Well stripped it down and heated up board with bog standard heat gun (was hot as f**k...lol).
Put it all back together and found i had nothing at all when pressing both eject/power button !!!
Checked power supply and had no 12v ? Had 5v ok.
Opened up power supply and noticed there is a relay that needs to energise to give 12v. Sorted pins on small plug on power supply and it kicked in ok.
Checked board and power contact and found i had slighly melted the small ribbon cable.
Just fitted new and it has booted up fine....
BUT when i put disc in it spins up and does not load ??

Good work on the dedication to the cause man.
Does it play DVD's? could be just the laser, I had a one that was a dual laser and that went just after a re-ball, bought some

Will try one now, i have opened the blu ray unit and can see a blue laser light and spinning up fine.
I also remember another ribbon cable on the board, not sure what it was for though, i could of easily of melted that one as well ?
They look normal when damaged by heat, it is only when unlug them that you can see slight damage/open circuit.
