you need to use back the power feed from the origin PCB board (power harness board) just feeding power to the motor it's only gave one way. unless u know electronics stuff you can use relay for it to run up and down.

Exactly as Pete says - have you wired to the existing board or straight to the motor?

If you've wired to the board, check you haven't dislodged the long potentiometer that tells it its position.

It looks similar to this:

Faulty disk or laser head. There is very little you can do other than try another disk or run a disk cleaner. Outside of that they don't sell spares so it would be another unit. Maybe you could salvage one off a scrapper.

haven't bought one and tested myself.

i'm sure a lot LOC member not recommended it :hocus-pokus:

if it's cheap won't do any harm (origin version)

you might as well re-copies the disc you got and test if it's works on yours car disc drive

worn in middle of disc?..... (might be the drive problem as it's grinding the disc)
