I just bought a 99 tl and im tryin to work the cd player magazine..it says it takes 6 in the manual..but in the magazine i can only put in 4? So i put in 4 and hit the cd button ..nothing happens....

 

Dude, that's not a cd magazine. That's just a cd holder. You are talking about the thing above the stereo right?

 

oh really haha i didnt know that i thoght it was a 4 disc cd changer! oh well...so i put in a disc inthe cd player..it takes awhile to play when i change tracks..Do i need to clean the cd player?

 

Congratulations on buying the 1999 TL!

I bought one a few months back and I still have a lot to learn about it. And this is the place to find out about it.

The OEM CD players in the 1999 TLs are sometimes tempermental. I sometimes get long delays between tracks also.

You will also run into problems if you try to play CD-Rs.

hahah


yea it only plays one disc. and it WONT play burned disc


you need the 02-03 6 CD changer to do so


if you would like one, i have one working and ready to be shipped. PM me =]

 

It might WORK if you try using a name brand CD-R quaility stuff, and try burning it at a low speed 8x is working for me, Vertibrain, Fuji Film and Samsung CD's are working great for me.. sony cd-r are not working to mattre what speed its burned at.

 

i tried fujifilm even at low burn speed it doesnt work for 5min then it plays..then takes forever to go to next track..i trieed 2 memorex cds..only of them worked out fine...anyway i can clean the cd player w/o removing it

 

Yeah, I have the same car and it played one burned CD that was made in the 90s. So as you can imagine, it was definitely a low-speed disk. I finally got sick of it and just got a Pioneer put in a few months ago. I was all hung up on not wanting an after-market cd player messing up the appearance of my console. Now I'm like, whatever!!!! I can play so much music now that I'm perfectly content. I should've replaced the factory cd player a loooong time ago!

 

burn speed doesnt matter. i've burned at 40x and 48x w no probs. its the cd-r's quality that matters. fujifilm and sony work for me although fujifilm is a cheap cdr it gets the job done. its not gonna b perfect... takes a while for cd to play and change tracks but its better than nothing. jes get blitzsafe like me

 

blitzsafe with a kuda mount. really good and nice set-up. will be best because its direct connect with all the songs with no cd's =)

 

We all have blonde moments....
