  • I have a question about resetting the side mechanism that lifts the tray up and down. I've reset my black brackets as showed in 6:40 so that no teeth are engaged, from this point if you move one side the other should move as well. Mine seems a bit sticky and if i move the right bracket, the left with the teeth does not move along with it. At this point, with everything assembled, it will accept and eject the disk which it didn't before but doesn't seem to start the spin and reading part.

  • @mtheaded77 the disk won't spin if the lens is faulty. You mechanism was probably thrown out by the lens failure.

  • Glad to be of service! Happy gaming

  • Good video. You explained the process a lot better than most.

  • We were playing the game just fine, it was jolted a bit a few weeks back but we never removed the disk, it played fine until we tried to switch games, then it got stuck trying to eject. We have the fat original 80g type of ps3. I'll try to post a video response later tonight if your interested in helping troubleshoot
