Cd / radio reset?
I HAVE a 2008 Equinox LS and suddenly the CD-in light is always on even
when there is no CD in the player, so it won't take-in a CD. But this only happens half the time, the other half of
the time it works. Nor does the chime work when i push the eject button, that
only works rarely.
Are there some buttons i can push to reset it to factory settings? Will it lock
me out if i dont have the codes?
The radio is a Fujitsu Ten Limited 25956995.
Any help will be great.

Do you think pulling the fuse will lock me out? I bought the car used and i looked around for the code, but i don't see it anywhere.
Thanks for your help.

No, it can't lock you out because it doesn't use a code like the older radios. The anti-theft measure is built-in because the radio has the VIN programmed into it and is retained when the power is disconnected. It won't work if it's installed in another vehicle unless the thief has the expensive dealer-level equipment required to reprogram it.

So you're 100% sure that a 2008 Equinox with a Fujitsu radio won't have a loc-out code if i take out the fuse?
Because i had a chevy service dept. man tell me it would lock me out, but im not so sure if i believe him, he seemed irrational to me,
but i just don't know, i just got this car 6 months ago.
Thanks for your replies.

Resetting your radio will depend on the year of the model, as the systems are different.
Step 1: On the dashboard of your automobile, click the "Home" button.
Step 2: Click the "Systems" tab under "Settings"
Step 3: Select "Return to Vehicle factory settings."
Step 4: Verify that the stereo system's settings have been reset to default.
