Not often I give reviews but after watching your tutorial and following, my Xbox is back up and running! Having little electronic skills and NO soldering skills, your tutorial presented as a step-by-step guide and how-to every step of the way! everything easily understood. I had even looked into trading in the Xbox for a measly $18. at Gamestop but after seeing your tutorial I purchased a NEW disc drive for $35. and now its running like new! Thanks for the EXPERT help, I'll be back for any other issues and happy to pass your name on to anyone needing help!!

@dapcontinental5140 Did you use flux while soldering?

So actually using your video to take the disc drive apart I was able to clean up all the components in the disk drive and it plays every disk again :-) thank you

Are the disc drives the same for Xbox One and Xbox One S ? I have an S that has a bad hard drive and was thinking of swapping the disc drive from there to my original Xbox One which doesn’t read discs anymore
Yes they will function the same. Make sure to swap the daughter board!
What was the model # on the original disc drive that was in the xbox s to order a new one?
DG-6M5S-02B
Great job, thanks❤

Great tutorial!
Thanks 🙏🏻
What temp do u set ur solder iron on to remove the wires and stuff
Mine is at 750. Just heat it up enough to melt the solder and you should be good. Use flux if you have some it makes it way easier.
Question , if I buy the disc drive for xbox one s directly from you do we still need to replace the motherboard piece and use a soldering gun?
Yes, because you would have to take out the daughter board from your original disc drive, and install it into the new one.
@@Joesge thank you
Will switching the daughter board or switching the disc drive affect the memory of the Xbox one S. Because im having problems where its not reading games nor movies.
If you don't keep that daughterboard with its original console when changeling the disc drive, then it wont read discs at all. If you properly replaced your disc drive and it still isn't reading discs, Sometimes a cable isnt plugged in all the way, or something is loose.
My Xbox 1s plays only some blu-rays and some games but the ones it'll Play it will play them any time I put them in but the games and blu-rays that won't play well never play no matter how many times I stick them in do you think a new disc drive will fix that ?
Yes I would try replacing the disc drive, but before replacing it I would check those discs that don't work, and make sure they aren't scratched or damaged. Here is a link to the disc drive --> bit.ly/3KdmN7I
Is there any way to pair a new sister board with an existing console?
No im not sure if thats possible.
@@Joesge Too bad. Would love to see the bottom of that rabbit hole.
If i replace my disc drive with a new disc drive from your website, will i have all the functions back as it used to be? Not only gaming but also dvd and blu-ray?
Yes, just make sure to swap the daughter board.
@@JoesgeHey Joe. I couldn't order a disc drive from your website because there weren't any in store. So i copied the specifications of the disc drive and ordered one via amazon. I changed the daughter board and installed the new disc drive in my console. With my first xbox start up, the disc drive rattled a lot, also with a second restart, it rattled. With a small heart, i inserted a game disk and it played fine and silently. After this game test, i ejected the game disc. Wich also went smoothly. After i turned off my console, it started itself up and searched for a disc, after a second time turning the console off, it restarted itself again. Then i went to my options and turned it off there, that also worked and it kept my xbox turned off. I discovered that it keeps trying to slurp a disc in every 5 minutes, even when i don't present a disc or even when i turned off my xbox. That's why it restarts. Do you have any idea what the problem might be?
@@Pete_Back toss it and get a PC, ima try to fix my one s but if its too much of a hassle, its time to invest into a PC, im done with consoles
After following the video and getting everything put back together, it still isn't reading any discs that are inserted. It accepts the disc great, but just doesn't read them. Any thoughts on why this may be happening? Great video by the way!
Make sure that all the ribbons are plugged into the disc drive as well as the motherboard. Sometimes the ribbons come loose.
I'm fixing a xbox one s for my neighbor and the only thing wrong with it. Is the band that attaches to the motor. Is there anyplace I can get some bands?
We don't sell the bands, and i don't know if anyone just sells the bands. Might have to buy a new disc drive.
My kid pushed a card in and got stuck, but thanks to you I was able to get it out.Thanks!

Those Dang kids 😂
@@Joesge Already did
I don't know what to do when I opened the disce drive to my Xbox the ribbon clips were broken and it looks like someone used glue to hold them. If anyone knows something I could do about this it would be great!
Sounds like you may have to replace the whole disc drive
Does it have to be the same brand of disc drive?
Yes
Will an Xbox one x drive work in an Xbox one S (after swapping the sister board).
Yes it should. They are the same unit used in multiple different consoles.
Does anyone know how too figure out what model disc drive I would need for my Xbox one slim? I'm a little lost
Hello, thanks for commenting. Please email us at support@joesge.com with your question. We will be able to better assist you there. - JoesGE
Honestly I dropped my x box one S because I was using wired controllers, I'm in Zimbabwe by the way(wired controllers are way cheaper), I followed the tutorial it is well explained and managed to remove the stuck Disc it has a circular scratch along the Disc ( titan fall 2) but now the consoles doesn't read any Disc, I only removed the power and the other slot from the motherboard I didn't remove the ribbons to access the disc
Make sure to plug back in the cables correctly. Also its possible that the Disc drive was damaged during removing the disc.
When I put a disc in it makes a noise and it won't let me play and would you give me tips how to fix that issue
Mine does the same 😅

