1997 astro van cd error

my van has the theft-loc delco radio with built in cassette player and seperate cd player.they both stopped working on the same day,if you inserta cd or tape they stay in for about 7 seconds than the radio reads error and pops them back out..all the lights work ,everything seems to work on the radio except its not reading cd ortape,the battery was not disconnectedand no work done on the van..if anyone can help....please reply thx.

If you have the theft code on hand, try unplugging the units (or disconnecting the battery) for a few minutes, then hook it back up again, and see if this makes any improvement.

Also, do some "delco" and "delco cd" searches on eBay; a used replacement may be cheaper than getting yours repaired.

I'd never downgrade to an aftermarket radio unless I had to.......plus, there's no direct-fit way to get CD and cassette in an Astro except for the Jensen unit.

If you're sure it's just the remote CD player, pick one up on eBay; they go for around a hundred bucks usually.

Pioneer and JVC both makes double din units for GM vehicles with the cd/tape combo

i know cause the guy i work with has one in his Astro Van

just take a look in the Pioneer and JVC catalogs
