PS3 games stuck in the disc drive

Solved

Hello,
I have a problem with my PS3, everyone thinks it has a Yellow of Death.
There's a game stuck inside, and when I press the button to eject the game, it makes a "tididi" sound. We tried to take the console apart to retrieve it, but at one point when we get to the disc drive, we get stuck.

Is there any way to fix this problem ourselves and recover the game without paying €220?

    Hi

    Try this:

    - Turn off the PS3 from the back with the O/I button
    - Keep your finger on Eject
    - Turn on the PS3 from the back while your finger is still on Eject. Let it make a very loud sound (like a reactor) for 30 seconds, and during that time, the disc may eject (however, do not do this too often because it eventually damages the console).

    See you!

      And what if all of this doesn't work? What I mean is: my PS3 suddenly shut down in the middle of the game, it had barely been on for 5 minutes and then boom, nothing at all, like a power cut. No blinking red or yellow light.
      Just green with beeping on reboot that lasts 3 seconds and then nothing. I've tried your system with the power supply to recover the disc but nothing works even when trying to cool the Play, etc., etc... HEEEEELLLLLPPP

      lol that won't happen......

      Also, if you were a bit more careful, the topic is from 2011, so I doubt you'll get a response =)

      Good evening zucchini,

      Even if your console works, it won't be functioning in 3/4 years because of this technique.

    I managed to take it apart; there are screws under the rubber feet and under the label. After that, you can access the reader to retrieve the game.

      Mimi,

      You shouldn't have disassembled your console. It's up to the technician to do that for these new parts, not you. Imagine if the hard drive gets damaged? Think about it.

      "Imagine if the hard drive takes a hit?"

      It's really nonsense as a comment to push people to pay for professional services.
