Disk drive not ejecting or receiving disks, will read though.

Hi guys!

Cleaned my 4yo PS4 the other day, but when I put it back together the disk drive isnt accepting or ejecting disks, it makes three quick beeps when pressing the eject button.

The only problem I had with the teardown was I broke the tabs on one of the ends of the ribbon cable going from the MB to the disks drive, but it's seated and the drive is reading this disks fine with manually put in.

Would that be the issue or have a missed something else?

Thanks in advanced!

Hello sir and good day,

try this remedy and let let me know:

The first step is to hold down the power button until the system beeps twice. Then wait about 30 seconds until all system lights are off, unplug the power cable, and leave it be for three minutes.

let me know if it works

Replace the ribbon cable as that most likely is culprit . I would start there as it’s a cheap replacement and see if that’ll fix the issue
