    I have a Phillips DVD that has had very little use lately ( I suspect have many others have suffered the same fate due to all the available download mediums available these days) I was aware that the drawer was 'iffy', but today it had completely given up the ghost. I trawled UA-cam and others avenues on line with no real success, to try and solve this problem. The main problem was that I couldn't get to the drawer belt drive or open the drawer. I even started looking on ebay for a replacement. I was just about to give up when I came upon your site. I opened the drive by using your method, via the underside. This exposed the band which seemed all right, but was loose. I replaced it with a rubber band and 'voila', problem solved. I even realised why it had happened, when reading yours comments! The dvd has sat under a 'hot' sky mini box. So a big thank you in succeeding where many others had failed. Kindest Regards, John Bevan

      I've been able to hook these belts out with a hook shaped dental pick in both computer optical drives and the CD player. Sourcing a replacement belt is a bit more difficult. It's a 1" square belt, and shouldn't cost more than a dime. Many sellers gouge you badly for this part.

    Glad I saw your short video I have a old Cambridge universal DVD player and my drawer wont open. i took the hood off and just like yours I cant see the belt or gear so maybe it has that slot on the bottom to slide like you did. I was thinking of taking it in for repair but you know how that is it needs this and that and there you go more money to spend. I had this player repaired oh back in 2011.That time it needed a power supply it wouldn't turn on .So I always turn the switch off no more in standby. I bought it back in 2006 I don't have the heart to throw it out. Well ill see what to do it supports DVD audio and SACD

    I was able to get my Yamaha CD-S300 drawer open by gently tugging on the tray with a dental pick. It still doesn't work, but I got it open. I've been able to play the first track, then it pretty much fails. I've ordered a new drive and a belt for it, should get the job done.

    This is click bait since the title does not even come close to doing what the title states. It is like a video saying how to change your brakes and just showing how to remove a tire. The author should rethink youtube channel if they have to resort to these tactics
