    • If present, remove the pieces of tape securing the cables to the body of the Blu-ray drive.

    What does the white and black cable?

    • Use the flat end of a spudger or your fingernail to flip up the retaining flap on the Blu-ray ribbon cable socket.

    • Be sure you are prying up on the movable retaining flap, not the socket itself.

    • Pull the Blu-ray ribbon cable straight up and out of its socket.

    • Lift the Blu-ray drive slightly by its right edge to dislodge the control board from its housing.

    • Remove the Blu-ray drive from the PS3.

    • After you reinstall the Blu-ray drive, be sure the control board is firmly seated in the lower case before proceeding.

    • If replacing the Blu-ray drive with a new drive, swap the circuit board from your old drive into the new drive.

    my cd drive has 3 cables, two by the fan, one right under, i believe i damaged the one on the bottom because it is very difficult to put back in hence the repair. But the photos here dont show the 3 cables, not sure if you have one for this model?

    I popped a friends apart to see if I could put in mine, which won't stay online for more than 1minute 10 seconds. Plays DVDs fine. Anyway, his had 3 cables and mine only has 1. How do I know which DVD player to order?

    Completely different drive in my slim. 3 ribbon cables on the back that pull straight up out of their connectors. And one wide ribbon hidden underneath and almost impossible to get to. After disconnecting the 3 visible cables lift the back of the drive about 3/4" and use a plastic spudger to release the clip on the cable before lifting off the drive. Reinstalling is a nightmare. The cable has a black line to indicate how far to insert into the connector. Get it in there somehow then use the spudger to push the clip down. If it's not level release it and try again and again and again until you get it right. Sony must use some awfully small fingers when they build these ;-)

    I had the same issue with the ribon feeding beneath the blu ray player. This video provided a much better solution. It requires dissassembling the blu ray: https://youtu.be/Upy2bTev3M0

    My disk drive needs to be replaced. Your step by step is straight forward and are very helpful. At the end you mentioned “If replacing the Blu-ray drive with a new drive, swap the circuit board from your old drive into the new drive”.

    Which circuit board? Can your please add a picture of the circuit board you are referring to?

    Henry -

    @hh168 There’s now a link in the text of that step, which will take you to a video with detailed instructions for swapping the board.

    Jeff Suovanen -

    First I replaced the drive and it would load a disc and see that it was either a game and which game or a BluRay or DVD and which, but I got error codes when trying to play them.

    The codes seemed to be tamper coding, and swapping the board seemed to be a good idea.

    It went smoothly, but now discs will not feed into the drive.

    Please help.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

How can this be easy, but the Blu-Ray drive be considered Moderate? You need to complete the Blu-Ray drive removal prior to replacing the laser lens, which means this is at best a Moderate task.

Ben Kevan -

This is not lens replacement, this is drive replacement. Is there a separate guide for lens replacement?

cmchallam -

Shows how to do the laser assembly in the video but not how to reinstall it in the drive. Lazy guide. Just buy a whole new drive if you are following this guide.
