My Lexus Sat Nav DVD reader that resides in the boot has suddenly stopped being able to read/play the DVD. I've got a Lexus IS 200 (2002/3 model). Anyone know how or where to fix DVD reader?

Sadly I am unable to help you, but am writing to ask if you found anyone who could mend the sat nav as I have a 2002 model and I think the laser has gone.

I tried this method u suggested but mine still isnt working what else can I try?
Is there anything else that maybe causing this problem?

try this first disconnect the negative batt lead from main car batt then remove the connectors from the unit and leave it for 30 min then reconnect the unit then the batt lead and try it this will reset the unit have seen this happen on lots of toyotas and it is the same system in the lexus as lexus is made by toyota if it dont work just get a new unit have seen them for sale on ebay cheap or any electrical repair shop can do it as it is only a dvd player could tell u how to fix the player but will take to long the lazer voltage prob needs turning up as the lazer goes weak hope this helps
