I'm in the middle of a repair attempt on a BDR-XS07 drive that doesn't respond at all when plugged in. I'm still tracing power to confirm it's getting everywhere it needs to go, but I'm hoping someone can shed some light on flashing the bios chip out of circuit in case power is all good and this was just a bad flash - I have a programmer, but i'm curious if these drives need the ROM chip flashed and maybe also some additional stuff flashed beside the mx eeprom on the board?

Currently the board isn't recognized at all when you plug it in, but i've been able to confirm the main fuse appears to be good, still need to trace it to the rest of the chips with datasheets. If anyone has any details that might prove helpful, any direction would be appreciated 😀

Hoping @coopervid might pop in here... 😀
Flashing is just software based in Windows. You seem to have a hardware problem and so flashing can't help.

Lithium based products have taken over these applications almost entirely.
I also suggest Lithium based grease just in case they use brushed motors.

Re: All Pioneer drives will be LibreDrive supported

What do you use to grease the drive belt ? You don't grease the belt it would slip The rails and motor shaft you can use silicone paste it the safest and non reactive but really not needed for many years Billy- are these motors brushless types? If not, something containing silicone is the worst you...
