DRE ps2 units and Lasers
 

Im thinking of buying a DRE unit off ebay and replaceing the laser and just wondering how hard it is to do to put a new laser in and is there other things that can cause a DRE besides the laser ?

lasers are reasonably easy to remove - replacing them depends on what tools you have at hand - i.e. if you are not replacing the entire unit and just the lens sled instead...

careful though most replacement lasers are used and some don't even work. Be sure of the person you are buying from before handing over money!

and i heard u have to adjust ur laser at well im not sure if i could do that i just figerd i would buy a dre system off ebay cause there relly cheap and i found lasers on there for about 30$ then i would only pay 60$ or 70$ for a ps2 unit if i fixed it :) but takeing the laser out thats not a porb i did that b4 just about ajusting it im new to that.
