Xbox 360 DVD Drive Malfunction

Hitachi-LG DVD drive (ROM 0059DJ) in a v1 Xenon Xbox 360 console. Drive refuses to stay closed, even ejecting after the system is powered off. System suffered from an E74 error when it was given me. The system’s previous owner dropped the console out of frustration (hard enough to crack the case), so I suspect this has something to do with it. I was able to fix the E74 error with a heatgun, but I can’t figure out what to do about the DVD drive. UPDATE: For anyone interested, fixed it by fully disassembling the drive, removing the tray and spinning the gears a bit, then ensuring that the tray was fully closed and the manual eject lever was fully returned to the most forward position. I believe the manual eject was the only real issue. When manual ejecting, you’re pushing in a white plastic lever. This lever lowers the motor platform that the disc sits on and then pushes the tray out. Pushing the tray back in on my own (or powering the drive and using the eject feature) wasn’t enough to get the lever back to it’s fully-forward position, and therefore wasn’t enough to make the platform to raise back to full height. As a result, the disc was not being grabbed between the platform and the magnet and even spun at all, causing the system to simply eject the disc. So, if you’re getting this problem, try just pushing the motor platform/carriage/whatever all the way upward and making sure that lever is where it’s supposed to be. Of course, after all this work and then flashing the

    xbox 360 hitachi dvd drive bumping after spindle clean

    Updated, READ!!! Unmodded 360 from 2005 with Hitachi GDR-3120L 47DJ that worked great, then suddenly 100% “unreadable disc.” I did end up repairing it, and it’s worked great since June 2008. Here’s my history. I think it’s a decent order to follow if you can’t get a warranty or professional repair. But especially now that you can transfer DLC, I would just mail it to MS rather than cracking the case and doing all the tedious tuning. Try canned air – attempt to clean the laser lens. Disassemble 360 and clean laser w/ alcohol. Check if spindle magnet has come loose and is stuck to the top (common problem), and if laser lights up. If your discs aren’t spinning (can’t hear them): Run DVD w/o cover, see if discs turn, try a “push start”. Mine didn’t. Spindle moves easily after I cleaned and relubed motor/spindle follwing these BAD instructions: youtube.com Those instructions are missing a critical step. Mark the 3 screws with a sharpie and note how many turns to tight before you dissasemble the spindle. They control the hight and tilt of the disc relative to the laser. If you end up not knowing the right height (like me), mark the screws anyway, then try different adjustments. Full tight is safe, but probably won’t work. Too loose will make the disc rub – don’t use your favorite game. Start with CDs – those are easier to read. I ended up around 1 turn loose from full tight on the two screws that have springs. Also, test with CDs first – those are easier to read first. Another
