My other half has an Astra and the alternator went on it a while back, necessitating a change. To make sure the car got down to the dealer I switched the battery to one that I knew had a full charge for the 3 mile journey. However the CDC didn't like that and has never worked since, displaying "CDC Safe".

The other week I got a new Car Pass for the car from Vauxhall and entered the code, which thankfully worked. However it then displayed the message "CDC Error" and automatically switched back to the Radio. I tried popping the CD magazine out of the changer and this won't budge, necessitating several expletives . I'm now a little bit stuck with what to do next.

Anyone else experienced something like this that can offer any advice?

The stereo and the CD changer both have seperate codes - i`m presuming that both have been entered correctly ?

The radio was working anyway without the need to reinput the code. I'm only assuming that the CD code was correctly entered because it went from "CDC safe" to "CDC Error" immediately after the code was entered.

Sounds like wrong code entered to me?

Send it over and I can check it out
