Drive not spinning with media inserted

xboxps2 · 03-20-2003,01:28 PM

Hi all,

PS2 NTSC/US V4 GAP // No modchip installed (NEVER)

My PS2 did not open so I change the BA5815FM and now it works but ...

NO media inserted, the drive is spinning
WITH media inserted, the drive is spinning a quater of a turn.
Looks like, the drive is not enought strong to turn

I check the connectivity between the console and the laser unit OK.
I swap with another laser unit, same problem.
So the problem is on the motherboard

It looks like the BA6664FM is controlling the disc spin.
I try to get the documentation from rohm but only get it in japanese

If somebody has the same problem. I can measure everything.
I've got scope, multimeter, etc...

Where can I order a BA6664FM??

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

This topic is well covered in this forum. Please search on BA66.

As I told, a running spare drive was put into the machine and same behaviour

Also, heat pad are always installed

Regarding the rohm doc on the BA6664, I checked every connection between the laser assembly and the drive: OK

Does anybody has that problem earlier ??
Any fix ??

Still working on it.
Where can I find a replacement BA6664
