[QUOTE="Rasa39, post: 10381205, member: 369983"] Might sound obvious, but did you change the motor controller back to the original after testing with the new laser sled? It could be that the original controller wasn't at fault if it only started reading dvd's after the sled was replaced. That being said if it's reading dvd's then I'd assume the new motor IC is working too. Replacing the motor controller fixed my drive, but mine never spun up properly and after multiple attempts would eventually spit out the unrecignised disc error, so it could be that the motor controller isn't the fault here. But if you don't trust that replacement motor controller, you can get a genuine one off certain models of the ps4 pro if you happen to have any of those, that's actually where I salvaged my replacement IC from, they also have the same laser too (mine was CUH-7216B). Maybe worth a shot replacing the ribbon cable connecting the disc drive to the ps5 motherboard. Just be sure to get the right one as the newer models have a smaller cable (which I accidentally ordered once before). Since blu-rays use more power than regular dvd's, if it won't run BD movies, like no blu-ray discs at all not just games, then it could be some sort of power related issue. Before replacing it though, if the cable looks fine, I'd check to see if you're getting both 12v and 5v into the disc drive with the current cable (check the connector on the ps5 board too). 12v should be constant whenever the ps5 is plugged into the wall, the 5v will only show once you turn on the console, just be careful with your probes ofc.
