I have been attempting to get into laserdisc after wanting to own a player for many years, but my attempts so far to obtain a working first player have not been going well. My initial player, a CLD-D505, has been giving me numerous error messages that seem like it would need a professional to fix, the biggest indicator of a problem being the disc tray refusing to open most of the time, something I understand tends to happen with this model.
I decided to try again and purchased a different player, a CLD-1070, which has a different problem. Whenever I close the tray with a disc inserted, it opens again after about ten seconds. The tray was rather dusty, so I think it may be the same for the rest of the player and maybe the laser is covered and unable to read anything, causing the issue. It's also making a sound that indicates something could be preventing another component from working properly.
Is this a normal issue for this unit? Am I anywhere close to right about either hypothesis, and either way is this something that can be easily fixed, or at least with a good cleaning?

i had a similar issue with the 1987 PIONEER LD-838D i had back in the mid-2000's; the tray would expel all the way out, but then immediately begin the retraction cycle.
today, i could probably have fixed the issue in minutes, but back then, i hadn't a clue what was wrong or how to go about remedying it.
all water under the bridge in any case, as i replaced that 838D with my CLD-3030 around 2007.
first thing i'd check is cleaning/relubing the tray's gear/trackwork, and, perhaps also belt replacement, if necessary...
