Why is my disc drive and controller sync not working?

I have a fairly unique issue I believe. I have a disc drive that doesnt seem to have any power (wont try to load discs or activate laser). My wii is also not syncing with any wiimotes. Is it possible that this is related to a blown fuse or some sort of power failure? I thought that it may be a dead drive motor (to load and unload discs), but now it seems to be a power issue in other areas. The wii still boots up and runs fine. Please lend some advice if you have any.
