My 2011 rav4 has the same problem. There seems to be a common issue with this stereo. Try disconnecting the ground terminal on your battery. Then pump the brake pedal with the key in the on position. That drains all the power out of the system and, reboots it. Then reconnect the ground. It should work but, it's only a temporary fix. The player is probably full of dust. Try compressed air in a can and, DVD head cleaning disk. The audio will walk you through it. If the stereo is over 8 years old sooner or, later it will probably need to be replaced. Good luck UA-camrs
When you press "Load" and it is displaying "Wait" you have to put the CD right away and it should load it! Whatever this video is from Nov 7th 2014, so hope you figured it out already :)
I was so upset the other day when my player wouldn't just take my CD. bought the RAV4 in March and just now wanted to use the player and couldn't figure it out at all. Was pissed my "new" car wouldn't take my disc. This tip worked immediately!!!!!!!!!!!!
Same problem, but the load button worked! Thanks man, you just saved me hundreds. Which is great because I can now put that into replacing my roof and the ceiling damage caused by the heavy rains! You Rock!
My radio doesnt have a load button...suppose to be auto load....when i try to put it in it hits hardcstops ....wont go in just like this video but diff radio
I just installed a Brand New OEM Radio CD Player in a 09 Equinox, and it’s doing the same thing. Radio works great, but cd won’t go in. Seems like a door inside keeping it from going in. I can’t find any fixes for this problem on the internet. Ughh! Hope you found a answer for this issue.
Same issue here for the past three years,but it fixes itself (who knows how) The problem comes back for some days to go away for some months again. I think it has to do with cold weather, but I'm not sure. Either the CD stays in or Radio unit "thinks" there is a CD loaded. At any case, the factory radio and speakers are budget parts of Toyota's sound systems (as the seats and dashboard materials of any RAV4 ) At least, as a machine, my 2010 RAV4 is very reliable and with a great handling for its class.
I think this issue might be due to the corkscrew looking rod that the laser tracks on i'm just going to put a dab of electronics grease see what that does.
On mine everything works but I have this problem the on and off knob is wonky it will turn the volume up or down by barley touching it and turning it off and on has turned it up too loud, so I never use the stereo I need some advice everyone, I might just get the stereo replaced but I don't want it too costly, and thought about adding a back up camera aswell.
I had this problem also, mine had a ghost cd on but really there's none. I don't have the load button but when you try to put in a cd the radio just threw it out...🤯 Someone know if there's a reset button🤔? Anyone...
@@marcoslopez7403 No, sometimes you turn on the radio and the cd sign is off but then turn on itself but there's none. I think the best solution is to buy a new sound equipment to my Toyota Rav4. Do you have the same problem?
Enrique Rivera yea I have a 2003 Camry and the cd played won’t let me put anything in I looked inside it and say a white cover and metal thing blocking it off I’m not sure what’s wrong with it
@@marcoslopez7403 New technology is weak bro! My grandpa (r.i.p.) had things in the house that function great for decades but now we had to call for repairs service....I think this will be my present for Christmas this year: a new satellite radio! Traffic without my music is a torture.
I just got a rav4 2010 my first Toyota did Toyota EVER MAKE a WORKING CD player the 1 that came in my car is NON WORKING JUNK how do we let TOYOTA Know this ??
I have the same problem, I have no "load" button. He doesn't show you how to fix it!
Dumbest sh!t I’ve ever seen. Don’t have a load button either. Why post a problem with no resolution!

The solution is here: Press EJECT, then press LOAD. The led screen will flash WAIT, then yu can LOAD CDs up to 6.
When you press "Load" and it is displaying "Wait" you have to put the CD right away and it should load it!

Petar Petrov omggg thank you!! That worked!!
Yep. Just tried pressing the load button and inserted CD immediately after. Problem solved. Thanks much

2021 and this is still helpful information. 😅
Thanks so much!!!
I have same issue, I have pressed the load and eject button, still not working, and your video didn't explain to solve the issue????
2024 and we still have this issue and mine is 2013 RAV4, more modern looking stereo system and no load option. Any suggestion for us?

If you smoke things get gummed up quick not sure if that's the case with you but it might be mine.
My car just swallows the cds and won’t realize that I put a cd in it. Help?

I have a 2010 rav4 and don't have this issue nor do i have to press "load" before I put the CD in. hope u got it fixed.
My 6Disc-Changer works well-oiled, because, BEFORE inserting a disc, I push the LOAD-Butten, and wait, till I'm prompted.
Maybe try an hold it in a few seconds mine did that to then there was a disk actually in it
I have the same problem with my 2008 toyota highlander. The cd player will not open to let me put in a cd and my xm doesn't work.
