Assuming your disc isn't damage. The problem is with the optical lens of the dvd drive. (the laser) You can attempt a potimeter tweak, to the optical lens. Get yourself a micrometer and a 1.8mm screwdriver. Then email me at [email protected] for directions. :) (This is only a TEMPORARY fix, but it will work long enough for you to either get a replacement laser or to sell the Xbox360) A BRAND NEW laser for the Xbox360 costs $8-13 with shipping included, off of eBay! You will need to know which type of laser to purchase though. If you have a Samsung or a Hitachi drive = SF-HD63. A Ben-Q or Lite-on drive = Hop-141x.

The game disc might be scrached, or smudged... look at the disc CAREFULLY and see. It might not be the disc, (try another one, and if that doesn't work) you'll have to (unplug it first) take the top cover off and look at the optical lense and see if it is scrached or smuged, (or dusty) If it is the disc (meaning another one works) then clean it with a COTON cloth and try that. or get a disc scratch remover (15 to 45 bucks) and use that. If it isn't the disc, Buy a new system ($$) or a new lense($$$$)
Good luck!

My Xbox wont read the game inside and constantly asks me to open and close the tray so that it can read the disc

Either the laser lens is dirty or dusty and needs to be cleaned with rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab. If cleaning doesn't work, then the laser lens circuit may be faulty and needs to be replaced.

The console works (comes on , tray opens and closes,) after putting disc in tray and closing it makes a sound like disc reading then stops ,nothing on screen ,,Is this a replace the laser job??

its not dealing with the laser. your cord inside connecting your ps2 top cover to your tray might be lose or not connecting like it should. take apart the ps2 and see if it is connected. if not place it back inside the tray slot inside of the ps2.

The power light blinks, reads open tray/close tray . . .

it sounds like your dvd drive is dead if its still under warranty you should just send it back to microsoft the only other thing you could do is buy a replacement dvd drive and put it in yourself but only do that if microsoft wont take it or you'll void your warranty

My xbox disc tray will not close

The tray component gears were probably stripped and the tray is now shifted vertically to high or low. Because when the tray moves back and forth the inside eye set up moves into the disc to hold it. Solution Have X-Box fix you problem for around $80 or less. Call 1-800-4MY-XBOX. They will send you a postage paid box. Also check to make sure nothing lose was in the xbox and also try to slam the door hard over and over as it try to slid in itself.
