Is it repairable

[blacknight]

My aunt has a 2001 Accord SE.
Her stock radio doesn't work anymore.
CD/Tape/CD Changer
Her problem is whe was playing bootleg & copied CD's and now her H/U dsn't work.
Is it repairable?

Right now she's using my stock H/U but I told her DO NOT play bootleg or copied CD's in there

i don't see why a bootleg / copy cd will make a stock HU go bad. i've played copied cds when i had my stock HU and it worked fine. i think it might something else that caused it. maybe you can reset the headunit?

You're one of the lucky ones.
Many Stock honda H/U's don't play copied/bootleg CD's for long.

I was thinkin' the same thing.

the data on copied CDs are not burnt deep enough... thus, the CD player needs to read the disc faster and harder.... this causes the data reading lense to go bad prematurely... tht's what i understand from burnt CDs.... or at least how chipped PS2 work..
