Title
Servicing the Nintendo Wii (RVL-001) disc drive
Introduction
Hey Momo here showing you how to service and maintain your Wii disc drive! This guide only goes for the original models with GameCube as far as I know but I'm sure a lot of the steps can be used for reference here. I'm not going to cover opening your Wii as there's already great guides on here for those and much more, but when it came to the OEM disc drive I just saw the option to "replace" the disc drive instead of opening up and cleaning it. In my experience the drives are relatively straightforward and I believe with my photos to reference you for avoiding mistakes I made on a practice drive, you should have your drive working perfectly in no time!
