Hey all,

I'll be heading to Seoul this weekend in hopes of fixing my PS3.

My PS3 has stopped reading Blu-Ray discs, and I am fairly certain that it's a problem with the lens. I was wondering if anyone knows of, or has had dealings with, a place that repairs PS3's in Seoul.

For the record, I've taken apart my PS3 and cleaned the lens manually. I've also checked for file curroption and the like.

Best

There is a thread about this. Search my posting history. Basically, go to Naebang Station on line 7 and walk out Exit 5. When you get to the top of the hill (the first intersection with a traffic light) there will be a Sony service center on the 2nd floor of the building on the corner (on your right). They fixed mine- which by the sound of it had the same problem as yours- in about 20 minutes.

How much was the repair and was yours a US or Korean model?

There was a special warranty period for PS3's that had such a problem. It was common with earlier 60gb models, if memory serves. Perhaps others, too.

You should have checked before opening yours up.

I have a Korean PS3 and the repair was free as I was still under warranty.
