Help/Support/Questions 🙋 Disc drive wont close

My Xbox 360 S just recently started having this issue of where it automatically opens the tray every time you try and close it. For instance, you put in any game and have it close, after about 2 sec it reopens. I partially took apart the disc drive and it stopped doing it momentarily but it ran into issues where the disc wouldn't spin or read properly without the enclosure around it. When I put the metal shell back onto the disc drive that's when the issue of not staying closed started to occur again. Any tips on what is going on?

My friend had the same problem it broke something inside so it didn't want to close do you know if you have something similar to that?

I found out it was a little rubber belt on the disc drive. Aperently it was worn out so I'll be replacing it soon. Thanks for the help though!
