Default 02 RX300 DVD NAV 'Disk Not Detected'

Hi,

Can you tell me where did you buy PPN13KA12C. I've looked al over the inet and I can't find it.

Thanks.

Remove the two ribbon strips and power connecter located on the back of that section. After doing so you can remove that entire section. Remove the four housing screws in the four corners, Turn the unit over. Now you can begin removing the data board. Remove the attached ribbons perspectively. Don't be afraid to untape the black tap from the board to remove the wrap under ribbon, it will restick. Now, on the section holding the laser, laser motor, and cd motor, there are 3 screws to remove. Once removed you can now take the laser portion out. Remove the ribbon for ease of labor. The issue is in fact the motor NOT THE LASER! I've located them by doing a simple search on the web for the motor model: PPN13KA12C. I paid 2.10 plus shipping. Removed the laser motor from the end housing clip. You'll need to get a small solder gun from a craft store (ie. Radio Shack) and remove the wires from the old motor and solder them to the new one. Move the gear from the old one to the new one. Reassemble, attach all ribbons, and reinstall back in your prospective vehicle location. Start your vehicle, reinsert the Navigation DVD. You'll be a happy camper and best of all the fix is completed in less than an hour and you've spent less than 10.00. I personally purchased a few of these motors for security purposes, just in case the event should occur once again. Once again, thank you everyone! Hope this helps the rest of you!!

I have searched every other day and even contacted couple eBayer who sales mini motors but no love. One eBayer told me he had a few before but all gone the day he made the post.

I am thinking about taking apart of a Panasonic stereo with busted laser to see if the motor is the same.

I got really lucky and found someone who had that motor in stock. That seller is out and based on the posts - no one else has this motor. If anyone can find a source or equivalent - please let us all know. Thank you!

Thanks for all of the tips. It all worked out. I did it myself. One has to be very careful doing all of this. Also, the optical encoder wheel at the end of the worm gear of the motor has to fit in between at the bottom slot. Mine was rubbing against the edge and I got the famous "NO DISK DETECTED" message again. Had to take it apart again thinking it will never work again and I noticed the problem. Thanks God I didn't burn the motor. The motor itself is very hard to get. I was lucky, but I shopped for it for weeks. Hansen Motors wants you to order like $3,000.00 worth of motors.

You're not gonna believe this, but I just yanked a PPN13KA12C out of an old CD-ROM drive from a junked computer laying around my house! Considering that the CD-ROM drive spent most of its active life empty, I'm sure this motor has very few miles on it compared to the one in the ECU DVD. This was a no-brand generic Japanese-made CDROM from 1996 so if you have something similar cluttering your basement, you may be in luck.

You guys absolutely rock for figuring this fix out! I was ready to throw in the towel and velcro a TomTom over my LCD. Thanks!

Update: I just finished the repair and it works!! This may be the first time I actually was right for keeping broken electronics around for over 10 years. My old motor didn't seem completely toasted now that I've popped it open, but replacing it did the trick so I guess that was the problem.

Thanks; I've been trying to get one of these to keep on hand for quite a while.

Too late. Even though I ordered one as soon as that post was made, I just received a note back saying "sold out."
Bummer!
