My console wont eject due to a bad eject button on the mother board i have tried soldering a new one on with no luck, i was wondering if any one has a tut on wiring a momentary switch to open and close the dvd try.

I have done this many times on pc dvd drives by following the wires on the eject button and just wiring a new switch, worked very well.

After searching high and low for 2 weeks straight, i have not found a single bit of information on this subject maybe some one can help me out if this is even do able. Thanks!!

Worst case scenario you will be able to eject the tray through the dashboard after August 11.

I hope this isn't another ban wave though, my unmodded xbox is broken and my other two are modded, if it is a ban wave then I won't be on live for a while.

i have about 6 consoles all modded, im not a huge live fan but i like to keep up to date with game updates etc it might be time for me to remove the wireless adapter from the back of my 360 for a bit, at least till we find out if it is another ban wave.

Dont think that would help, you would just get banned when you eventually log back in.
