    I have an F430 coupe fitted with Becker 6111 Cascade. CD changer works but CD in single slot won't eject when I press eject - just keeps playing. What else could I try to get it out?

    Did you ever get this fixed? My Burned CD won't eject as well. The CD spins but doesn't play. Other CD's work fine but I can't get it out now.

    I've read the otherwise comprehensive Becker Cascade 6111 Operator's Manual (nice unit-even does your laundry) and I can post the pdf for th manual upon request. No help in the manual.

    Emergency Eject - Many cd radios have a tiny inconspicious hole near the CD to poke a straightened paper clip as a tool for help. Try in several positions of power on/off etc. Even try the eject button with the menu in other functions.

    The 6111 manual warns mentions several times again burnt cd, fearing copyright issues. I suspect they intentionally cater to the copyright holders by capturing them much as old VISA card machines would keep cards which had expired or over-withdrawn. Loose cables can cause binding and require careful intervention with a pocket ruler.

    One trick it a steel pocket I've used is an engineers ruler using double sticky Scotch tape and attempting to grab the cd with adhesion of the tape.
