  • Help, please. Whenever I insert a disc in, it either wont load or it just freezes. And when its trying to load the disc, I hear this little clicking sound every 2-3 seconds. How do I fix it?

  • help please? i think the problem is what you were talking about at 1:05 =(

    when i opened up my blu-ray drive i realized that i forgot to take the game out, so the game just popped out and i didn't think much about it. however, when i put everything back together, i forgot to put the game back in and now theres a little tab that keeps any games from going in, and my ps3 recognizes that there is no game in there so the little tab has gotten stuck, please help

Sorry for being so long but I need HELP PLZ!!!!!¡!!!!!¡!!!!!

  • I think i busted my laser mech or a flat flex cable. I wanna get it repaired at E Starland (VA) but I don't know if they're good or not. Do you know if they're good with ps3 repairs?

    And how much does it cost for a ps3 laser mech? Should be less than $150 since thats what Sony charges. Ripoff...........

  • @Kilosquad1 I have exactly the problem as you I opened it up and couldn't see anything. It's really annoying me! I need help aswell

  • do u know how to fix the "serious complications" when you were talking about the arms because i took my ps3 apart and took a game out and forgot to put it back in

  • help

    my disc wont go in

  • thanks bro it workd just fine!

  • ok my ps3 is not reading any of my disks they are clan and fine and my ps3 makes a noise like its ejecting but nothing happens im getting so mad what do i do please help

  • @Kilosquad1 I have the same problem too, but you can call sony and ask them to get it repaired for free if you still have te 1yr warranty

  • @TheCalvinSean no my warranty ran out on christmas last year

  • My blu-ray eye defaulted to the middle of the disc instead of the outside because I turned it off by unplugging it by mistake one day and it stopped working for over a week. I took it apart with your instructional video here and set the default back to the outside and it worked. Coincidentally that was 10 minutes before SONY Online came back. I'm back to playing 27 hours a day, who has time for school or sleep...I"m on a mission. Lookup Mikejank 67 and fat_Joe_521

  • now i understand how ps3 eject Blue-Rays...

  • ooooooooooooooo

  • thanks dude! helped soooo much!!

  • nicholas cage plays ps3

  • Would a bad blue ray disc play ok but make the sound skip out sometimes? I just got it back from repairs. Help.

  • thank you very much this helped me :)

    

  • Whats the name of the cable of : BL2-001 1-871-577-12 (the Sensor)

  • My playstation turns on and everything works just fine but when i put the disk in it doesent read it, please help someone

  • @95korbin Dead laser. Gotta send it in or replace it yourself.

  • I opened up my blu ray drive and a small metal clip fell off when I opened it! Any idea where this goes? It wasn't forced off, it just fell!

  • someone help. i try to put the disk in but it doesnt take it and i have to force it in but then it doesnt spin or eject it

  • @Norocmorth do the fan test and it will come out turn off to red light ps3 then hold the ej button

  • This has happened me before and I sent it in for $150 guys I suggest putting a blu ray cleaning disc in and if it doesnt work try to reformat your system. If all else fails contact sony because I wouldnt risk takin my ps3 apart because if I do and fuck up theres about 200-300$ i just lost. If you send it to sony it gets refurbished so you know it will pretty much work and if your lucky they will mess up or something and get you a new ps3 :D

  • does it connect through ide or what?

  • Great help, thanks. fixed ylod and a messed up drive where previous owner had used a screwdriver to try and prise it open to get a disk out !! now its fixed, and to my amazement only 2 screws left over, "" lol, they must be spares !!""  thanks again.

  • dude i opened my bluray and i found aout that the disc does not spin, so i wonder, is it only the spindler or should i replace the whole laser unit, pleas answer mate, i can't find an answer nowhere

  • i had big problems with my ps3 not reading games after 3.41 update so i called sony and they said it would be 150 for them to repair cause i have no warranty. so i said fuck it and took it apart what worst can happen right? well turns out my bluray lens way dirty cause i somke so much around it all i did was use mt lcd tv scrren cleaner and guess waht it works just a tip to peple that are on there last legs with there ps3. i was so pissed consitering it was my 7th ps3

  • You know I always thought a blu-ray hardrive would be all shiny and blue, also filled with pretty computer chips...

