How do i fix the tray/drawer mechanism on my Pioneer 535 dvd player?

Sometimes when i press eject and the drawer/tray opens, it closes again straight away on its own.

can this be fixed?

i think you check your switch EJECT.. in case the switch bounces..If you are converasnt with the servicing.. go ahead open up the front display panel and check the contact with the ohm meter as you depress ( may be it get stuck in ON position???) if thats the problems desolder it and fix it with a new one..if this switch is Ok check for the leaf switch near the mechanism tray may be its stuck too..one of the above two may be your solutions...!

This is usualy due to the little switch that tells the drawer when it is fully open being dirty open the unit look for the switch and inspect it in action you can do this manualy if it seems to be conecting ok just clean the contacts with some fine emmery
