I ****ed up so big time, i have the worst luck. My disc tray on my console jams.. So i decided to pull it out(after tapping it a million times) shut off the power and let it stay open. I tried to clean the belt and gears then it SLAMMED shut smh. Oh man after that it took two hours to pry it out without breaking anything.. Then i tried 3 more hours to get the belt situated again!. (Holding a phone flashlight + an xbox console and using mediorcore tools to try and get into place while you have like 1 inch of room to work with was frustrating. I ****ed it all up. Now i have to wait longer, spend more money(My mw2 special edition xbox is flashed & i bought a drive + verbatims + adapters.
Damn, I think i am going to buy one of those tool kits to open the xbox on the back, but is their an alternative? because i can easily just run to the store and buy two torx screwdrivers.. Which ones do i need however? I know a Torx 10 and a Torx 8, some people mention a flathead but they come in different sizes. Any ideas?
I am frustrated because i don't want to damage this console & spent so much money already... i still have the ring spool saved. i actually got it in without opening the tray but somehow it slipped off.
The only problem is the drive and belt & i guess cleaning everything else works perfect. What exact tools do i use some people tell me different kits and torx and flatheads? What is the difficulty process for this? I am not a xbox guy, more of a playstation guy. But i have opened consoles before. Do i have to take apart the whole thing? Also if someone could point me in the right direction or tutorial that would be nice... I do not feel like waiting to get the opening tool when i can go to the hardware store. Can someone link me to the proper set of tools that have prime? maybe i can wait two more days.. Pics below...
IS THERE ANY POSSIBLE WAY TO GET THE RUBBER BAND BACK IN WITHOUT OPENING THE CONSOLE, IT WOULD SAVE ME COPIOUS TROUBLE! HOWEVER, I DO NOT WANT TO FORCE THE TRAY OUT. I HAD TO USE A KNIFE & 4 PAPERCLIPS AND DIFFERENT TOOLS!
Thanks :/
