Ok guys... here's what happened... I locked my keys in my '06 Explorer.. I have the keypad on the door, however, the battery was also dead. SO.. I had an auto body shop come over, and the guy got it unlocked. I asked him if he'd also give me a jump. Well, it took like 20 minutes, and nothing was happening except sometimes my interior lights would come on, then the next minute.. nothing. He wiggled the cables around a few times, took them off and tried different ones. Ok this is getting long.. but it's leading to my problem. When he hooked the cables back up, I.. yes me... I noticed he had the terminals crossed on my battery.. ya know.. the red on the black, and black on the red.. I know there's a name for it but I forget..LOL.. Well, I said.. Um... I think ya got that mixed up.. So, it was on the wrong terminals for about 15 seconds or so. Ok, so it finally started, but, it blew a fuse on my stereo. I have the factory 6 cd changer. I got the radio to work, but NOW........ I know for a fact that I have at least 4 cd's in there, and it says NO DISC. When I press the load button, it says LOAD ERROR, and when I press the eject button, it says NO DISC. Someone please.. tell me.. do you think it's screwed up because of the cross terminal thing? Is there some sort of master reset that I can do? Any help is much appreciated! Thanks guys!
fyi.. I have disconnected the power source for 20 minutes as suggested by an installer.. that did nothing. I've also tried to insert a cd into the slot and wiggle it around to maybe 'loosen' any cd that might be stuck. When I did that.. I could hear it inside there trying to do something.. but it's still stuck.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
