AUDIOVOX DVD-168 PLAYER

Question

The player will not read the disc. I have done my best to clean the laser. It still spins but does not recognize that a disc is in. It spins it without a problem, but never reads that the disc is there.

This is an old unit and none are available. My problem is that this goes in a console in my car so the size of the unit going in the console is a perfect unique fit.

How can I repair the laser eye? I suspect that the eye has gone bad.
Thanks,
Greg
