Nintendo — GameCube
Two spare Nintendo GameCube optical drives (DOL-001) recapped. One came back to life, one didn't. The dead one reads 30 ohms on the motor where the working one is OL, which likely points to a dead motor.
After receiving a shipment from Mouser with some fresh SMD electrolitics, I recapped the two spare Gamecube optical drives I have laying around. Also restored the previously stolen resistor. What do you guys reckon? Were they fixed? See below 👇 #RETROGAMING #Nintendo #gamecube
This time, the recap fixed one and didn't help the other. The one I had stolen the resistor from, it moves the laser but the disc does not begin to spin. I measured the motor with multimeter, it comes out at 30 ohms, while the one that works reads as OL (open line). Dead motor?
