How to Repair a 6 CD on a 2007 Ford F 150
The six-CD changer in a 2007 Ford F-150 allows you to listen to six different discs without changing them. The changer has a disc reader that moves between the six slots to play each disc. Since the changer resides in the F-150s dashboard, its prone to overheating from the temperatures associated with dashboard components, as well as the sunlight striking the dash. While the six-CD player is not repairable by anyone without highly specialized factory training, for the do-it-yourselfer, removing the player for repair or replacement is an easy option.
Instructions

3Reach behind the CD changer and unplug the antenna plug and power/speaker wiring harness connector by hand. Remove the Ford radio removal tools from the CD changer.
