CD/DVD players use a protocol;
Open tray. Insert disk. Tray switch tells mechacon that the tray is shut. Attempt to focus on disk.
If focus is acheived, then it will spin up and try to read the disk otherwise it will ask for a readable disk.
If the tray keeps opening, I would suspect the tray detect switch is malfunctioning, maybe the drive belt has stretched.
Presuming you are talking about a CD-ROM drive, you should first check your manual for information on operating the drive. There are many ways drive trays may be opened. Sometimes there is a button on the laptop that has the standard symbol for CD eject on it that will open the cd tray. Sometimes, there is a small button on the cd-tray itself that when depressed will cause the tray to open after a small delay. This all presumes that you don't have a tray-less
CD drive, that is just a slot on the side of your laptop. If the CD tray is stuck, because of some problem, look for a small hole on the face of the CD tray. Take a straightened out paper clip and push it gently STRAIGHT into the hole until you feel it stop against a bar. Push just a little harder, and the tray should pop open. This latter procedure should only be used when all other methods have failed to open the CD tray.
There are little gears to open the tray with a little rubber belt that drives it you should be able to open door and pull on tray to get disk out if not unplug it take top off push tray out Cheapper to replace player than to fix but little flap should pull down grab tray and pull
open tray, unplug power cord while tray is open, plug power cord in, let tray close, open tray again, put disk in, close tray and tap on top of the drive while it loading.
Try tapping above the disk drive or if that doesn't work open the tray take your disc out close the tray. open the tray put ur disk back in and close the tray again.
Hi, this is caused because your laser is either dirty or starting to fail. Take your 360 and turn it on, then open the tray. As soon as the tray is open, unplug your 360. Now with the tray open use a can of compressed air or an air compressor and blow out the DVD drive .And see if it is because your laser is dirty. Take your 360 and plug it back in and try putting a disc in it. If it still gives you the "open tray" error, then your laser is not reading the disc and needs to be replaced.
You could have a faulty drive. To open the tray, you need a paper clip, straighten it and place it in the small hole below the disc tray, push it in and the tray wull pop out slightly, remove paper clip and pull the tray fully out with your fingers. Then try to close and open the tray with the push button, if it does not work you need to replace this drive with a new one.
Look for a small pin hole in the front of the DVD player. Insert a pin into the hole to open the tray.
Also try right clicking the DVD icon, click 'eject', then insert the pin into the hole.
If the door only opens partially, grab it and pull it open. Then insert a blank DVD into the tray, then see if the tray will open automatically with the disk in the tray. If so, then keep a DVD in the tray at all times.
My console does the same thing just take the faceplate off and when you press the open button grab the disc tray and gently assist your console in pushing out the tray. Taking the faceplate off does not terminate your warranty.
