Fixing PS2

Posted in Personal by Thinh La @ Apr 17, 2005

I couldn’t understand why I can’t load any PS2 disc. It doesn’t matter what kind of disc (original or copy) I put into my console, all I got is broswer screen. I decided to open her up to see what’s going on with my version 6 PS2 since I was thinking that my mod-chip is probably fried. Everything looked OK, no burnt evidence or any kind. I wonder what the hell happen to my PS2 that I can’t even play original disc as well as copy disc.

After few hours of online searching vast resources about mod-chip. It came down to one simple solution that has nothing to do with mod-chip. It’s about the laser eye getting dirty and needing some clean-up. It’s an old PS2 for christ sake so pretty much the problem is the eye.

After cleaning the laser eye with some alcohol, my PS2 now plays like new. Happy me.
