cd-tray is stuck!

[furis]

My younger brothers have damaged the ps2 seriously.
When they were trying to play a backup with swap magic and slide tool they forgot to take the slide tool from right to the left (to lock the cd-tray). And they pushed the X button and nothing happened. Then they turned the ps2 off, and when i got home i realised that the cd-tray won't come out. Now the swap magic dvd disc is in the ps2. But when i push the tray button it comes out just some mm. And it is stuck so i can't use the slide tool to get it out more.
I hope that you awesome people out there can help me.
thanks

(maybe i have done some spelling problems,sorry for that inconviniance)

dismantle the ps2 and remove the top of the drive, take the disk out then unscrew the tray on the front left and move it forwards all the way out then rease,ble the drive and test it

im not trying to jack your thread, but i think i have a similar problem. the ps2 ejects correctly, but when u push eject to bring it back in, it stop about a centimeter from closing. if you push it in from there it works fine. i am wondering if this is the same problem, and if cleaning would do the trick?

@ tblock, check the underside of the tray cos it sounds like u have a piece of the track missing,hence why u have to manually push it in the last bit.

I managed to fix the ps2 tray. I opened the ps2 and the white sort of hook(was visibele when i took of the plastic shelter sort of thing over the dvd-tray/dvd-player,and have pulled de tray all out) wasnt all to the left. I pushed it back, reasembled it. and pushed the tray button. and it WORKED! thanks a bundle jenko. You are my savior!(i didnt dare to open the ps2 first ,but when i got the info of how much a "errorsearch" cost i made up my mind) i have also thought about to buy a mod-chip instead, this is all to messy for me if it happens again.

@tblock, what version of PS2 do you have? I have a CD/DVD tray that's good from a V4. Compatible for sure up to a v7. Not compatible for sure with a v10.

PM me if you're interested.
