Wii making loud grinding sound and ejects disc
I have an old Wii (at least 12 years old) that I’ve occasionally had the same problem with. Strangely, it happened several months ago but not a couple months after that, and it had no problems yesterday but had this problem today.
When I insert a disc, it makes a very loud grinding sound and then ejects the disc after a few seconds. It then pulls the disc back in, makes the same loud grinding sound, and then ejects it again. There are NO error messages and this happens with all discs.
I’m guessing this is just a hardware issue regarding the disc drive, or maybe there’s stuff stuck in there. Does anyone know what I should be looking for if I end up taking it apart? Or should I just try to replace the disc drive? I have no experience with tech repair but I know there are some pretty good guides.
Alternatively, does anyone know if there are places that still repair Nintendo Wii?
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

My Wii does the same thing!
When I put a disc in, it makes a sound, ejects it, then takes it back in and makes a sound before ejecting it again. Now and then, I put a disc in, and it will work, but it does the same thing again after that. One day I was playing, and stupid me turned off the console mid-way through the game, which seemed to mess something up.
