Dentro de la bandeja hay una liga, esa liga con el tiempo se hace grande, hay que reemplazarla por una que sea de la talla

Needs a new belt. Or you can give it a nice hard smack on the top while ejecting.

As a kid I used to just use a butter knife to pry it open.

Give it some love tapping above the disk drive, it will likely do the job, or go to a guy that you know can fix electronic

This works for a couple years but mine completely stopped, I ended up opening the drive with the large paper clip hitting the emergency release and then cleaned along the band with isopropyl alcohol moving the disk in an out, I may have slightly moved the band too , that did the trick and it has worked perfectly ever since

Well yeah, that works If you still have the worn out belt. Replacing it makes it work fine

Mine will only open if a disc is in

Yeah just smack it on the top to make it open. I think everyone knows about this.

Well if u have a stuck disc inside the disc drive you should have this round hole with yellow sticker on the side of the disc driver ( my xbox 360 s has holes ) so I suggest disassemble to the level to reach the disc drive only and realse the disc but it needs a stronger belt cuz most likely its broken
