PS4 Two-year old PS4 slim's blu-ray drive apparently died on me without warning.

Got a CUH22xx in 2020, today the blu-ray disc drive stopped working. Unit is clean, no internal or external damages, laser is intact. Made a video showing the problem.

Disc drive reads DVDs just fine. It is BDs it can't read anymore. Been told it might be a fuse or the Renesas going bye bye. I imagine the disc unit needs to be replaced and this baffles me. Not even my OG PS3 fat died so quickly on me like that.

Any ideas? Thanks :)
 
FYI, before opening it up I had already tried:

- Going into safe mode > rebuilding database.
- Soft resetting.
- Placing the PS4 it vertically, flipping it upside down and so on.
- Soft tapping above the disc drive as the disc enters.

No cigar...
