I bought a wii premodified with a wiikey in january of this year. The problem i have is i cannot get the wii to take a disc. if the power is on or off, it doesn't seem to matter. the wii takes the disc in and i hear a clicking noise it ejects itself and pulls the disc back in a second time, then ejects the disc completely..

when i insert a disc partially, and remove it the eject drive does not make the clicking noise... and when the drive works, which hasn't been for a couple weeks, the clicking noise is not heard.

it does not matter which way the disc is inserted.. i am leaning towards an issue with the drive eject mechanism?

please help!

thanks

Try cleaning the lens. Other wise pull and replace the drive or check the insides.

sorry about the delay.. i figured i would get an email notification? *box checked*

anyway, is there a link to dismantle the case? is it like an xbox 360 to take apart? does the drive have to be re modded if found faulty?

youtube is your friend. If you have it sofmodded then no, if you have it hard modded, then yes.
