I got an hitachi 0059 which appearred to have a shot laser.. so I replaced unit, taking care to install the correct model laser, remove solder bridge, connect ribbon carefully. Re-installed to 360 and found out the diode isn't turning on so its not picking up the discs. Tried 3 new lasers and old laser.. all the same.. powers on, drive moves correctly, laser bobs up and down, but diode/laser eye don't energize so it will not pickup any disc.

Was flashed with 2.1, removed and restored original firmware to the unit thinking 2.1 could be an issue.. no difference. Any help would be appriciated!

Had same problem with a 360 drive...and an Xbox 1 drive...did exactly what you did, and same problem - I think it came down to a chip or a capacitor :/
