Advice: go to your nearest pawn shop and buy a new one. They are relatively cheap.

What fell on it, and which part? The disc slot?

SOURCE: PS2 slim Power Problem - Light is red goes green but nothing else.

Hi Leostg,

 

I have seen this a couple of times.  Lightning or an overload has burned up the motherboard. Its not a fuse, its a fried Emotion Engine processor.   Best advice on dead motherboard is to probably total it unless you can get a low price motherboard replacement. My cost on a new motherboard for slim is about $55.  If you want it fixed, replace the motherboard.  Really you may be able to get another Slim for $55 or less. If you look on ebay  for another motherboard do not take any chances on used motherboards. Go for a broken slim model that will boot up but want read discs. When you get one that boots up, use its motherboard in your Slim.  This will be your best deal at getting your slim up and running once more.

Please give me a Solved vote. I believe you only get one vote and its locked.   I have put a lot into your solution and hope you will show appreciation by voting solved.

SOURCE: Ps2 slim will not power up

usually, there is a problem with a ribbon cable of power/reset switch. Try using a replacement ribbon of the same type.

SOURCE: ps2 not spinning correctly

The shaft of the spindle motor is bent. There is no way to straighten it out. I don't believe that this is available as a replacement part. The whole optical assembly needs to be replaced. This assembly will include this motor.

SOURCE: my ps2 slim is leaving rings on my games???????

I think the motor spindle is damaged , as the motor spindle holds the disc up or it could the lens assembly being misaligned which causes the lens to be angled and scratch the disc

i recommend you to look at the site http://www.forums.gamewinners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=513070#Basic%20servicing for servicing if possible (slimline is somewhere at the bottom)

PS2 slim 9xxxx psu broken

It could be that fact then here that your Playstation 2 console has died on you guys and the motherboard is not working anymore as well. You will have to buy a new Playstation 2 console.It would be more easier to buy another PS 2 console than to try and fix the one that is now broken.

Ps2 slim not working, though i know its getting a power source help?

I'm guessing that the PS 2 console that you have purchased could very well be broken. You should always buy from reputable sellers. Lukie Games and DKOldies and East starland games sells PS 2 consoles.You could try and get the PS 2 console that you have bought fixed from someone that repairs the old video game consoles.

Ps2 slim problems reading disc

After countless hours of tying to figure this out I went to the basics. This ps2 slim has 3 sensors and after all sensors are the key to making the machine work properly. After testing everything known to man I decided to go around the sensors by taping them all down. Low and behold when I cranked the ps2 slim up the disc now reads and plays perfectly.

PS2 slim model 77001 black screen no video no audio

look my friend the problem of your ps2 is something relationship with the bios, the bios is the program that run at start of your console (without the disc, the navigator menu) this problem is caused because tried to modify your console with some modchip and they do it wrong. Unfortunately your console can't be fixed for you, it has to be some expert in the area (not the guy who try to modify your ps2 of course) in the ps2slim is easy to reapir this things but in ps2 fat is no way back. BLACK SCREEN MEANS DEATH IN SONY CONSOLES, but your console can be fix. I'm from Guatemala.

PS2 Slim wont turn on

You might try a friends ps2 power supply of the same type to make shure it isnt the ps2 that is broken. If the friends power supply works, get a working one from ebay or something.
