Nice video! Wondering if you can help me to diagnose my problem? My ps3
plays dvd and bluray movies just fine with no problems, but when it comes
to the games some games it plays fine, but some games i have audio problems
and menu freeze problems, for example on uncharted 3 the background music
keeps cutting in and out about every 2 or 3 secs. and when they go into the
movie cut scenes the sound keeps cutting in and out as well, same thing
with brand new game The last of us.
Plus the menu keeps freezing up on farcry 3 and same audio issues but game
play is fine. I've taken ps3 apart and cleaned the dust out of real good
and took a q-tip dipped in alcohol and cleaned both lenses, but still same
problem, would this be a lens issue? or could it be something else? and yes
all of those games work fine on other ps3 in case your wondering if it's
disc. Any help or advice you can come up with would be greatly appreciated
Thank You.
Thanks @GameConsoleRepairs for your tutorial, everything's working fine !
My PS3 250 GB model: CECH-2004B it looks exactly as this on the video
(bought in Europe).
I ordered PS3 lens module on ebay.com 'KES-450A' from a guy called
'best-price-2014' ~$19 (US Dollars)
After 5 years of intense use, my PS3 read only CDs and DVDs. Now it's
finally fixed and I can enjoy Blu Ray games and movies!
I put thr laser deck and put every thing back in right way i know this
because i madr sure before i closed it up and it still does not work the
disc spins at one speed and never changes. When i first put the disc in it
trys to read it and then gives up. The laser is a direct replacement so i
know thats not the problem do you have any other ideas as to why this might
be happening thanks.
I just wanted to say how much your video has been usefull. Clear, excellent
quality, this is the one I used to replace my defective lens by a new one.
17 € and a Ps3 that's running again ! Thanks to your job, I saved a lot of
money. So many people who have the same problem aren't aware of this
solution, and lose their pants purchasing a new one... Merci infiniment !
Thank you very much for the tutorial!
I got my ps3 working again. I wanted to buy just the laser module rather
than the laser and tray because that costed more money (and right now im
trying to save money) but i didnt think i would find a tutorial for this
procedure. Luckly I found your video and it was really informative. Thanks
again!
Awesome tutorial! Props to you for doing this! My 120gb ps3 recently
displayed the symptoms you mentioned of a failing lens...but does this also
include not being able to load any of my downloaded PSN games? When I try
running any of them, all I get is the same black screen like when I load
any of my Bluray disc games. :\
this was clear n very good on detail n info. my lens gone bad and tried to
clean it but now i know it must b replace. useing this video will save me
alot of time and money and build the know how n my mind to do so it anyone
i know need get thiers fixed. GOOD JOB more ppl need to come to this video
First of all, sorry about my english, could have some errors, but I need to
say thank you for this video teaching all the steps to change the PS3 lens,
I just made it in my console and everything was OK and it's working really
well now. Thank you very much, this was the best video teaching this.
GameConsleRepairs: Great video, although I am having an issue like
GodiZBack I just replaced the laser no problem. It is not pulling in any
discs now. The laser is sitting on the track fine, It was working prior to
the laser replacement. What could it be? Incorrect laser model?
@xperiaplayuk ideally you would want to open your PS3 and then match the
drive with our drives in our online store. There are 3 types of Blu-Ray
Drives. Simply go to GC-REPAIRS then PS3 (SLIM) and then Repair Parts and
Tools. All the drives are listed there.
Hey can you watch my video, i replaced the laser in my ps3 n after i put it
back together i had a whole new problem. my ps3 thinks theres a disc inside
when there isnt. please check the video out and provide some help or
insight as to why this is happening.
GameConsoleRepairs i have a question. does the lens have to be compatible
with the hard drive? i recently switched my 120 gb hard drive to a 500 gb
because the old one was corrupted. does the lens have to be compatible with
the new hard drive?
@madmax2069 Yes you can press X to launch the game. I dont know i pressed
Triangle as it gives few more options. I was under the impression that i
created the most complete video LOL. however there is always something....
LOL.. good point thou :P
I watched many videos about lens replacement, but I found this video very
detailed and it really helped me a lot. Also my CECH-2001A's interior is
exactly like this and I was able to repair it in half an hour with this
video. Thanks again...
I have a 250 gb slim, i bought a laser that would be called KES 450A but i
got a KEM 450 DAA, are they the same and what should i do? If i replace my
current laser with this KEM 450 DAA, will it break? HELP.
I ordered the lens you told me about from your website and its been almost
2 weeks and its still not here. Is there anyway I can track it? Or do you
have anyway info on when it will be here?
Hey, great video but i need some help. The connector you place into the Blu
ray drive chip @16:40 i have misplaced. Could you tell me what the part
name is or where i can but it from? Cheers
maybe re-examine your work and confirm all the elements are snapped it and
nothing is dislodged. I know very vague answer - if you follow the video
completely you should be back to normal.
