Hi I recently got given a slim from a friend with a broken disc drive and I figured I’d have ago at fixing it so I can have a spare system. I found the fuse had blown on the motherboard which I fixed and now the disc drive works but it’s making a strange noise when taking or ejecting discs. I’ve tried resetting the rollers, but it still makes the noise. Anyone have any idea what could be causing it? Here’s a video of what happens when I insert a disc. https://youtube.com/shorts/0g8RTyWkHnQ?f…
clean the rollers and put the case back on just detach the rollers and use isopropyl alcohol if that doesn’t work i think u need a new pair of disk rollers
Maybe you missed a screw somewhere, it sounds like upper and lower mechanism not fully engaging with each other and the gears are slipping.
