Good vid man, just wanted to make sure this fix is legit and not going to be broken in a week. I just got this 360 about 6 months ago and now sometimes the disk tray gets stuck and when it does open it wont read any of my games! I just want someone to tell me this fix is going to last longer then a week because i don’t have the money to send this thing to microsoft. Please reply,Thanks.

yo my XBOX reads disks but when i play the games the screan looks bad there are like some white lines going up and down alot of lines so i was just wondering if there is something i can do to fix this problem

MegaMaximus2000 December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

you have to format ur hard drive. when you format your hard drive then you go to the same screen and press xx lb rb xx then go to yes wen it says matinence. if that does not work turn of your xbox then from the console pess the sync button and hold it then turn xbox but keep holding the sync button then your done

hey, i replaced the drive a couple months ago it worked for about 4 months? but now it has a different prob. now instead of freezing it has the E71 black screen pop up. is there a part i could use from my old drive to fix the problem on this drive? any help would be much appreciated thanks

i got the drive off ur website did everything but the disc tray will not open. is it a bad drive you guys sent?

ya you need a new motor which can’t really be found without getting ahold of a spare or replacement disc drive, all but the BenQ should be a quick swap [i’m guessing bc the BenQ has wires that must be cut and reconnected

i did everything and my disc drive opens but doesnt read discs. what the fuck.

WARROCKSUCHT December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

I opened my xbox and saw that disc is trying to spin but it can’t so the laser just shuts off, The motor might need some lube, But! I can make it spin just by giving it a boost, that worked for a while then the disc will stop suddenly and it wouldn’t spin anymore and it’s been scratching my games so I suggest not to do it.

looking4truthLOST December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

is this procedure the same with the Phillips BenQ drives and I thought there was a key code needed from original drives to be installed on new drive…?? please reply

looking4truthLOST December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

i am dealing with the same problem.. wear after “reading” it says “open tray” …there are multiple failures that could have occured to cause this; (1) bad laser (2) bad motor (3) bad laser alignment (4) you need a new drive

Armandomongearceyuth December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

My Drive doesn’t start when i turn on my console NOTE: i HAVE A RROD XBOX 360.

I guess my mistake was that I plugged the drive when the console was plugged to the wall.

Do I need to replace my drive or just repari it?

TheConorCampbell December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

I have to open and close my disc tray for about 4 hours before the game works. is this to do with that? please reply.

boomer5212 December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

My cd’s do not spin at all. I took it apart cleaned it with alcohol and then re-lubed it. it still doesnt work.. why wont my disks spin at all?

elliotoscotoroto December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

lol the disc drive that he held up woz actually a dvd drive and only plays dvd, read the label next time dooch lol :P

Can you use another XBox’s disc drive to do this?
Because I have an XBox with red ring, and one that is not reading discs. So can I just take the REd ring and its disc drive and put in other one?

SASUKEMARCO December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

Does someone know of a video that tells me how to FIX the disc drive instead of replacing it?

Halosniper128 December 16, 2009 at 8:00 pm

You dont need special tools to open your 360 dude, just a screwdriver and some time…