  • CONSUMER WARNING!!!!!! Many Playstation 3 consoles made by Sony come from the factory with at least 1 serious defect. Error code 80010514. If your machine shows you this error code regardless your of warranty status Sony will charge you $150 to repair the problem. If you haven't already wasted your money then don't buy the PS3 console!! They say this is an uncommon error, funny how I know 5 people who own the PS3 and 3 of them have the 80010514 error.

  • My blueray lens is working but the disc willo not spin at all! Tracking works fine as well. Just will not spin?

  • ok i think my disk drive is broken it excepts the ps3 disk but it tries to read it but it seems like the ps3 doesnt spin the disk but the screen still shows it trying to read the disk i tried using a CD DR. lens cleaning disk thinking that was the problem and it didnt read that disk so im guessing the drive is broken or the eye is toast

  • @RigorMortis589 I,m actually having that exaCT problem  with my ps3 did you ever find a way to fix it? if so that i would appreciate it very much if youd share....i Just got the move and a couple days later it pooped out this sucks

  • @Tiggyiggyiggy well i called sony and they wanted alot of money just to give me a refurbished one so i went to my local game repair shop and they told me they couldnt fix it and i ended up buying a new one so unless youve got the money i would call sony or buy a new one sorry man

  • I always knew Nicholas Cage played PS3 :D

  • hey dude hopefully youll reply to this, my bluray drive will NOT even let me push a disc in wether its plugged in an turned on or just the bluray drive on its own, i hav found this problems with another bluray drive, but my ps3 only overheated its fine otherwise, and the other ps3 thats fucked is coz of the bluray drive, and my other mates one werks finebut hs ps3 is fucked so basically i was wondering if you knew why it wont even go inside

  • Hello.. I opened my ps3 to clean my lens... When I did.. I did it carefully and step by step.. But.. When I did I had a disc inside..not knowing it may have mattered I removed it and continued .. Opening and swabbing lens..... I re assembled it... And then attempted to try a game.. To find discs are bieng blocked from entering .. It's tough to see in drive slit.. Hope u can shed light on my issue before I re open.. Maybe the "serious complication".. Or in reverse,.. Please elaborate.

  • my ps3 will not take any disks or anything. I had something on my blu ray disk that got my blu ray stuck and when i opened it up and got it out, it stop letting me put anything in it.

  • can you use a blue ray dvd player to replace the disk drive for your ps3?

  • nice video. please help me though. Firstly is this the drive for the ps3 SLIM ? i opened my ps3 slim and tried to see what was wrong. it pretty much seems the same as what your has but i need to check that chip stuff. the situation was that my stupid brother slapped my ps3 because he was Pmsing and i dont know if its the parts that are broken or if something is not in the right place...

  • when i put in the disc, it takes it in, but the disc doesnt sit on that metal spinner, so the disc isnt being read, i need help, please reply asap. thanks

  • there is a white plastic thing blocking my disc from entering how do i fix it 

  • THX YOUR VIDEO REALLY HELPED I FIXED MY PS 3

  • Nicholas Cage?

  • ok thanks xROBERTxDAVISx but i think im goiin to just buy a new ps3..or get 1 for christmas..

  • my ps3 doesnt read any kind of disc,

  • ok i hvae a question....what if it dosnt even take my disk? but i can push it in but still cant read ..? im lost...i took my whole ps3 apart put back together bcuz it wasnt working proberly and now it wont even take my disk!

  • @iLLuZioNsiiNz get contents insurance and claim it on there

  • your shit didnt help 1 bit!!!

