PS3 Slim repair. PS3 Slim replacement KEM-450AAA laser and mechanism. Quality parts supplied by ConsoleParts4U Ltd.

Best £30 i've ever spent! My playstation3 started to not read game disks! DVD's worked fine and the console was perfectly fine just the blue ray laser. Games would not work, it would make an eject sound and keep trying to read a game disc but to no success.Fitted this bad boy in and it reads games normal again.Quite a fiddly job but it's not too difficult. 30-40mins max for a first timerIf you are not feeling confident about repairing it yourself just man up and do it. It's not difficult at all and there's plenty of videos on youtube to guide you!

my 4 year old ps3 slim all of a sudden stopped reading blu ray movies and reading some ps3 games, it would make weird noises and try to eject the disc but it would go back in straight away,i was about to spend 120 quid to have the whole drive replaced but decided to try this as a last resort,and i'm glad i did, the whole process took about 45mins to replace my drive and now my ps3 feels like its brand new,it can read any disc no problem,it was a fairly easy process ,there're a bunch of videos on youtube to show you how,and make sure to order the silverhill 4 pc tool kit as well that will provide the necessary tools to carry out the repair,big thanks to the sellers for this!

Easy to install and saved money on getting a pre built one with the cover etc. It takes about 40 minutes and thats if youre an amteur. Just make sure everything is plugged in properly when you start up as I assumed it hadn't worked but now my blu-rays read well :)

Works but not as fast

Inherent problems with Sony PS3 Slims not reading discs.......My PS3 slim decided to give up the ghost and not read any more games discs or DVD's. Decided to dismember the PS3 and investigate, as the warranty had passed (with the help of Youtube!!)Cleaned the laser, but this still did not solve the problem.Decided to purchase a new laser from ConsoleParts4U Ltd.Ordered late Sunday - arrived Tuesday.Fitted the new laser and was not too confident that this would solve the problem. Well, to my amazement, IT WORKED...!!!!!!In fact, it works better than the original laser....no noise or delay.My 4 year old, 8 year old are now very happy....and so am I !!!!!

Wasn't certain this was going to fix the issue but it did. 99 times out of 100, if you're having ongoing PS3 problems the cause will be either:a) trapped dust and fluff causing it to overheat - in which case you just open up and wipe/blow all the dust out carefully.orb) an issue with the laser and/or laser mechanism. And if cleaning it doesn't fix it then replacing it will.

i thought my ps3 was on it's way to the scrapheap, discs were taken up to an hour to read or sometimes not at all then i saw this on here and thought it was worth a try. best £30 i've ever spent, my ps3 loads discs quicker than it did even when it was new. it was so simple to install (even if you suck at technical stuff). if you need a new laser do not hesitate just get it. absolutely brilliant!!!
