Question about laser diode

**euz100** · 03-05-2006,10:42 AM

I burnt my laser diode by ajusting resistance, it reads CDs but not DVDs. The question is, where can I buy working PS2 laser diodes, and what tools are needed to replace a Diode. Also why are optical unit for ps2 slim so cheap, and if the diode on a PS2 slim works on a 400B, and if there are any alternative to original sony diodes, , thanks...

diodes are suposed to be realy hard to replace. think the slim ones are chep compared to onld ones because 1. they are crap 2. they dont make old ones anymore. you must be unluckey one of my ps2's has its dvd pot down to 200 when it should have blone at like 800

How can I check if it is really blown? With the lack of option, would a ps2 slim diode work with the 400B?
