Steps to take when the receiver or amplifier won't play your RCA CD player's audio signal

• Check the receiver or amplifier settings and select the correct audio input source on the receiver or amplifier if necessary.
• Check the audio cable connections between the CD player and the receiver or amplifier. Reconnect any loose audio cable connections. Replace the audio cables if they're damaged.
• Check the compact disc to make sure it's inserted in the tray properly. The label of the CD disc should be facing upward.
• Check the compact disc media side for deposits or scratches. Clean the compact disc thoroughly if you find spills or deposits on the disc.
• Reset the CD player control board by unplugging the CD player from the electrical wall outlet for several minutes. Plug the CD player power cord back in to the electrical outlet and attempt to play the compact disc again.

Troubleshooting your RCA CD player when it won't power up

• If you're using the remote control to attempt to power up the CD player, try using the power button on the CD player to power it up.
• If the CD player won't power up when you press the power button on the player, check the power cord. Plug the CD player power cord securely into the electrical wall outlet if the outlet cord plug is loose.
• If the CD player power cord is properly plugged into the electrical wall outlet, check the electrical outlet for power by plugging a different item into the wall outlet. If the wall outlet is dead, reset the house circuit breaker for the wall outlet. Have an electrician repair the wall outlet if it remains dead after resetting the house circuit breaker.
• If you have the CD player plugged into a surge protector, check for a tripped circuit breaker on the surge protector. Reset the surge protector circuit breaker if it's tripped.
• If the CD player is getting power through the power cord but won't power up, you may need to replace the power supply board in the CD player.
