🎮 Playstation 2 Repair. Drive repair in 5 minutes 🎮 

A HUGE THANK YOU to You!!! I'm a 62 year old woman who Loves my Video Games and I was So Disappointed that I couldn't get it to open. With your help I took the screwdrivers out and did what you said and it's working like a charm!! SUBSCRIBED!!!!

"Your warranty is long finished trust me" lol I'm dying

I had a PS2 Fat with a bad power board and while I was fixing it I saw a disk in the disk drive, now the prideful owner of GTA San Andreas! Great tutorial!

Guys like you bring happiness to the world, my old PS2 slim is now working and I've got Midway Treasures going - Defender and things! Timesplitters too, Atari Anthology - thank you! Best wishes from London!

It worked!! Many thanks. With self isolation my 15 year old can now see these historic games.

What an easy to follow and helpful video. Got a ps2 for $7 at goodwill and was disappointed to find what I thought was a broken disc drive. Thanks a mil for the fix!!!

just wanna say, before i even finish watching, glad to know theres still awesome people that still love one of the top 5 best games (not just gameplay(gameplay maybe not top 5 but wutevs), but stories as well) ever. kudos to u brother

You are an absolute legend for this. Saved me hours of stress and frustration. And now I can play Gran Turismo in peace. Thank you!!!!

Just did this today and now works perfectly thank you so much I get to enjoy my PS1 and PS2 games again 👍

brill managed to get mine up and running again, and also gave it a nice clean while I was at it

Thank you so much I had the exact same problem and searched lots of places to try and find how to fix it and your video was perfect

You…are a God..7 years later and a broken Laser now fixed, bent just a little and knocked it down a few notches like you said and works perfectly, there’s still some sounds ofc but a quick reset and it’s cool, time for modding 🤘🏾🤘🏾

This totally worked, thanks!

Massive help thank you!!!

I will look at this video couple of times but appreciate the work

My man 🙌. Thank you

I know it's an old vid, but thanks for uploading it. Helped me out today repair an old ps2 found in a storage tote. Appreciate you.

I need help on wut kinda small screwdriver to use to take the thing off above the disk

my disc driver stack there ( was not a cd reading problem) i ve done what you showed and it worked again. Thanks a lot for your help! xd

It works! Thanks 😊

This helpful video really helps but, I'm finding issues during the fix up and the disc tray doesnt want to fully extend out even when the cover is off and I tried pulling on it and it gave a clicking sound, can you help me with this?

Thank you Buddy I am facing the same Noise, first-time in 12 yrs. I have taken good care of my PS2 Blackone. I pray this works for me.

do u need to add wd40 to it do u need to inrcrese the dvd lenses and spin power if u put modchip

Just fixed my PS2 thank you.

question will I damage the disc tray if I physically use use my finger to close it instead of the eject button? I also eccedently press the eject button and stop the disc tray half way it closed on its own am worried?

Hey, I'm having the same issue where the laser wont travel back and forth, I tried what you recommanded but it's not working and I don't know what to do. It's a fat as well, but I think the disc drive is an older model, wish I could show you a picture

How big is the front of the dvd drive

The magnet doesn't even move for me. I don't understand what's causing it to not spin.

The SCPH-3900# is the most reliable fat version, the 3000# is the worst followed by the 5000# that this particular model seems to be

Yo my ps2 has a problem with the rails the laser is on. The laser can’t move reliably. How to fix that

Hey guys, I'm having problem with the worm motor of the disc drive. It's not moving the laser back and forth and I have no idea why. The plastic teeth are making contact, the gear is greased enough, the laser lights up but nothing moves. It was moving a couple of days ago before I tried to adjust the potentiometer to be able to read CDs again as the laser was only reading DVD. (so I don't think it's the ribbon, I was really really careful) I tried also to adjust the laser height with the gear at the top but nothing worked. I'm confused, even if the laser would be dead it would still move back and forth, right? Besides it still lights up, and the disc is still spinning when inserted... Have no idea what's the issue here.

What if the tray doesnt come out when the cover is off

Thanks

When I removed the disc reader cover it goes out just fine, but when I put it back on its stuck...

Its a major importance to mention the exact type of screw driver to open the lid of the laser. What kind of philips in mm since as you said a fine philips doesn't tell the exact type? My fine philips is too big and I already started to strip the tiny tiny screws.

When u took the top off what screw driver did u use for the small screws

it feels like my PH0 is still too big to get those two screws holding the tray top down, it wont grip in

When I was a kid years ago my Lil sister at the time was running around outside not paying attention when she dropped my PS2 onto the concrete below from the staircase it was resting on which was a good 15-20 ft. I got so pissed at her for that and yet it STILL works even to this day. They were definitely built to last. Granted it looks very rough and should probably buy another however it used to belong to my dad when I was born and he gave it to me as I grew older. (Was born the same year PS2 came out)

I have the same problem, have opened and bent the tab and all that, no go, I press the button the laser squeezes onto, still no go. Nothing helps :/

What can i do if my ps2 wont read games and spins for half a second then stops?

4:37 easy for you mate when you can press a button for that disc hold thingy to slide out, mine wont come out, what now ?

You are a hero! Wooohooo im back to gaming!

If it ripped the paper thingy by accident does the ps2 fat console still works or no?

My disc won’t spin any solutions?

Classic' 🔥

is there a fix to laggy games i recently bought gta sa and its really really laggy maybe 10fps. I remember it being smooth growing up any fix?

I recommend that you open the disc tray before removing the top cover of the tray. It will be easier to remove.

Hi~!朋友，请问蓝色LED灯一直不亮是什么问题？可以给与我帮助吗？

the warranty wasnt actually long gone in 2016, it ended in 2018!

Don't work for me but thanks for sharing.👍

and sadly that issue wasnt the same as mine😑 thanks for the video tho

why the laser drive doesn't move at all, sir?

taking the lid off and not having the ribbon attached has nothing to do with the color of the console. its the difference between the 3000 and 5000 series versions of the ps2

Would like to actually see how to remove the laser. Everyone else who removes it has a different model and I'm afraid I'm goings break it. I'm about to just chuck the system against a fucking wall.

When I go to open the tray it doesn't even try to open, is there any ways you could help me out with this please?

My game reads to the 1st screen then just spins. Help

my disc tray is going slowly open and close i like something is in its way is it the same issue? anybody knows?

I did all of that and the teeth are catching but discs still ain't reading

Now I just need to find out how to fix the video out

Mine has two wires out

Mine got Drowned in a flashflood so what ill do

No luck so probably going to have to spend the $15 USD for a new plastic white part. I assume it's worn down too much but it was literally working fine one day and not even 24 hours this happens.

What do I do if my PS2 doesn’t even turn on anymore? I tried to trouble shoot and nothing. I don’t want to give up on it yet? Is it the power source? Can someone tell me what the reason is? The PS2 is still preety new still, I hardly used it, 🙄

The motor won't spin anyone knows how to fix it

Light nhi on hori

Do not use power tools on ur console

But... I'm still paying extended warranty

Looks at video length 7 minutes 🤔

light dab of wd-40 also works