How do you know if a drive has been replaced without swapping the daughter board?
im not exactly sure on that one.
With the oprical drive. The log file will give an error message that the serial is wrong and the console wont work. Games wont boot. The motherboard and optical drive are paired. Swapping the daughter board keeps the serial number correct.
@Charles Clarke okay so I did the repair based on this video and swapped the daughter board, but the new drive was getting so hot that it scorched the inside of the drive housing. Any advice?
@@llamatorocco It has to be the same type of drive, if not it won't work. The optical drive is paired with the motherboard. It's a part of the copy protection. There are videos were they state during the repair that the xbox series s is a brick. It won't play games and the log shows an error with the serial number.
So the copy protection makes sure that the drive is original from the factory. Some people replace the optical drive and motherboard because they are paired. You can just replace the drive and it will work but games won't boot.
Now if you take the board from one optical drive to another then that board will need to work as well. Also it will need to be the same drive to work. If there is a fault on the board inside the optical drive then that not going to help matters.
For some reason when I put any disc in my disc drive it won’t run the game, so idk what’s wrong with it, idk if I need to replace it or fix it, what can I do
You may have a bad or dirty laser inside the disc drive
@@Joesge oh ok thanks for telling me
My disc drive sometimes takes a disc back in after 1-2 seconds when you press the eject button, do you know why that happens?
If you press it multiple times it will take the disc right back in. Even if you press it once, then apply any pressure to the disc it will think you are putting it back in. If neither of these are your problem, it could be a faulty switch on the disc drive, but if its not that big of an inconvenience then its not worth messing with.
Ah okay, thanks for the info! It's not really a big deal but it's a bit weird when that happens lol. I didn't know about that! I'm not gonna mess with it but i was wondering if it was faulty but i couldn't find much info about it online.
I just replaced the laser alone and put it all back together… but not it doesn’t spin discs or blu ray at all. I tried running it with the Xbox opened up and I can see the laser lighting up, but it won’t spin discs. Any ideas?
Make sure you swapped the daughter board from the original into the replacement disc drive or else nothing will work properly.
@@Joesge I am still using the original disc drive and board. All I did was swap the laser component itself…
So I decided to take my Xbox One apart for some cleaning, then when I put it back together, at first the disc drive worked perfectly fine, but now whenever I try to insert a disc, it won't accept the disc. Do you know what the problem could be? Thanks!
I would check and see if you plugged in all the wires and ribbons correctly.
My xbox one s doesn't read hardly any of my games it makes a weird grinding noise every time i put something in it just started doing it 2 weeks ago
Definitely either open it up and see if any debris is in there, or replace it.
I've tried all the games I own and none work except red dead 2 is there a reason that that specific game is the only one it seems to read
Its possible that the discs are damaged and not the disc drive
@@Joesge I've put a brand new game in and it still not work.
Is your console updated? Cause mine didn't read games until I updated it
The black and yellow conjoined cord and the black cord connected to my disc drive are legit stuck, I don’t know what to do.. might as well get a new console then break the whole damn thing.
This cable can be really tight. I would slowly wiggle it back and forth the long way. Even some isopropyl alcohol can relive some of the pressure you have to give.
I had a hard time with that cable I had to gentle yank it to the left and right but then it came off later
I bought an Xbox One S Disc version secondhand off a guy without testing and turns out that his kids shoved a bunch of pokemon cards in the drive. I got them out and it's still not working. Is there anything else I should check before just getting a new drive?
What are the symptoms. Contact us at support@joesge.com and we might be able to help you out there.
Bro there was a ducking guitar pick in my drive lmao. No wonder the guy sold it to me for $20. He didn’t know what was wrong lmao thanks for the video but my shit still makes noise and doesn’t put the disc all the way
Hello, you're very welcome. Thank you for the comment. Please like and subscribe for more content like this 😊 We do sell disc drives on our website if you would like to replace it.
So, i put in a different disc drive and my games still wont read at all.
Make sure you put your original daughter board on your drive or else the disc might be scratched Hope that helps brother
@@hedjoudjemohamed5070 I did switch the daughter board and I checked the rest of the disc drive for anything wrong I can't find it, I also got new cords too.
I would make sure that all the ribbons are connected properly, and things are soldered on the correct points.
I don't have a soder gun but it won't play my movies
It's either a software issue or a faulty disc drive
The silver wire is off my red wire
