Drive opens and try to spin disk at the same time
Video of the open drive doing its thing: https://youtu.be/rStzYprqoNk
I have this problem where the drive opens as soon as I turn on the xbox, but it still tries to spin the disk at the same time, and the tray never goes back in.
From my testing I have deduced that the part that spins the disk never lifts up, I can manually push it up and place a disk in the drive. After doing this the disk starts to spin while turning on, but then the drive still ejects and the disk starts to scratch.
If I remove the drive belt and place a disk in the drive it spinns up and stays in since it cant be ejected, the laser pops up some milimeters but never moves around like its trying to read the disk, and I still just end up at the dashboard.
Anyone got any clues to what might be wrong?

Something might be triggering the switch that tells the console the tray is closed and to check for disk
But pressing the close button makes the disk motor spin up and after a while the flashing green light turns steady, that tells me the signal for closing the tray is at least sent.
What switch specifically do u mean?
