How to Fix a Sticking Xbox or Xbox 360 DVD Drive

5 years ago

Time to tackle an annoying issue plaguing many original Xbox and Xbox 360 consoles! This tutorial will walk you through the process of replacing your DVD drive's belt which will resolve the dreaded sticking drive tray issue. No more needing to hit the top of your console or keeping a disc in the drive at all times in order to get the tray open! Other tutorials might recommend boiling or cleaning the existing DVD drive belt. While as that can still provide a resolution, it is only temporary and the sticking drive problem will return again shortly. Thankfully DVD drive belts are cheap enough to the point where I recommend skipping past the boiling/cleaning stage and simply replace the belt to alleviate your issue for years to come.
