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

I had to return the first unit I got cause it came defective, got a replacement and works fine. Installation toke about 2 hours, you need to have certain knowledge and foremost care when you try to install this on your wii. You can find tutorials online with step by step. The product is a generic disc reader, so far is working just fine

Exactly what I needed tonget the old wii up and running again

This item arrived as used. Multiple dents in the housing of the drive. A poor effort was made to conceal all of the scratches with a silver marker. Looks like it was removed from and old console with a poor attempt at reconditioning.

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.

My 2006 WII stopped reading disc the other day. this was able to get it working again. Install wasnt too bad, lots of little screws with a few of them under the feet or little stickers. keep track of where they go and it should back together easy.

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

The first drive I ordered was faulty so I asked for a replacement and they got a replacement to me within a few days and the new one works just fine!

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!

The replacement drive works and, fortunately, is relatively easy to install, even with no previous experience fixing consoles or devices. However, I initially thought it to be broken because the drive was not accepting any disks. I finally noticed that it was missing the white strip that was present on my already broken drive (and the advertised photo), and was able to carefully transfer it over so that it is fully functional. It appears that I am not the first one with this issue. As mentioned by others, the product appears to be used and possibly removed from other broken Wiis (which may explain the missing part). I cannot speak to the quality of the tools included, as I used my own. The response to my request for help by the seller was for me to purchase another drive and then they would refund me $20.

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.
