abcGoodefg Nintendo Wii DVD Drive Replacement Disc Drive Repair Part with Opening Tool

Perfect solution for disk read error on the Wii. Comes with the tools needed for easy install. Happy to be able to play Wii games again. Used on original Wii that was purchased 2006.

The package was a little sketchy, but the product was in good shape. After installing the product worked well. My cube games will not work with the replacement drive. I have 7 cube games that won’t work with new drive!!☹️☹️

This is exactly what we needed to get our Wii up and running again. After the original part could no longer read disks we tried several cleaning methods that didnt work. An easy Youtube search suggested replacing the disk reader. This disk reader is very cost effective. You DO need to have the proper Y shaped screw driver. It was so easy my 12 year old son replaced it while following a Youtube tutorial all on his own. Dont be intimidated by this repair. You can do it! I also love that since we were only replacing the disk reader (and not repurchasing a new WII) all of our data and game progress was still saved.

Affordable, securely packed and, easy to install. Just make sure you have the right tools (y tip) screwdriver.

Received a D4ver.2 unit. Plugged it up and works fine. Unit is clean and no signs of wear/abuse. Will follow up in future with update and reliability.

Our system hadnt been used in a while, mainly because the system was very temperamental about accepting and reading game disks. I found a site that walked through the steps to replace the drive (ifixit.com) and then ordered this replacement drive. Product appeared to be new, contrary to a few reviews here. Product arrived in just a few days, and the instructions on the other site were easy enough to follow, and replacement took about an hour or so. Note: you will need Tri-wing screwdriver for the replacement, and using separate containers for screws and parts is very helpful when disassembling and reassembling. Once everything was back together, the system fired up and works like new. Couldnt be happier.

Worked

My Wii has come back to life! I watched a YouTube video several times to know how to remove the original drive. The first one I ordered would not work; it wouldn’t accept the disk. I really wanted my Wii back and exchanged for a second and tried again. The second one worked like a dream. You definitely need to also order the game screw driver kit for those Y screws. Make sure you have good light and reading glasses when you start

Easy kit to replace the DVD reader on my Wii, once the Wii was opened up. This solved my issue. I followed the ifixit guide (text and pictures), but there are plenty of videos out there too. This kit came with the rubber grommets already which saved a few steps. The screws were too tight or corroded on my Wii, so RIP smudger and triwing screw driver, they lasted halfway. I saw another review mention filing the tip on the screwdriver down and I wish I had tried that first. The Philips head worked fine and survived. I’d also recommend having utility tweezers. Other than that, this kit has everything to switch out the DVD reader. I fired it up and it works fine. It seems a bit quieter than the old one was before it died. I only took a star because the tools were weak and I really could have used a more reliable triwing. Will have to see how long it holds up! Hopefully a long time, because I’m not too eager to track all those screws again. Saved me a few bucks fixing a part than replacing an old system.

After a decade of not being able to use our Wii, I found this option and so glad I did! For $33 our Wii is working like new again. None of our games would read in the drive before. We switched it out with this drive and now our games are working like new again. All of our previous game saves were able to stay. Super happy with this purchase!!
