What to do if my Ford Automobile says 'Please check CD'?

  If your Ford Automobile displays a 'Please check CD' error, ensure the disc is loaded correctly. Try cleaning the disc and re-inserting it, or replace it with a music disc that you know works. If the error persists, I am unable to provide further assistance.
