How to Remove a CD That Is Stuck in a Jeep Cherokee

Compact discs can easily get stuck in your car CD player, no matter what kind of car you have, and the Jeep Cherokee is no different. The stock CD player on the Cherokee is similar to that found in many cars. When discs get stuck, it can be difficult to use your player properly or eject the discs without trouble. There are methods you can attempt to dislodge the CD without harming the music or the player.

Things You'll Need

  • Paperclip or pen
  • Enter your car and turn your ignition key to the "Acc" position to engage the CD player system.

  • Press and hold the "Eject" button on the system, or the "Eject" and "Power" buttons, for up to three minutes to attempt to force the CD out through the normal --- but extended --- process.

  • Press the "Reset" button on the face of the player to attempt to force the disc out as the player reconfigures itself. This button is a small black indentation and must be pressed with a pen or a paperclip.

  • Insert the tip of a blank disc into the player and attempt to lodge it underneath the stuck CD to push it up or down into the ejecting track as you hold the "Eject" button.
