Default DVD drawer will not open

Toshiba SD6100 DVD Player

With cover off or not.
No DVD is in drawer. Can see inside.
Hit OpenClose front panel button and drawer moves slightly forward then
back. Looks like an attempt to open but does not.
Display shows Open the Load.

Occasionally the motor turns a little probably looking to see if DVD is
loaded. No DVD in drawer.

This unit has very little play time on it, maybe 15 DVD plays but is at
least 6 years old.

Is this fix-able or now electronic waste?

Suggestions please.

Try opening it by hand after using the un-bent paper-clip through the
hole, then keep hitting the open/close button until it decides to behave?

(Of course if something is broken rather than just sticky, this won't
work; then it's junk!)
