer touch screen series that is what im going with. best of luck to you . if its under warranty bring ti to the dealer at least it will be free to fix.