  • when i try to put in a disc in my ps3 it will not take it when i press the arrow to check if there is no discs in it doesnt make a double beep just like a little whirr and stops... sumone help

  • @Marinemike1984 Do you know how to fix it if it doesn't even read the disc? It just sits there and says it's loading

  • yo say wen i eject a disk and it barely pushes it out enough to grab....what can be the problem and solutuion?

  • @INS14466 it means that its finding resistance with trying to come out of your player. Now for a solution, thats hard to say as you can see there are a lot of moving parts. I recommend taking it apart and seeing if it matches up to mine in the video.

  • @MarineMike1984 thank you my brother

  • @MarineMike1984 hey what tools do i need to open my diskdrive??

  • @MarineMike1984 heres the link to my video maybe u could point me in the right direction

  • ya see that

  • Thanks for this helpful video. Totally fixed my problem I went in and checked everything you mentioned and now I'm back up and running! Thanks!

  • @oadriankeith no problem!

  • @MarineMike1984 Great vid man. But what if I have to force the sliders?(the ones that will tell your drive if there's a disc in it or not)

    Because I am one step closer to fixing mine completely, and I'm fearing that a spring or something is missing that's making it stuck....

  • I just put a new (used) laser mech into my drive. when I turned on my ps3 and inserted a game, it sounded like it was waggeling all around and I wasnt able to eject the game. so I had to open the drive again to get the disc out. do u know what it could be? im trying to put the drivei nside the ps3 for another time

    and this time im only gonna use a raw cd. but some advise would be perfect

  • Great, thanks for the help.

  • i can figure out a other thing

    your an dumbass

    you can also test the fucking thing

    (yea you didnt thing of that didntya?)

  • @overhool If you're calling people idiots, at least learn to spell and learn some grammar first. ;)

  • everything worked great. i replaced my laser but then the disc wont go in. im assuming i messed something up while assembling and de-assembling my ps3. uhm the grey parts came off along with the spring. im not too sure what to do, how do you put them back on properly?

  • Great explanation.

  • hahaha OMFG its Nicholas Cage!

  • Hi can you tell me the real name of the plastic gray parts that cover the disc loaders. You call them the gray guys. I need to know where to buy them so that I can finish fixing my drive. Thank You

  • I've got a question for you. At the start when you talk about not pushing the disc all the way in - that taking it apart with the disc in would cause serious complications? I had a disc stuck in it due to a removed sticker from the previous owner. I had to take it a part, a small 1/3 inch spring fell out and I was unable to locate where it came from. It's just a plain spring, no hooks like the others.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA "......you see, it wont because I put it right here, oh no, it won't oh it wont close now until you get it back under there"

    What's the point in showing us how a blu-ray disk player should work by demonstrating on a broken one you douche bag?

  • ok, so all of that works fin. It goes in and everything. But when it gets in there it doesn't spin. What do I do? Or should I just get a new disk drive?

  • how you got to that part in the beginning u fag

  • really does sounds like nicholas cage...

  • You see that arm move? That's the... GREY ARM.

  • thank you nicholas Cage lol

  • lol iroquois2688 is right u do sound him! from national treasure

  • Get your PS3 up and running again. Fix any error it may have, from error codes to red and black screens and YLOD, right from home! Don't waste time and money shipping it to Sony - youtube.com/watch?v=W6IqzZV3c0­k

  • i have the same result as letmeanpeople , my blue ray drive seems slightly different from the one in the video (80gb fatty) , no disc sensor as far as i can see, and the front loading arms only gear on one side, no screw either, just a snap tab holding that together, drive reads fine if i manually load them with top off, but it thinks it has a disc inside even if i put it together in the unloaded position , but all the videos i see so far point to the disc sensor with mine doesnt have

  • wtf spider man 3

  • my ps3 slim when i play games it makes kind of a clicking noise i hear in the disc drive section, its really quiet i have to put my ear next to it, is it normal? only in the beginning like the first 15 mins of gameplay then it kinda stops. is it the disc drive just working? it doesnt leave scaratches or anything on the disc

  • this is a pretty lame vid, i mean wtf?

