Xbox One S Not Reading Discs - It SHOULD Have Been Easy!

[@ajaks7636]

Great Repair and Video! You should have at least 20K subscribers. Good Luck! Thank You.

[@shtepinski]

Many thanks. Where you get this laser mechanism

Lmao I bought a used Xbox one S for the sole purpose of playing discs, otherwise I would have bought the series S. I spent $323 after tax at a local mom and pop shop. Didn’t realize my disc reader didn’t work until yesterday when I bought Tony Hawks 1&2 to play. So they essentially sold me a faulty Xbox for the price of a retail modern gen console. And if I take it back to return it they will charge me a refurbishing fee when they initially should have tested it when they were purchasing it from the seller. So now I’m stuck with this pos console

Nice vid sweet to see these edits coming in nicely too. ❤

[@GetRefurbed]

Getting there. Slowly.

[@michaellucas1399]

I’ve tried the “hold the power button for 10 seconds” theory, the “put it halfway in and let it spin” theory, the “turn it on it side and let gravity do its thing” theory, I’ve tried the “power saver mode” theory and I’ve tried cleaning my discs. I’m out of ideas. The only thing I haven’t tried is cleaning the dust out but I don’t have the tools to take my Xbox apart and I don’t have an air can to blow it out so please let me know if you have any ideas??

Hair dryer on low settings

[@mastergillbates]

I have one that will play blu ray movies no problem, I have successfully installed one game from disc but it’s having a heck of a time detecting game discs. It’s driving me nuts.

[@droidv1]

My Xbox is weird. Normally you would put the disk there and it would pull it in but since a few months ago now we have to put the disk there, then press the eject button and it pulls it in. Very weird Any suggestions?

New to the channel and just looking to get into console/electronic repairs just as a hobby Watch a few of your vidoe and think the channel and what your doing is great Thanks

[@GetRefurbed]

Comments like these that make it what it is buddy. Hopefully something here helps you along the way! It'll be a little quiet for the next couple of weeks but when we move, we'll be back to posting regularly :)

[@antisocialexperience]

Edits, coming along. Love the content.

[@retrophil8241]

So what was the problem in the end? I couldn't figure that out. Was it just in need of a good clean inside? I have a XBOX ONE S which is doing the exact same thing. I hadn't touched it in roughly a year and was working fine the last time it was on.. Now it's doing exactly what that one was at the start.

[@KazsprG]

Nice video Wayne. Even spare parts can be bad and will send you down a rabbit hole. Good Job!

[@GetRefurbed]

Isn't that the truth!

[@PhilipBryden]

Thumbs up from me. Glad you got there in the end. Looking forward to more videos.

[@GetRefurbed]

Thanks Mr B. Appreciate that!

[@zoltanfarkas3880]

what motor does the disc drive use ? can i use one from an old bluray player ?

[@GetRefurbed]

I couldn't actually tell you buddy.

[@zoltanfarkas3880]

@@GetRefurbed it's alright man I took the drive out my old one s I just had to swap the motherboard and shave off one of the plastic mounts on the front of the disc drive . other then that they run the same disc drive . it's an easy swap

[@jeffrofoo6910]

Great stuff. Helped me fix my Series S drive!

[@agdplayerthatiscool]

This isn't for series s it for the one s

[@Realcitysudios]

I've got same sort of problem, brand new laser fitted and it still not reading dis., could it be a motor problem, makes noises trying to work but nope :/

[@Realcitysudios]

I just power off with button and retried and it worked eventually

[@MicroMageRepair]

Nice work, the editing is coming along

Thanks buddy!

Nice win!. Good Job, Good tips

[@MaverickBS1]

What model chassis is the disk drive? I want to do the whole swap, with just the board. I want to make sure I order the right part..

[@bobafett9321]

I have this Xbox, it will play fifa 20 disc but it won’t play my Xbox 360 discs, I don’t know why it doesn’t even spin the discs and won’t show up on the Home Screen.

[@GetRefurbed]

I don't believe the One S is backwards compatible with 360 discs buddy. I could be wrong but I think you'll need a 360 to play those.

[@omava426]

my xbox wont read the 2k23 disc

[@feetishfriend9624]

Awesome, fix seems simple enough.. but 2 more Xboxes for spare parts and pray that you don't have to buy a third.. or find a safe site to still have to purchase multiple parts...😑🔫 either way, good video. Wether or not I have the spare equipment, it's good to see someone actually do the work to show a fix is legit.

[@LiamJones-bm1eu]

My Xbox one s didn’t read discs and few days later stopped turning on and I still have that Xbox now because it’s been repaired and I still have another Xbox one s for spares lol

[@thefakebobafettig-8845]

Wait so did you just keep trying it until it worked?

[@GetRefurbed]

I can't actually remember bud, i'll have to go back and look!

[@thefakebobafettig-8845]

[@onasazi]

Hi Wayne! I got an xbox one (OG) it doesn’t read xbox one games but it does read: xbox, xbox 360 and Blu-ray! Would you go and try to replace the laser?! Weird that it plays everything except xbox one!!

[@GetRefurbed]

Hey buddy. Absolutely. Book it in on the website. Www.getrefurbed.com

[@GetRefurbed]

@@onasazi I misunderstood. Sorry, yes, defintely replace the laser buddy. Ebay for lasers.

[@onasazi]

@@GetRefurbed oh would you know if laser for xbox one and Xbox one s are the same?? As i see one but it doesn’t specify.

[@GetRefurbed]

@@onasazi I believe they are different lasers. But please don't quote me on that. I can never recall, I normally use a donor that I have in stock

[@leearons8371]

great video mate new here and cant wait to see more

[@bmxonel0ve]

So in the end was the laser or the mechanism? Im thinking about to buy the part also but not sure which one to buy first 😂

[@Hollow-Wollow]

How much you charge for xbox one s?

[@GetRefurbed]

For what job buddy?

[@isaiahbarnes3624]

Does anyone else’s make a weird wirring noise, it also doesn’t even acknowledge that a disc has been put in.

[@MultipleGrievance]

The only thing reliable about the Xbox is that it will inevitably break itself in the most creative way possible.