Great Video. This is the 2nd laser I have had replace in just over a year
and 3 months. Unfortunately, I will need to use this video again because it
appears this new laser is DOA. :(
sorry for the long overdue reply, it turns out i kept either forgetting to
replace the metal piece OR connect the ribbon of the disc drive (since it's
hidden). It's worked since, thanks!
Hey i replaced the blu ray lens, it was working fine for a day then the
next i died again. Could the PCB? Also it reads regular DVDs fine that why
i thought it had to be the drive
Thank you so much for the detailed procedure!! My PS3 was slightly
different but I was able to follow your guide & got my laser replaced. My
PS3 can read Blu Ray disc now.
@ViolentDream Thank you for watching and Thank you for your kind remarks.
ok PSN content not loading is a Hard drive issue - You may have to replace
your hard drive as well.
Thank you for this straight forward simple to follow video. I followed it
step by step about half an hour ago, booted up and everything worked
flawlessly. Thanks again.
I have tried this twice... I must be not doing something correctly because
my games will not smoothly go in and also will not eject. What could
possibly be the issue?
Thank you very much for making this video. I followed your steps, and
successfully replaced the old laser for a new one. Now my PS3 is playing
blu-ray games again.
PlayStation 3 games in alphabetical order on your XMB (Read Description!)
Please read the description for directions.*** It's unfortunate that Sony still has not given us an easy method of sorting our game content alphabetically. The way I ...
Maybe, but it's fails in many other categories. I can deal with unorganized
icons when they have better exclusives; God of War, Twisted Metal,
Uncharted, Killzone, Uncharted , inFamous, Journey, Flower, Little Big
Planet, Heavy Rain, Rachet & Clank, Gran Turismo, MotorStorm, Last
Guardian, Neo-Geo Station. The only games I miss for the 360 is Left 4
Dead, Gears if War, Mass Effect, but if I really wanted I could play on the
PC. It would be an easy fix for Sony.CFW already has a hack for it.
Blargh! Wow that sucks! Here is where the 360 is better.
PS3 constantly messing up for no reason
READ UPDATE BEFORE COMMENTING: I've fixed the problem. Luckily it was under a month before I returned it to Gamestop. I was able to retrieve SOME data.
I know people with ps3's and they baby them but then they want to say oh
the 360 is a pos but never tell you that those people played that shit 24/7
with out a break and didn't even have it well ventilated and had it laying
on a carpet or some shit and then on top of that would move it while the
disk was still spinning. But the ps3 i've seen people treat it like a damn
baby and never abused it or ran it like people did the 360. An my proof is
my ps3 with only 20 hours of total use and its broke
i don't know how it works but i've seen people send the whole thing back
and i don't honestly think sony wants people to take the HDD out for a bad
optical blu ray drive. I know computers i build them this is a bad optical
drive. This is not an harddrive and no this is not a pc like you can just
slide the optical drive out and disconnect the wires from the back and i
wouldn't even attempt it and actually i don't know if i want another one if
this problem is this wide spread
I've even called Sony reps and after assuring them i wasn't with the BBB
better buisness bureau they even admitted to me that there is really no
difference between the two the elite 360 and the ps3 and they even admitted
that 19 percent of the ps3's have been returned due to the defected blu ray
disk no reading disks at all. This is coming from Sony representatives and
tech support no bull shit and anyone on this board can do the same and try
to prove me wrong if you can.
thats an opinion and not fact. here i can say the same thing. The ps3 is a
piece of shit and plus i have one over here thats broke with only 20 hours
of total use on it and an original 360 from launch still working with no
problems. Plus if you put an elite 360 and a ps3 on separate tv's you
couldn't and wouldn't tell the difference between the two. Both run at
1080p by the way. I could care less about both none of them beats my mac or
pc and thats a fact.
i think that xbox and playstation both messed up, they concentrated on
graphics and other things like blueray and live. what happened to the good
old days of normal xbox and ps2 none of them messed up like this. i had a
ps3 at 1st and it messed up so i returned it then i tried the 360 and it
lasted longer than the ps3 i have a new 360 now and its ok so i recomenned
360z cuz der cheaper and in my experience last longer :) lol. what do u
think?
