> 3 dayCheap and easy way to keep your old Wii working - the optical drive is the most obvious component to fail. This is the second time Ive had to replace one. Not exactly easy to disassemble a Wii to do the replacement , but thats not the fault of this product here.

> 3 dayThe DVD Drive Replacement Repair Part for Nintendo Wii Game Console works great. Was so glad I was able to get working again. It does take some time taking it apart, but well worth it and did not have to buy another concole.

Greater than one weekWorked perfectly. I was extremely happy that the kit came with the proper tools as well. Revived our old Nintendo Wii which couldn’t read disks no matter how much we cleaned it.

Greater than one weekThis item replaced the DVD drive on my old wii. I pulled up instructions on ifixit and went through the process. The included tools are helpful but low in quality. The spludger was pretty much destroyed at the end. Two comments in the instructions are helpful. First, the included tri screw driver needs to be filed down because the point is too sharp to engage the screws on the unit. Secondly use needle nose pliers to disconnect the faceplate, not tweezers because you risk cutting the wires. It took a little longer than I expected but the outcome was great.

> 3 dayOur Wii console had the issue where the system would start up and display the Wii menu on the TV, but the tile for the DVD game disc would never load the small preview and would show an error about reading the disc when you tried to select it. After following some detailed drive replacement instructions online (and cursing those Tri-wing screws left and right), I finally got it replaced. The Wii works normally now and the kids have been playing off and on for a couple weeks. So far, so good! My only tip would be to be very careful with the tri-wing screws. Some of mine were in rather tight and both the tri-wing driver and the tri-wing screws would round out and wear out. Ultimately, I had to use my dremel to very carefully cut a straight flat slot in the last tri-wing screw in order to get it out. Then, I did the same to all of the other screws in order to be able to reassemble. If you can find flat or Phillips replacements for the various screws, I would recommended doing that. But that tip is irrelevant of this DVD drive part. So far the part is doing as advertised.
