I updated my wii console 2 days ago with the new 3.3 update, since then I have encountered serious problems. Initially my wii would swallow both original and backup discs make a loud grinding sound and then spit them out, however it is now not even taking the discs in.

I have a Wiinja v2 chip need help please.

That grinding sound might have resulted in you blowing a fuse, I have had this problem and had to either bridge or connect the 2 points with a wire temporarily, A word of warning though if you didn't fit your own Mod or don't have much experience soldering I would get someone that does have this experience to help you cause this problem can be fixed but a melted drive board can't be unless you want to invest in a new one...

Remember to check the fuse with a Multimeter before hand though, Give it a try you have nothing to lose since your Wii is currently dead anyway...




Above is a screenshot of what the wire solutions looks like...

Hope it helps...
