My Sony VAIO CDRW/DVD is working and although I can hear the head transport moving when I press the eject button the tray will not open unless I use the
 pin hole.  (This is not a burner software lock issue)  The mechanical latch
 is operated by a miniature d.c. motor and on opening up the drive if I turn
 the motor "by hand" the tray latch does move.   However I cannot tell if the
 motor is turning once everything is reassembled.   To test I'm going to
 apply a battery voltage to it but does anyone know the typical voltage of
 such a motor?
