I have a 2013 impala that has a CD stuck in the CD player on the factory radio. The radio works great but the CD playing light stays on. I have pushed the eject button probably more than 100 times but the CD will not eject. The CD was stuck inside the radio when I bought the car. Last week I removed the radio and removed the face plate and could see the CD inside the load / eject slot. I was able to grab the CD with a pair of needle nose pliers but could not pull it out. Anyone know a way to remove the CD? The reason I removed the radio last week was to replace it with another radio from a 2009 impala. After swapping them the display on the 2009 radio said LOC which I assume means locked and a code is needed for this radio to work. I reinstalled the radio with the stuck CD since at least I could listen to the radio. Any help removing the CD is appreciated.

I slide an old credit card part way in the slot and press eject...pull the card out at the right time and the friction from the card it may help eject the cd

Will give that a try today

Now all I can listen to is a Christian CD.

sounds like a win.

keep trying...put the card in and simultaneously press eject and pull the card out.

only the dealer can unlock a radio. you would have to install the radio and take the car to the dealership.
