I have a 2005 Ford Escape?

It has a factory 6 disc CD/Radio, the radio works just fine, but the CD player won't play, won't eject the CD's already in it, push the Cd button and the words "wait" appear, it beeps but nothing happens, any help ideas?

Sounds like the CD changer is gone. Look in e-bay for a entire new changer, remembering that that same changer could be in a Mazda, Mercury, or several other types of cars.

I have heard of this happening more than once. The unit will have to be opened up to remove the cd's. And it will have to be replaced. I would not buy another one of the same brand and type as you WILL have the same problem later.
