Taking it apart and putting it back together shouldn't require a recode. I recently took apart my 6CD changer to install a Bluetooth module and no recoding was necessary. As for swapping another one in—as far as I understand—it shouldn't be an issue, provided that you find a changer with the same part number and swap it with your (potentially) faulty one. The important part would be to connect it to your original PCB in the metal casing of the unit (though I could be wrong).
