Good luck getting it out of the heatsink liteon drives are the worst. they have short open can diodes. don't know much more about them :-/ lolGaldor said:Woohoo!!! A friend just happened to have a DVD Burner that stopped working which he gave me.
Hopefully not a problem with the diode. Anyway, it is a LiteOn LH-18A1P 18x Burner. If the diode
is infact good how much current should I provide an 18x diode? I don't want to push it too hard because
I would like it to last. I still don't have my DMM back up and runnin but should tomorrow hopefully. Any advice
would be much appreciated.

Could you measure the breakdown voltage of your blown diode? Just wondering if the value would be the same as a non blown one.. Hopefully your DMM has a diode measurement mode.

Galdor said:I finally got my DMM going. Looks like the breakdown voltage on my blown diode is 1.525 volts.
Dont know if it matters or not but the diode was still connected to my circuit when I took the reading.
