UPDATE:

I was able to swap out the blue connector. I used a little screw driver to press in on the locking clip and once released, it popped the connector off just like you guys said it would. The new Aux connector is on.

Here's the problem, I don't know how to program the HU to enable the Aux feature. I watched a couple videos on YouTube and one guy held down the TP button for 8 seconds. That did not work on this deck.

Anyone know how to do that?

Meir et all,

Yeah, I did get the blue connectors swapped out. I also don't car about using the CD change.

I just can't figure out how to program it

Rick3000 and all hands on deck that may know a trick or two!!

That was a good idea. Made sense to me so I tried it. I loaded a CD into the CD Change (Steely Dan) and the changer grabbed the changer jacket made a noise (like it was working in a good way).

I went in the car and it said the CD was loading. It cycled through all 6 CD's said nothing was loaded and went back to the radio. I figured I must have loaded the disk up-side-down.

Now, the changer will not eject the CD jacket. I cannot get it to release it.

So I read some posts on this topic and one of the logical suggestions was to cycle to power to the Changer. Long story short, I removed the changer from its mounting so I could get to the power cable, but I cannot get the cable to separate!! The two arrows line up with each other, but I cannot rotate the plug connector or pull it apart. I don't want to force anything here.

So, it's all back together, but I'm at two losses now; how to program the deck to "see" the AUX and how the heck to get my changer to release that disk!!

HELP!!!

this one is for the 220. see if it works.

To enable AUX on CDR-220;

1. Turn radio on
2. Press and hold the "TP" button for about 8 seconds until "Becker 1" is displayed.
3. Turn the Tuning Knob until AUX OFF is displayed.
4. Press either button located directly under the Arrows on the display to
change the present setting from OFF to ON.
5. Turn radio OFF.
6. Turn Radio back “ON” and press “S” button to select AUX Mode.

Mier and particlewave,

I don't think my CR-210 can be programed. When I press the TP button for any length of time, it just spins through all the radio stations.

particlewave, how exactly do you trick it? Can you explain the process?

Thx!!
