Since you have nothing to lose you could try opening the drive and cleaning the lens.
Open the recorder case and see if you can remove the 4 screws holding the top cover on, remove the cover and carefully clean the lens. Hope for good luck.

you may find a replacement drive for the model you have (but don't think so), but if you have the space save it someone may have the solution. Good Luck

To date I have had 1 DVD recorder APEX die, two DVD players die 1 Liteon, 1 Philips, 4 DVD burners die 1 hp, 3 Liteon.
