Maybe this will work . I had the same problem too and Google didn't help much so I told my mom and she pressed the open tray button and it didn't open while it was trying to she lightly pressed it , the same thing happened the second time but there was a "tucc" sound . the third time it opened and i cleaned it with a cloth .
The Xbox Console is completely operated by electricity.. you cannot open the tray without the console plugged into a power source.
the tray is not in place or it is the laser wut i do is hold the xbox360 faceing up and say your going to throw it off a cliff
Not sure if this is right for the elite but for the white type you just get a butter knife and stick it under the tray to the right, open the tray time just right and thenpull it out when the tray would normally open.
you will need the stuff people use to clean the dust off of computer keyboards and spray the stuff inside the tray that's open and its clean and works
Sounds like it should be taken to a Repair shop
Im not entirley sure how to fix it propally cause mine only opens by controller sometimes, but i know how to open it manually if it's stuck. If you go on the disk tray and take of the silver xbox 360 cover of it. On the left side ther should be a few gaps and holes. With a small scalpel or pocket knife you must find a small rubber band (that helps the disk tray rotate) in side one of those gaps, and gentley stroke it donwards until the disk tray pops out, and you can remove the rest of it manually
You just put the DVD into the CD slot and it will open up a player and start the video!
It usually means that it can not read the disk
It could be that the drive has failed or that something is jammed. Straighten a paperclip then push the wire in the small hole that is just below the tray. That should release the locking mechanism and let you open the tray manually. Have the computer OFF when you do this.
Well if you want the disc then no but it might get scrathed while in there and shipping and i dont know if they send the game back with it, they probably do though.Either that or if the tray doesnt open, you can take a knife and GENTLY pry the tray open, if its on it should open automatically, if its off, just pull it open.
Buy a new tray take the old one out put the new one in
Put it in the disk tray.
