I suggest spray cleaning insides, sensor switches.  NO DUST/DIRT.  If this fails it's possible the drive is out of alignment.   All drives are fixable.  We fix these drives and bring many back to life!   Other than that, no specific tips, just be very patient and the more you do it (like us) the more experienced you get.   If interested in our repair service pm.

@Matt_H

Even if you clean them (sensor switches, read/write head mechanism), you may still need to align the drive.  And with some, circuitry may also fail.
