How to Fix Can't Eject Disc if Button is Broken & App is Deleted on PS5 (Fast Method)
7To address the issue of not being able to eject a disc from your PS5 when the eject button is broken and the game app has been deleted, here are some steps you can follow, based on available troubleshooting guides:
Manual Ejection Method:
Shut Down the Console: Press and hold the power button for three seconds to turn off your PS5 completely. Disconnect all cables.
Remove the Base and Cover: Place the console on a flat surface with the PS logo facedown and the disc slot on your left side. Remove the base and gently pull up the cover from the top corners until it comes off.
Access the Disc Drive: Look for the disc drive, which should have black rings. There might be a black plastic film covering one screw; either remove this film or push through it with your screwdriver.
Eject the Disc: Using a #1 Phillips or cross-hatch screwdriver, turn the screw clockwise. This will manually push the disc out. Be gentle and ensure you do not force the disc out.
Using the System Menu (if the game title still appears in the menu):
Even if you've deleted the app, if the disc is still recognized by the system, you might be able to eject it through the UI:
Restart the PS5: Sometimes, restarting can help the system recognize the disc again.
Navigate to Home Screen: Use your controller to go to the home screen. If the game icon is still present, highlight it.
Eject Option: Press the Options button on your controller, and if the "Eject Disc" option appears, select it to eject the disc.
Professional Repair:
If the above methods do not work, the issue might be with the disc drive itself. In this case:
Contact PlayStation Support: They can guide you if your console is under warranty or suggest repair options if it's not.
Sony's PlayStation Fix & Replace: This service can handle console issues, including disc drive problems.
Preventive Measures for Future:
Keep your console software updated as firmware issues can cause disc-related problems.
Avoid inserting discs that are dirty or damaged, and clean any disc if needed before insertion.
