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

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

I liked that this product came with the screwdrivers and tools I needed. It took me about 1 hour to install and it was fairly simple; however, it ultimately did not fix my problem. Now I have to uninstall it and send it back. Ugh. My issue on my Wii was never that it wouldn’t take the disc but that once you were playing the game (any game) it would randomly say “An Error has occurred. Press the Eject button, remove the disc, and turn off the power to the console. Please read the Wii operations manual for further instructions”. It was very frustrating especially when in the middle of playing and we never knew when it was going to happen. My kids were so excited for it to be fixed and when I finally plugged it in to test it out, the error code showed up before we even picked a player. So disappointed.

Cheap 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.

Was able to fix my Wii no problem. The actual process is a bit complicated, lots of screws and stuff, but this drive fit perfectly!

I brought my Wii out of storage but the disc drive had failed, this one works great! Although you will need to know how to put it together, so youll need some tech knowelge

Screwdriver got worn with each screw taken out but install was fairly easy and the Wii now works

Replacing the drive was all that was needed to fix the Wii so it would once again play the game discs.

Installed and working within 15 minutes. The disc drive in my wii was not reading the discs anymore, swapped it for this one from Amazon, and my son was playing games immediately. Received it very fast too!

This product was exactly as described. My Wii console was unable to read disc. I was worried I had to buy a totally new system, but this made it so I didnt have to buy a retired system. Nintendo no longer sells. It was easy to install after watching a YouTube video.

Works well so far but considering the price of pre-owned Nintendo Wii ($50~$80), its a bit pricy I think.
