Hello, I have a liteon inc ihes212 blueray combo. The dvd tray will open by itself at computer shutdown and startup. sometimes it will do it at comouter sleep mode. My system is windows 7 home premuem
It will play a movie okay. Sometimes it will keep opening after a disk is in tray. Once it stays shut it will play the movie to the end. Sometimes it will stop with the opening of the tray after a few days, it will start opening by itself at shutdowns and restarts of the system. Last night it would not stay closed (11-10-13). I removed the unit and reinstalled my original HP unit, which is not a blue-ray, which works fine. no more opening problems. I noticed a rattling noise when I hand shook the Ihes212 before storing the unit back in the box it came in. Any help would be great. The warranty has expired. I have never had a unit go out this fast, and won't buy another lite-on product again.

Check for loose contact, dry solder at the power connector end, try cleaning the lens, most of the times the rubber belt that is used to drive the tray gets loosened due to time factor and usage
I had the same problem with my LiteOn dvd re-writer. It appears to be caused by a worn or slipping drive belt. I found the following link helpful http://www.mmmonkey.co.uk/console/other/360belt.htm
After manually ejecting the tray using a bent paperclip, the drive belt was easily removed, washed in warm soapy water, dried thoroughly and re-attached. Tray opened and closed perfectly. Still looking for a new replacement belt though!
Take a paper clip, bend it, and insert it into the small pin hole on the front of the player. It should be next to the eject button. This will open the tray up manually.
What my mother always said was Ghosts? More than likely your problem? Should be the disk that came with the Lite-on was a 16 bit app.The pc in the registry is more than likely set to 32 bit app. Easy is to make yourself a copy of the download from lite on for the updated driver.If you deleted go back to them and download another. Copy it to disk, put in the cd,or dvd rom to check thats what you have! Now that you have it, go to control panel remove the disk you first installed that came with your lite on! Also remove it from the trash container on your homepage. Shutdown and restart PC. Now see what Did? If the errors gone If the litedoes everything it is programed to? Your the man! If not, then we go back to control panel and remove the other driver you downloaded from liteon? Go to the homepage and take out the trash.Shutdown and reboot? Then after she restarts and all the startup programs are loaded? We install the one you have on the disk.Open the control panel,set up to install program? Put in the disk with the program liteons Driver disk. After the liteon drivers installed. Go to the shutdown and restart PC. After windows loaded all is idle, then you test the liteon drive.No errors ,is the thing we are searching for.OK shoot me an email to say you're the man !You fixed it? Good luck!
Straighten-out a thick paperclip and push it into the small hole just below the tray, usually towards the center-left. It must be pushed in straight, and when you meet resistance, use a little force. This is the drive's "emergency open" system. Get the disk out and then replace the drive with a different brand like Samsung, HP, Plextor, etc.
The tray is either broken, or off track. You may be able to get it back on track by opening the cover and checking it out, but unplug it first, and only try this if warrantee is over and you're feeling brave...
