Panasonic Blu-Ray DMR-BW880 Blu-Ray/DVD reader/writer.


I have inherited one that has had a DVD-cleaner disc put through it, and
of course now the Blu-Ray laser appears stuffed. DVD still works OK.

There are still a few mechs ( Panasonic VXY2077-A ) available for a
ridiculous price, and I was wondering if anybody has any info or
suggestions for what could be done to attempt to repair this one.

None of the hair-thin wires to the lasers appear damaged, and the
focusing linear-motor and laser block moves freely and does not appear
to be off-centre. The one with a blue tinge is very slightly more
distant than the other (normal, due to different wavelength ?).

Maybe the range of the focus- assembly has been reduced ?

Grateful any suggestions. (I am an experienced tech, though not at
optical drive internals ! )
