Default CD Player Malfunction

Hey guys Im new around here and I was looking for some help for hopefully a easy problem. Now I know this doesnt narrow it down much, but Im hearing all of these issues third hand. I advised a buddy of mine who owns a Rumble Bee to go to another buddy of mine to do a stereo installation. The guy is normally extremely good but has ran into a few problems that no one around here seems to know the answer to off hand. He began to install a different head unit and ran into the factory amp and did not have certification to bypass because of the airbag, (or so he says). He swears he has not touched anything, but upon re-installation of the factory headunit it will not switch into CD mode and they said it displays some code and it means "disclock". I dont know if theres any truth to the code, but has anyone else ran into this problem? If anyone has any sort of help I would really appreciate it and thanks for your time and responses. Thanks guys.

what kind of deck did he put in? did he used the right wiring harness?
i didnt run into anything like that when i installed mine. all you have to do is plug in the wiring harness then splice the deck harness into the universal harness.

What the heck is he talking about? 1: You don't need to bypass the amp in that truck to add an aftermarket radio. 2: Even if it was a vehicle where you did have to bypass it, it has nothing to do with the airbag. Maybe he thinks you need to remove the airbag to get at the amp because it's behind it, but that's not true, you can get to it from behind the glovebox. It's not fun but you can do it. Taking the airbag out would just reveal another wall of plastic and/or a giant metal tube. But again, you don't need to bypass it what-so-ever.

Not sure what the disc lock thing is though.
