In Reply to: CD door keeps opening & opening posted by Mr. Freeze on January 7, 2021 at 20:07:19:
This happens on Xbox/360 drives. 10 times out of 10 the problem is that the belt is slipping too much to pull the optical pickup block/ spin motor tray into position, the drive controller realizes that it is taking to long to finish pulling the disc in so it gives up and ejects the disc.
A temporary fix/diagnostic would be to push the tray in as hard is you can which will give it a running start and improve the chances of the drive being able to pull the reading mechanism into position.
A semi permanent fix is to take the drive apart, clean the belt and pulleys with something like Windex and Q-Tips. If the belt is too stretched out you may have to replace the belt.
A longer lasting solution would be to find a CD ROM drive that uses gears instead of a belt to work the tray if replacing it is an option.
The permanent solution is to use a source with no moving parts to wear out and break down over time.
