Yeah, I know, this is like talking about VW beetle in 2019. That aside, I need help.
My ps3 slim doesn't read any discs. When I insert my disc, absolutely nothing happens on the screen and no error messages. The blue light in front of the disc slot remains on and I can feel the console vibrating nonstop till I press eject.
Note; it accepts and ejects the disc smoothly.
Please, engineers in the house, I need help on the likely cause, so I don't go changing things that are not spoilt.
Thanks in advance.

NOTE Before anyone comes here to call me stupid for not hacking my ps3, this is not about finding a way out. It is about FIXING it.
I already hacked my ps3 and I'm playing the games I have in it. But I just don't like having things that are crippled and walking with support. I love fixing things. As long as there's a solution to making it work again, I'll find it.
Also, I know I'm probably gonna spend more than the cost of a new one, but the new one won't give me the happiness of "I fixed it". It is a joy that only engineers, technicians and ppl still love fixing things will understand.
So if you enjoy fixing things or have similar problem, follow me on this quest.

That's a very lovely offer, but no thanks. I never asked for a buyer. All I want is to fix it.

Sir, I never told you my console is not hacked. If you are ok avoiding your problems instead of solving them, then that is you. I prefer fixing my problems. Thanks for the advice though.

You never disclosed it was hacked either, some problems aren't problems when there are options to get it done easier.... Get a new mechanism and lens since you insist, grab the lvdiag file, run it in fs mode..... ARE YOU ENTERTAINED grin

Now you are speaking my language.
Essentially, what you are saying is my drive is dead and needs to be changed. Then the new drive has to be remarried (after divorce grin) to the console. Did I get it right?

I was really hoping it was the ribbon cable connecting the drive to the motherboard. Cos it looks sick.

OK, I just noticed the clock symbol circles when a disc is inserted. It does that a couple of times and then stops. But no error messages.

I already bought one, and I'm not happy with it and the seller. It is the reason why this post is up.

So I ordered for a new ribbon cable and it just arrived.
I inserted it and nothing changed. The clock symbol still does its thing when a disc is inserted.

Failed attempt! cry

So I was able to tear the Blu-ray drive apart. I ran a disc in it while it's open. I noticed the red light and the blue light come on. Red light when I put a DVD disc, and blue light when I put a Blu-ray disc. This means the system is working right, but not just getting any info. I cleaned the lenses again and it didn't help.
I'm thinking of getting a new lens, since I can't change the whole Blu-ray drive without the marriage and wedding stuff undecided

So I ordered a new lens and I'm still expecting it. I hope it solves my problem.
