CD or DVD Drive Drawer Won't Open - How to Fix
I discovered this procedure, on my own, about 12 years ago after my LiteOn HDD DVR disc drawer failed to open. Today, I had another DVD drive that would not open, so I decided to produce a video of the simple fix.
After a few months to about 1 year, CD or DVD drive drawers typically begin to open only some of the time, but the problem worsens over time. The only way to open the closed drawer is with an opened paper clip. Using a paper clip to open the drawer is frustrating.
Typically, out of frustration, drives are discarded and replaced when the drawer stops opening. When my LiteOn DVR disc drawer failed to open, there was no hole to insert a paper clip, so I had to replace or repair the DVD drive because I wanted to keep the DVR. I tried a different DVD drive, and discovered that some DVDs could not be read properly, because the DVR's firmware required a specific drive to be used.
I needed to fix the original DVD drive. After examining the drive, I realized the cause of the failure is that the belt is slipping.
I knew that when belt dressing dried, it left a sticky residue, so I applied belt dressing to the belt in my DVR's DVD drive, and the drawer still opens 12 years later. Belt dressing can be purchased from auto parts stores under various manufacturers.
