ps3 phat drive not reading disks

[phezo]

neighbour gave me a ps3 phat to look at as its not reading discs, he also forgot to mention that it wouldnt take in discs, i managed to fix the latter fault. i've noticed that the disc doesnt spin at all. do i need to replace the full laser motor mechanism, if so does anyone know a good place to buy them.
