My Junkyard

Well, after complaining about the support of the Playstation 3 (see my previous posts) I did not rest

As you know my PS3 was unable to read disks no matter what I tried… So with the warranty already gone and Sony not willing to help I decided to try and fix my playstation 3.

The movielink below shows the issue I had.

This is the problem I had

Since my warranty was gone and the PS3 being pretty useless without it I tried to fix it. I opened the case and took out the BD drive. Please click the link below to see how to do that (pretty simple).

How to get to the drive

Ones you have the disk you can clean the small lens very carefully with some alcohol and soft cloth. Be carefull not to scratch the lens. After this procedure mine was working fine again.

If you for whatever reason don’t want to try this please see the video below. This might be a more suitable fix for your PS3 then!

Hopefully this little post helps you if you have similar problems…. Let me know if it did!
