Cross-posting on several forums; I hope that's ok.
I have an LG model RC288 combination VCR and DVD RW. The VCR works fine, but the DVD won't play. I can insert a disk, and there's a brief spin, but that's all. No spin-up.
AI thinks this is a laser problem, and I'm looking for a replacement laser sled assembly. The current unit doesn't have any part number marking on it. Electrical interface is via a 45-pin flat cable.
I found this part on AliExpress; it has the same connector, looks quite similar to my existing part, and is specified for LG DVD RW drives.
My questions:

My questions:
- 1. Does this sound like a laser problem?
- 2. Is the AliExpress part a drop-in replacement for my unit?
