This can be caused by a dirty laser in the drive. Try cleaning the laser with a q-tip and alcohol. If this does not fix the problem, the laser may need to be replaced. Contact Sony and see if the unit is still under warranty.

Play station three is not reading discs

Hello,

The problem is that the lens of your ps3 is either dirty or weak that it can no longer read any disc, i advice that you get a lens cleaner to clean the lens of your game, if after cleaning, problem persist, replace the lens on your ps3 so that your ps3 can continue to function as it use to function before.

Replace the lens on your ps3 and you will see that it will start reading discs.

Take care.

My ps3 is not reading discs

Hi,

This problem is common with the PS3 and typical of a failure of the bluray drive. It can sometimes be resolved by cleaning the laser pickup lens but often the lens itself needs to be replaced.

For a full breakdown on the issues involved please view this FixYa Tip.

If this helps please do leave a vote for the solution.

Thanks.

My ps3 system recently stopped reading any discs

i have got the same problem, you can either get a new blue ray lens and fit it yourself or give sony a ring and they will change your console for you.

Ps3 not reading discs

take it back to the store and get them to fix it. I think the problem is the lasers are out of alignment as the same thing happened to mine.
