Hi folks,

I recently installed a Sony 6 cd changer in the back of my ONE with the 'connects 2' adaptor which uses the existing Mini pre-wiring. I can get the changer to power up but can't actually get it to play cds?!?!?

I've got a mini MD headunit with the radio boost but i can't for the life of me find a way to operate the CD changer

i've tried pressing the mode button but it only switches between MiniDiscs and the radio.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Iain

Anyone at all?

It is possible that the unit is not compatable with the HU. Mikey has stated that they changed the communication protocol at some point and getting anything other than the OEM one to work was hit and miss.
