Unhappy D2pro9v2 v4c clip - Not reading disks

I am installing a new d2pro9v2 with a pre-soldered v4c wii-clip into a d2c Wii (not d2c2). Originals and backups do not seem to load. The led's light red then blue momentarily when a disk is first inserted. I can repeatably insert and eject disks properly. When I insert a disk the drive spins up and I believe I hear a brief access of the disk but after that nothing happens and the drive stops spinning. If I click on the "disk channel" no disk access occurs. Upon removing the mod everything works fine. It is likely I am doing something incorrectly. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks.

Like this?
Guy in the US is having issues and made the video for me
Im trying to figure it out....its the same sound that a wiikey or something make when you insert a international disc without hacing region override on.....
I think somehow, the region settings are fked up. Because the modchip light are exactly as they should be.
Not sure how the reigon gets messed up, and we never test with originals, onyl backups - which dont set the region.

I had the exact same problem. But for some reason, it just started working. I guess I'm not the only one.

OZMods told me to push the contact pins out. But I guess it's not a connection problem??

If mine suddenly started working I wouldn't mind.

Did you "push the contact pins out"? What does that mean? On the chip? On the clip?
I understand that I cannot put the wii-clip on and off too many times and expect it make decent contact. I expect my installation retries are limited.

I had the same problem. Three things I did that resolve my issues. 1. Make sure the wii-clip legs are not bridged. Bend them in place if they are. 2. Clear entire memory in the wii system. 3. Insert an original to set region. My d2pro didn't read the original the first time. I just left it in there for 2 mins n it started to work. Then all my backups started to work...

The only problem I have now is the inching problem with one of my wii d2c2 system

OK, seems like I am also having the same problem. I got the chip in today, with the WiiClip already attached. The CLK is jumped on the clip, the chip blinks for a quick second when the Wii is powered on, the Blue then the Red, but neither stay solid. Unit will play the originals, but will not play the backups. When I power off, and restart, same thing. I pulled the clip, and checked the pins, I pulled a couple out, they looked like they were sitting to far in. But it didn't feel "clicked" in though, but seeing as the lights go on, I would assume it's getting some power. Is it the chip, is it the Wii?

Default Maybe is the media?

For myself and the two others below we cannot even read originals. You may be lucky enough to just be having a media/burning issue. The behavior you are seeing may be correctable by using a different media (the consensus is to use Verbatims) or the wrong speed (slower is not necessarily better). Good luck.

That's exactly what it was, just a media issue, or so I hope, I was able to use the Config disc to update the firware to 1.4. It was able to see a backup.

Hopefully it was just a matter of pulling the pins out just a little further
