Unhappy Dash Changer help?

Okay, so where EXACTLY did I go wrong here?

I bought a used Honda in-dash changer from someone on e-bay.
Then I installed it without disconnecting the battery terminal.
Now the changer says "EJEC" and then "ERR" when I switch to the changer.

I heard that the changers have a tendancy to jam. Is this the problem, and is there a way to fix this problem? Because I doubt the seller would help me, and I don't think that Honda will help, nor would it be on warranty.

Any help?

Well, I got a cheap price for the changer, and if I can't do anything with it, I might as well take it apart and see what I can come up with.
Has anyone else tried to do this? I figure it won't hurt to start messing with it if is my newest paperweight. Worst comes to worst, it becomes the newest paperweight with extra pieces lying around...

yeah, it sounds like you might have gotten ripped off unless the seller told you it was screwed. Because it sounds like you got a broken changer.
