DVD drawer keeps ejecting?

Post by nidge »

I have a v1.2 Xbox, it's a stock non modded console with a Seagate hd and a Samsung DVD drive.
As soon as the console is switched on the DVD drawer ejects, if the button is pressed it will go back in again, for about 3 seconds, then it ejects again. If it is switched off by the power button the drawer will go in, but it will eject again when switched back on.

Things I have done, so far :) Took the drive apart and blown out the dust, cleaned the drive belt and cleaned the lens.
It doesn't make difference if the tray has a disc loaded or not.

Any ideas? :)

It's probably trace corrosion problem.

Might check your P/E button board and switch it out with another one since it's so easy.
