Laser assembly spindle with ribbon cable. This is discounted because the holographic sticker on top is not in good condition. The item is tested and working it is just a cosmetic flaw.

Troubleshooting guide:

It is very unlikely the spindle is the reason for no disc spin. The likely cause is a bad laser head or laser board. This item is appropriate to install if your spindle is seized, rusted, or has disc wabble when spinning.

The gamecube will not initiate disc spin unless it has a successful initial disc read from the laser head.