maybe just maybe its a piece of shit and you need to get and xbox 360. You
wasted 600 on that you could have gotten two 360's or a 360 and alot of
games. Now you have to put that shit in a box and send it off to the Sony
company. At least Xbox 360 has repair shops that mod and fix the 360 so you
don't have to humiliate yourself by putting it in a box and taking it to
the post office(lol)
HI MY PS3 IS DOING THE SOME THING IV HAD IT 1 YEAR 2 MONTHS I HAVE NEVER
SEEN THIS BEFORE. I ALSO JUST WANT TO PLAY ITS NOT MY HARDRIVE OR HDD ITS
JUST MESSED UP. ALL I CAN DO IT LOOK AT THIS GOD DAM WAVEY LINES... I RELY
COSIDERING THE XBOX IF I WAS YOU secondsaladin I WHOULD GET IT CHANGED YOU
HAVE ONE YEAR GARENTI ADD ME ONLINE bulls02 HOPE THEY FIX THIS PROBLEM
Just keep restarting it. Eventually it will take you to the XMB. You can
format it there. But it will likely keep messing it up and you'll have to
format over and over again. Its best to get it replaced from wherever you
got it. You can re-download everything thats under your PSN name. But try
to backup your downloads before you take it back.
my ps3 did same thing just press the on off button till it goes of and red
light is on unplug it then plug back inhold down it again till it beeps
twice real fast it should come up with a list of things to do i pick
restore ps3 and it worked my messed up after watching a movie i downloaded
yea mine froze on me....i was playn cod4 and i was gonna reply 2 a
message...and guest what it froze...now i can only play it 6 hours and have
2 leet it cool down for 1 hour...dont hurt..i can wait i aint no freak..but
im good at cod4..add me my psn is g_cal tell me your from youtube....
Just got the 320 gig with the move thing it worked good for a week now as i
was playing the new mortal kombat it reset to to the ps screen wtf is up
any know oo it makes a clicking sound right after you turn it off is this
due to me leaving in a game whiel i turn it off Plezzz help me
send it 2 sony or try to replace the hard drive my frend sent it to sony n
they sed it was hard drive problems so they gave a new hard drive,
formattin the hard drive will delete everything on ther except ur online
data and trophies so just remember ur emal n password. hope it helps
and ppl say that ps3 dont have glicthes my ps3 is so fuck up befor i can
turn it on then all i see was the wve lines and thats it but now its a
black screen and i cant do anything. i cant call sony cuz i dont have the
recipe anymore and thats gay cuz my ps3 is still under warrenty
i stand corrected again for this yeah they would send a box out for an HDD
drive but mines is a bad blue ray drive something a bit more serious so i
have to send the whole thing back. I got you and another guy mixed up in an
arguement and posted it wrong. Sorry about that.
hey,i was wondering when you use the restore ps3 system does it delete all
your stuff including the user name which has the SSID name and
password.cause people say once the name has been done,its saved in your
router.i was wondering why im not connecting to the network.
my ps3 works but when i put my Game in like (cod4)ect or whatever more
games i have,i put them in but all it shows is the loading circle at the
top right but the cd doesnt pop up in my game slot...does anyone know what
i should do..has this happened to anyone???
I had a problem like this but mine went away, when you try to rebuild the
hard drive mine will just reset same as yours but then suddenly it worked
again! Looks like you need to send that brick off to sony, or buy a new
hard drive so it will format a fresh one.
PS3 is a good console just that i think that sice playing on the xbox and
360 the playstation controllers are too small. Want to save up for a PS3 of
my own but it will take a while to do because of the pricetag. Is there a
pal tv connection on the PS3.
this might help that kept happening 2 me 2 but then i put my call of duty 4
in to see if the game would start it didnt but instead of restarting it
actually loaded all the way. Ps: ur gunna lose all ur fukkin memory i know
it sukks really bad
dude u the man.that shit worked just like you.funny thing is i just got my
ps3 back from sony and 2 days later it froze but thanks to u it works
again.thanks thanks thanks thanks i say THANKS.we need more like ya in this
world.
i hav this one problem with cod4. it freezes when i get to the multiplayer
screen so i can't play online. single player works fine though. i also
cleaned the disc like 100 times but nothings working. can u help me?
you have to much smoke or dust in the ps3 that's why, the same shit happen
to me and I just use a strong hoe vacuum and sucked the top vent and side
vent while it's on and it work again better than new
the blue ray laser is broke. ring sony up and tell them whats wrong they
will deliver a new one with in a week =) they dont even ask you about the
warranty =) hope that helped.
mines messed up i says im offline all the time and tht every 1 else is
offline when they are online &so am i - i cnt add them to games or join
them its FUCKIN messed up !
PEOPLE if your ps3 isnt reading blue-ray diskes then phone up sony and they
will deliver a new one for you with in a week, but tell them whats wrong
with it first LOL. =)
is that really how you think it works? Sony will send you a postage-paid
box which you will use to send your HDD. not the entire ps3. heh. research
before you bullshit.
dont worry dude your not the only one mine dose the same thing and i just
contacted sony via email so when they get back to me with a solution ill be
sure to tell you
