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)  |
Cheaper to buy a new unit. |
