I doubt that the disk drawer is the cause of this problem, more likely it's
either the laser diode going down or a problem with the sled. (I'm assuming
that you've cleaned the lens.) Either too much wear, or bad lubrication. The
first is hard to fix, unless there's a power adjustment trimpot in the
circuit, but if it's only a lack of or sticky lubricant on the sled rails,
re-lubricating could fix it. In the case of Sony Playstations, when the sled
rails are worn, turning the unit upside-down often helps. (No good in this
case)
