Eclipse CD-8445 Will Not Read ANY CDs!

wtf, my Eclipse CD-8445 will not read CDs. Doesn't matter if it's a real CD, burned audio cd, or burned mp3 data cd...it just doesn't read it. I stick the CD in and after about a minute it spits it out and says Info 3.

It started doing this out of the blue pretty much...literally it was playing a CD and then I got back in my car an hour later and it wouldn't read it.

Any ideas? I know Info 3 means it can't read the CD...but that doesn't really help me too much. I doubt I'm still under warranty as I got the head unit more than two years ago.

united radio will fix it. Iirc it's about a $100 minimum including shipping both ways. I didn't have mine fixed so I dunno if it will be more than that.

$100 is harsh...thanks for the info

Sounds like a bad laser. That sh*t happens.

Either a bad laser or a burnt out motor.

My motor on my Xbox360 laser died. =|

Yeah... that's right. My Xbox 360. It sucked.
