CD Stuck in Head Unit...

Is there a way to manually eject CDs from the head unit? We've got a 2014 GS spec with a single slot CD player.

Wife has just come in and said it was stiff to take a CD, so she pushed it in... apparently about half way it did take the disc in itself. Then made lots of horrible clicking noises and the screen came up with something like drive error.

Had a look and it started making clicking noises again then calmed down. Now if I press eject it's just saying no disc in drive?

Ok so quick fix... after pulling fuses as suggested...

I wrapped some tape around an old bank card and poked in the slot. Pulled out the CD my wife had put in. At this point the system kept throwing up drive errors every time i unlocked the car seemingly trying to eject a cd and failing. I couldnt get a new cd in again.

During the attempted eject cycle I put the sticky tape card back in and removed another cd.... It then tried to eject another cd....

So I think long story short the previous owner had got 2 cds stuck in it. It's a new car to us and the first time using the cd player. So that made 3 CDs in a single slot cd player... Laughing Rolling Eyes

Still being new to FL2 ownership,5 months, can I suggest that the previous owner mistakenly thought he/she had the older 6 CD player and kept trying to load cd,s. Into the later version.
Just my thoughts. I have the 6 CD player and think it is fantastic. Jim A
