Toothpick broke off in manual eject Xbox one

Hey there!

OH NO!! Sorry to hear you have broken a toothpick in the console. As stated within the support article for

Manually Ejecting a Disc on the Xbox One, this should have been done with a large paperclip, this is to avoid issues like this from happening. Unfortunately we do not know if this would be a Fire Hazard. There should not be any components in that area that
would overheat to the point that it would catch the toothpick on fire but we can never rule out the possibility.

I would advise that you check to see if this console is still within warranty. Go through the

Device Support website to register your console and check on the warranty. If within warranty then set up a repair order for the console so that you can get this taken care of.

You can always
Contact Xbox Support if you require further assistance in setting up the order.

I hope this helps.

Even if the console is not under warranty you can still have it worked on, however, you would have to pay a deductible.

I really wouldn't suggest you poke anything into the disc slot, should you cause any damage doing that you may find yourself being asked why you broke the console and want a replacement.

It could be the disc is jammed in to tightly to be released manually or you're not quite hitting the sweet spot to get the disc to eject, could you try the paperclip method again.

This is how you manually eject the disc.

In addition. With the system off, I press the eject button and the system powers on but makes no attempt to eject. Meaning... Power and data connections both working. Not a mechanical failure, gears still work to manually eject. This is failed firmware in
the drive. On top of that, following instructions on Xbox web site to manually eject, not a single one of the locations listed for the hole, match my drive.
