Manual eject cassette on Toshiba TX972 car CD player?

[Amanda Riphnykhazova]

Does anyone know if there is a way of ejecting the cassette from this CD cassette player without connecting the power please?

Or do I have to pull the whole thing to bits?

Don't know your specific, but on mine,I'd WANT to take some of it to bits.
Just to inspect that removing the cassettee does not wind the tape
everywhere inside. Last time I did this, I had to pull the unit slightly
apart to gain access to the little wheels inside then manually turn those
little wheels until the cassette walked its way out.

Not in this case I fear, it is a CD cassette, not a tape cassette

not familiar with that. I once couldn't figure out how to remove a CD from
a CD player. Some kind soul [without calling me stupid] said take a paper
clip [stiff wire] and poke it through the tiny hole in the front and
'feel' around to push the grears directly and sure enough the cassette
'walked' is way out of the player ...be sure power is OFF.
