Let start by saying i have searched and searched the internet the afterdawn forums and called people offering this service with little to no luck and am confused from some of the info i have received

i own the local computer repair store and lately i have gotten a few calls about the fat ps3 laser (kem/s 400)going bad. i have done plenty of these replacements buying them from ebay and such.then i found a local guy who sells big time on ebay and started buying from him local($50 a piece).i know its not a bad price but here is what im looking to do.i have a guy that is great with soldering and we have purchased a few diodes(6) to be exact in doing all of these we managed to get one working.with very little effort at all. the problem is i have 5 that all appear to work.they light up blue and red and seem to focus correctly (from what i can see with out any electronic help)my goal is to be able to replace the diodes and save everyone money the cost is about 20 for the diode vs 50 for a laser assembly plus a mark up if sold to a customer.i'd love to get that down for alot of reasons

my question is this for all you that have tried this or know anything about this process.is there a way to calibrate these things or am i wrong in thinking that calibrating these is the problem.does it involve things like an oscilloscope or other tools (if so any explanation would be (helpful)

i have read on other forums about a disk that does this for sony and big expensive machines also the disk thing i do not buy the machines i do but also people have said about a computer program that can do it but i question that because how would you hook up the laser to the pc?

any help would be appreciated and not only help me but i hope we can share all the information with ps3 users to save us all some money and not keep forking out to sony
