PS2 doesn't work after Laser replacement
Hi!
First of all I want to excuse my hopefully not so bad English!
When I modded my PS2 with a Crystal Chip I used the Diode-Fix. Few weeks ago I heard about the SummOne's fix which should be better for the laser unit.
So I tried to apply it to my PS2. Unfortunately I burned one 30k resistor and so the laser unit melted :(
Then I ordered a new laser unit and new 30k resistors. Today I got everything needed to repair it.
I replaced the laser unit and all 30k resistors like you can see in the attached picture (to get sure I didn't burn another too).
After turning on the (I thought so) repaired console I recognized that the inserted disc doesn't spin and instead of the Crystal boot menu there is the Sony screen (like unmodded PS2 when there is no disc in it).
I hope you can help me finding out why this is so.
Regards, MK
