Hey guys Ive got a JVC unit and for some reason it stopped ejecting CD's ever since I had to get my car jumped. This happened about 2 weeks ago. It says Ejecting on the screen and it switches from CD to radio but the motor doesnt even make a noise like its trying at all and no CD comes out. Someone please help cuz Im getting freaking sick of this damn CD!

most likely you fuked it up after you jumped your car.

Jumping a car is supposed to be a last resort because you can fry electrical components in the car. Doesnt usually happen, but does.

So is it fixable?

I've heard of this problem with JVC's before and I do not believe it is fixable unless you have warranty

Personally, I'd say the probability is high that it's a coincidence. You jumped your car and your JVC **** the bed. Besides, how possibly could Jump starting a vehicle hurt the electrical system if it was done properly?

jump starting a car should be a last resort. Any time your car doesnt start, the best thing to do is replace the battery. Next best thing would be to charge it. Jump starting the car could have serious side effects. You can throw voltage all accross the system and damage electrical parts, whether done correctly or not. Remember certain electrical items can only handle a half volt or so, any more can ruin the part. Especially the ECU. at any second some voltage could shoot up and damage the ECU. That is why jumpstarting should be a last resort. No body cares though and does it.

Most cd players come with a reset button,did you try pushing it?

And you could get hit by lightning 3 times in the same place. The best thing to do is replace the battery if your car won't start? Well the best thing to do if your roof leaks is to buy a new house, but let's be serious. It's stupid to dump $100 everytime you run your battery dead, when A simple charge will restore the battery to most of it's original charge. As far as jump starting goes, you provide ~14.4v to the battery terminals and from there, the electricity does the job of the battery. Can something go wrong? Yes. Does your car have surge protection? yes. Is it likely something will go wrong? HELL NO. Is the risk worth buying a new battery instead of Jumping? Not if you are normal. If you are interested in jump starting a vehicle and you are worried about your VCMs, you should simply not start the vehicle you are using to jump the dead one.
Common sense, why do you think auto manufacturers would give specific instructions on how to jump a vehicle in the manual if it were bad for the car? Jumping a car is like all things. If you do it right, it works well. If you blow it, there are reprocussions.

Sometimes my cd wont come out of the HU when i leave the car outside in the cold, but the motor still makes noise. I have a JVC too so iguess itneeds to be replaced soon.

Batteries are charged by the alternator on your engine. When they are charged they internally generate both hydrogen and oxygen gas from the electrolysis of the water, remember your high school chemistry class, H2O? Well, if you make a spark in the vicinity of the battery there is a pretty good chance that you will ignite this highly combustible mixture with a resulting explosion and very rapid distribution of battery acid!!! Bad Stuff!! Also be aware that even if you do connect the batteries together correctly there is a slight chance that one of the batteries could explode due to an internal short circuit in either battery. Never place your head directly over the batteries during these procedures!!

This is why it is RECOMMENDED to replace your battery instead of jump starting it. No body does that cause they dont want to buy a new battery. But it should be a last option if you can buy a new battery, if not, then go ahead and jump start.

I respect what you are saying but the fact is, your are talking about such a slight probability. Yes there is a "slight chance" that your battery will blow up due to a short internally. But there is a "slight chance" that a pellican will **** on my head every time I leave my house. Sure its possible if the moon is in the right phase and saturn is over pluto that a spark will ignite the gasses in your battery. Does it happen? Yep. (Hindenburgh), but not often enough to live your life replacing batteries when a jump would be free. So, if you are worried, AND JUMP IT CORRECTLY, you aren't grounding the cables on or near the batter. You are doing it to some metal somewhere out of the direct vacinity of the battery. Bottom line, no one lives their lives worrying about every possible danger.
