Replaced PS4 Optical Drive still won't work

The CD spins for a few seconds and then it stops. Then I get an unrecognized disc error. I have replaced the ribbon cables that attach to the motherboard and nothing.

Can anyone help me?

You need to use the orginal motherboard that was with that replacement drive.

If this is the case the Bluray laser in the drive will need to be replaced.

This is done by keeping the original drive board that came with the console and transferring that to a replacement Bluray drive and use that.

agreed. keeping the original board is very important. won't work without it

If your drive still doesn’t work after replacing it could be the fuse on motherboard.

Search google & replace the F6202 fuse (check the others near it as they could be a problem also).

This fixed it for us. No new drive or motherboard needed.
