      You cant just replace the full drive can you?..does it involve firmware or sumat..never done owt like that before..
      I believe mine is a single laser either kem/kes-400aaa as it takes the disc straight in..so can your drive tom be put into mine with just replacing the boards..thx

        I have always been lead to believe that the drive board and the mainboard have to be matched and should not be split. No doubt there will be a way of reprograming both so there is recognition but the way to go seems to be keep the board off the matched drive and replace the laser mechanism
        Please upload pictures using attachment function when ask for help on the repair

              PS5 Disc Not Supported/ Disc Not Recognized Board Num: EDM-020
              by Junior††


              Good Afternoon fellas,

              Issue:
              Disc is showing as not supported when a disc is put in.

              Here's what I've done, you can skip this if you just wanna know the question:
              - replaced with a disc drive from a donor ps5 (honestly questionable if this is known to work)
              - reflowed the disc drive connector
              -reflowed the chip in question (shown on image)
              - I will say this console was very dusty so it's conceivable that it got so hot that it made the chip joints cold and potentially other things on the board

              Question:
              I...

              Onkyo DX-V500 Laser Disc Player - weird SMPS fault
              by dkneyle
              This relic from a technology path that came to a dead end (but still has historical interest) was brought in with a dead SMPS, which is based around a MK1210 device. I got it going after a battle. It seems to have a strange design - if it's not getting feedback that the secondary is OK it cause the big FET to go into full conduction and overloads resulting in a blown fuse at best or something worse! I'm using a Dim Bulb Tester (70W/230V) which thankfully has saved the day a number of times whilst repairing.

              Now, it loads a CD OK. The motor voltage output (which is built onto the SMPS...

              Hilti PD30 Laser Range meter Error 276
              by Dannyx
              Good day folks.....wow, seems like forever since I posted anything here Still alive and well, thank you I guess you could say I've become more independent and able to work stuff out on my own. This one though goes way over my head and I doubt is fixable, but maybe some bright spark out there has an equally bright idea.

              So: my Hilti PD30 laser meter quit on me just the other day. It was working fine, I set it down for a while and when I tried using it again it gave me an E276 and wouldn't do anything else. I tried taking out the batteries, all that standard stuff but nothing...

              Power DeWalt 12V laser measure from power supply
              by dansity
              Hello,
              i got a Dewalt laser measure which uses the 12V batteries to operate. The laser measure is faulty and I want to attempt a repair, never fixed such thing before. You might see a different topic if I fail with the repair
              However I do not have dewalt batteries nor want to buy one for 140EUR as the laser tool might have some chance that it is very hard to repair or unrepairable.
              I want to power it from my PSU.
              The tool has 3 input pins, on the battery it is marked with B-, B+ and ID/TH.
              i want to know what is the third pin exactly and what do I need...

              I would like an explanation of how a laser can measure a product on a conveyor belt
              by sam_sam_sam
              I saw this on

              “How do they do it “

              The laser was measuring the diameter and the height of the product and the weight of the product and it was a straight line laser light across the the conveyor belt ( this is all that was shown in the video clip of the laser that was used )

              What type of product is this that can do this

              I want to thank anyone that knows what of laser this is
