I presume you mean the Laser.
All CD / DVD units have one (sometimes two) laser assembly. Generally they will emit laser light at their rated output for a certain amount of time (in the high hundreds or thousands of hours).
One person may use their unit very heavily and "wear" the laser out in only a year or so. Another person may use their unit rarely and "wear" the laser out in maybe a dozen years.

They do make a meter that can measure laser output power, but then you have to know your unit's specification.

Usually more economical to change whole laser assembly (or WHOLE PLAYER) Wink


Cheaper to buy a new unit.
