Wont open or close keeps saying blocked I have the same problem - mine is a Philips DVDR3450H. The drawer won't open and it says "blocked". Can't see a manual eject button anywhere. Can anyone help?
I had the same problem with a comparable device. It turned out that the drive belt that operates the ejection mechanism wears out or breaks.
To get at it you need to do the following:
1. remove device cover
2. remove the identification cover on the front of the DVD tray. This may be tricky if you can't open the tray. You need to find a way, because otherwise you can't remove the DVD unit, at least not on my unit.
3. remove the DVD unit by detaching the cables and removing four screws.
4. remove the two top screws on the DVD unit
5. remove the front top cover of the DVD unit by pushing the two tabs on the top ofDrawer won't open. Says "blocked". - 97937cf.jpgnear the front.
6. Now remove the tray, by pulling it out as far as it goes and then pressingDrawer won't open. Says "blocked". - a848231.jpgn either side of the tray. These tabs look like this:
7. Now you get at theDrawer won't open. Says "blocked". - 10ced45.jpg. Originally it was black; I replaced it (temporarily) with a red one in the picture below:
8. Now put everything back together.
Bedankt voor deze simpele, maar doeltreffende oplossing. Een snaartje uit een oude DVD speler/brander gehaald en deze verwisseld met de uitgerekte/versleten snaar.
Hello Dan, thank you for your post!
I understand that the bottom drawer of your Electrolux range will not close and it partially open. It is possible that your rail or drawer may be damaged or blocked. I would recommend pulling the drawer out to inspect it. If you pull the drawer out there should be tabs on the side to unlock in order to remove the drawer fully. The model number you have provided is invalid you can locate the model number on the serial tag. The serial tag can be found on the frame of the drawer. I look forward to assisting you. -Matt
