The disc drives are a pain. the disc in the drive helps the tray stay down. You can take the box apart and remove the lid on the drive. give it a slight bend and test it out. It has worked of 5out of 5 boxes I have worked on. Good luck

Always leave a disk in it, and it almost certainly won`t happen again. But for this time only, put Xbox on its side, (proper side) and press eject If it still doesn`t open, press eject and tap the tray lightly. It should now open.

Why wont my xbox 360 elite read discs? i put disc in and it comes up reading and then open tray
My only questions are does the console say the discs are damaged in any way? and is the console standing up right?
If the discs are scratched in any way then that might cause the 360 to not read the disc and sometimes having a console play the disc upright (example of upright 360) for a long time can cause dis function when trying to play discs, so try playing the discs with the console on its side (side example) These are my solutions to the problem but you can try these: Solution 1 Solution 2

This is the Open Tray error which basically means that the laser is messed up or your disc is gone. Solution one: Make sure that the disc is clean. Two: Try other discs if it doesnt work choose 3,4 or 5. Three: Buy a new console (Recommended) Four: Send off to microsoft and they will charge you (EXTREMELY NOT RECOMMENDED) Five: Open up and replace laser (NOT RECOMMENDED)

The xbox 360 elites keeps on saying open tray when trying to play
1, the disc may be dirty
2. the mian reason for this your xbox drive cannot read the disc , because the power of the lens is gone(not completely) ,

solution:

1. keep your disc inside the drive and switch off the console, again swith on try this 2 to 3 time
2. keep the console in vertical position or little slanding position(180 dg) make sure it does not fall

3. its better to buy hatddisc and load the game inside it , so that u lens life increased

4. change the entire drive

I can bet you that your xbox 360 is vertical? am I right? If no then my disk holder gets jammed a lot, so i would get 2 small flat head screwdrivers and pry it open. So put your xbox 360 horizontal. This would also fix the problem. If your son still has the language screwed up u have to learn some spanish or watever it is to figure out how to put it back. It would be on profile settings.

X box 360 will not open all the way
You can take a butter knife and put it in the top -in- of the 360 CD door and move it left to right while tapping the open button but you can always use something other than a butter knife..

This worked for original xbox and it should work for the 360.

Put this in an xbox 360 console
Did you try using a cd lens cleaner in the XBox 360 dvd drive? Check the cds that they are not scratched, and you could have your son try the discs in another XBox 360.
