Xbox 360 stuck disc tray - Missing rubber band. Help?

Hey Flood, so I need some help. My Xbox was having the "open tray" error earlier today so I decided to open the tray and clean it all out (this had worked before) However, I accidentally knocked the [url=http://blitzinmedia.co.uk/.media/721735633976.png]rubber band[/url] off of the gears and then when trying to retrieve it my disc tray shut itself. And now I cannot open the disc tray at all to retrieve the band and put it back in place. Does anyone know how I could open the tray manually without the rubber belt? I can't find a way to do it D: Help? Also: It's an [url=http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_m8ZxGilwzps/SxDG4fAJ4FI/AAAAAAAAAUE/cwImymdxWKE/s400/XBOX+360.jpg]Original Xbox 360[/url] [Edited on 07.27.2011 8:14 AM PDT]

I know form experience. However this option is not recommended unless you have already opened your system before.[/quote] I've taken some of it apart before, but not all of it.[/quote]So if you already voided the warranty, then by all means try taking apart the disc drive.

  • Get toothpaste and rub it all over your disks. Then superglue your game disks parallel to the closed disk tray. And then you're done. It's elementary.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ZantKiller1 on the side of the console I think there is a fail safe button in between the grills which opens it manually. [url=http://support.microsoft.com/kb/906935]Here you go Microsoft support team have the answer[/url][/quote] Already tried that, didn't work.
