Hi,

I have had this problem previously. The main problem is that you lazer has become weak. This can easily be solved by having a new lazer installed or having your original lazer tweeked.

Cheers!

When i load a disc open tray keeps coming up, it says reading disc for a couple of seconds then says open tray. how can i fix this myself

This problem can not be fixed yourself. The lens has either become scratched or dirty, and can not read discs. Send the console in to Microsoft support and they can fix it under the terms of your warranty.

Hold your finger over the back of the straw so that the liquid stays in until you are over the engine top.Then I put in a disc cleaning disc for about 10 sec and then put in saints row 2 and it hasn't said "open tray" for about two weeks and counting.....

Reads the games but only says close tray and open tray

It sounds like you will need a drvie replacement or motor. Sometimes the magnetic disc on the motor comes loose and it sticks to the top of the dvd drive cover and causes it to not function. We can fix this for you if your interested email us.
