How to Fix DVD or CD Player That Won Open

How to fix DVD drive tray that doesn open or eject

Go Video dvd vcr player dvd wont eject fix repair

If you take off the top cover you might find that a drive belt that moves the tray is either off or broken. They are cheap to replace you just need to measure the diameter in MM and then enter "drive belt XXmm" into Google go for the nearest size to your measurement.

It's likely a belt that drives the tray has snapped or come off! If you take the top off you might well see it!

Someone is going to have to open it and look to see if the disc inside is out of position or jammed in some way----sometimes you can gently move it a little back into the position where it will eject the disc--which could be your entire issue.

You should try unplugging the DVD player from its power source then plugging it back in. Now try to open it and if that doesn't work than you'll probraly have to take it apart to get the disk out but sometimes the DVD players can get worn out or if you have a cheaper DVD player it might just be freezing up on you. I have had these problems before. I just took the DVD player apart to get my disk and then trashed it.

Hi,

Try pressing repeatedly the eject button while you turn on the unit. If this doesn't work then it is a mechanically problem in your player.You need to be manually open to take out the dvd.The rubber thread which should be connected to the motor inside the DVD player might have moved from its place.
You need to place the rubber thread to proper place.

Furthermore, if the belt is slipping, the mechanism never gets the "drawer closed" signal, and the disk will not spin.

After a DVD player has been used for awhile, another common problem is that the laser in the DVD player becomes misaligned, inhibiting its ability to read DVDs. So it indicates the defective laser motor. The only way to fix this problem is to bring the unit to a service center for repair.

Hope this helps.

Please feel free to ask us if you have any further queries.

try holding the eject button for 15 - 30 sec.

did you ever find a solution for this problem, I am currently experiencing the same thing

this is for people who really wants to watch there dvd movies no matter what region it is on a pal ps3 all you have to do is burn it onto a dvd-r and make that dvd region free, below are instructions on how to do that

ok i'm not sure if this will work on an NTSC ps3 console.

software required
dvd decrypter
dvd regionfree
dvd fab platinum 5 (you can use this software with the dvd region free without the dvd decrypter program but i don't do it this way, i like to do it the long way)

instructions
1. after installing all software load dvd region free and dvd decrypter
2. extract the entire movie into a seperate folder
3. run dvd fab plat 5 select movie folder and away you go

alternatively just install dvd region free and dvd fab plat 5 and do it all in one go with this software i've never done it this way before because i think it may not take out the region code doing this method but again i'ved never tried and it is alot faster

note: these software is very basic to use so i didn't go step by step on how to do what you want it to do

this i've tried this and tested and it works, i recommend doing it this way, it will benefit you, because then it will become a backup of the original copy incase something happens to it, and then you can't even play it anymore.

hope this helps everyone

You need to "Finalize" the disc, or it will not play on any other dvd player other than your LG. Finalizing the disc permanently commits any data onto the disc, no more writing or editing can be done.
