Pioneer DV 355 help

[Ren]

Hi there.

I have a Pioneer DV 355 DVD player that shows the symptoms of a failing
Optical pickup assembly.
Would someone know the part number or required details for replacement Laser
unit for this model.

I'm taking it that Pioneer use these drives through out most of there bottom
of the line players.

Any help would be appreciated.


Cheers

Ren

** Here in Aussie - virtually nobody gets DVDs repaired since it is
cheaper to buy a new one.

Prices start at $50 for a basic model from DSE.

Very nice ones sell for $100.

Hi phil..


Cheers for the reply..
Yes, i relise your point.
I just thought that like previous Laser optics i have replaced, that the
replacement for the pioneer may have been at a similar price.
$35.00, which isnt too bad..

** Big mistake to think that DVD laser assemblies are the same cost as CD
ones.

The one Pioneer type shown in the WES cat is $ 119.