  • Mine iss that it can't read downloaded games and disc games everytime I click on one of them theres this big black screen. A friend told me it could be the blu ray plz help me

  • @stardude289 i have the same problem....

  • no shit its a gray i thought it was a fucking unicorn

  • help me out please dude, i took my drive apart to fix the laser thsats fine but discs wont go inu know the mechanism u said shud be smth it jams, when u take it off it moves fine whats jamming it is the 2 little grey plastic things that lie under it the ones that can move 90 degrees to the left but not right, these things arejamming the levers when i look at urs they are under the levers (the things that move when the cd goes in and out)

  • Dude you should go into voice acting, you sound like Nicholas Cage!

  • @Iroquois2688 agree lol

  • @Iroquois2688 OMFG HE DOES LOL

  • @Iroquois2688

    It is him. This is what he does in his spare time :P

  • @Iroquois2688 Nnnaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!

  • @Iroquois2688 HAHA OMG i thought the EXACT SAME THING!

  • @Iroquois2688 lmao he does sound like Nicolas cage

  • You are awesome man! I fixed my drive thanks to this vid.

  • Could anyone help, after doing this and putting it back together whenever i try to put a disk in it wont go in! like something blocking the bit where you put the disk in :S

    also if you touch the disk eject button it makes a wierd sound...anyone help?

  • @PeteSCFC1 is it what he shows at 0:40 ? That would explain the blocking. 

  • My playstation 3 does not show that there is a CD in but when tring to insert a disk (game/Movie) it only goes half way and spins... does this mean that I only need to clean the Lens? Please Help, I no longer have warranty, it was a Christmas Gift from Mom and Dad.....

  • i cant put my disc in it cxan you help me?

  • i actually have a problem ejecting my cd how should i fix it if you know plz help

  • if you messed around with the tray and gears have fallen out you have to put the gears back in theres 3 gears on each arm once placed inside try turning them so they all move, next theres 2 metal arms underneath try opening them very slightly then connecting those to the thing with the gears inside

  • @drakken885 if you did it right the gears should be in  place and the arms move in and out properly same as 1:58, in this video hoped that helped someone

  • hello there please help me the grey arm you talk about on 1:00 it came loose on my drive and the spring came out and i cant figure out how to put the spring that goes in that arm back on its place can you please help

  • @misterchango theres 3 springs 1 in the begining of video attached to the white thing on the right and 1 spring on each one of those lil grey things on the bottom

  • @drakken885 to attach the 2 small springs in the bottem if they have fallen off, put the spring around the small cylinder you insert the grey thing on, the longer part of the spring will look a little bent it should go around the left on left side and right on the right side

  • @drakken885 if you have connected them properly you will notice if you push slightly and release they will fly back into place on there own,

    be very careful with those cuz if you snap any plastic or anything its scrapped

  • ok so i understand all of this except im having a problem with the panel with the 2 arms on it the grey flaps are all good theres a little wire on both those are good im just having a problem centreing that hole panel so the arms move free once i put the 1 tiny screw back in any tips on how to centre that panel so its screwed in and the arms move thx

  • I have the 410. I changed lasers but now the whole damn thing does not work. I think I screwed up the gears. Please help

  • i did everything i could i even took apart the ps3 and it still does the same. i play COD MW 2 and after a game or two it freezes. the only way i can turn it off is from the back. i cleaned the lens i cleaned the dust out and it still dosent work. i can play demos though an music an internet but i cant play a real game anymore. what do i do?????

  • what is that white thing that is in the centre where you put the disc in

    because its locked there

  • @illsparku12 that is the magnet is should just come right off, you probbally have to re align the drive cuz it thinks theres a disk inside look up the loader alignment video
