version v12.0, v12.1, v12.2 or v13 and subzero question

**jenko** · 03-19-2006,05:22 AM

Look at bottom post it is a seperate question

i have a pstwo that i got from sony as a replacement (it is refurbished) the sticker was on the bottom like a v13 but being refurbished it could still be a v12. The mobo number is gh-035-41.

this is where the subzero fix should go

one of my multi meatres cant even mesure the resistance for some reson and the other can only read it when it is set to 200k (wateva that means)

the top one reads 67.9 and the botom one 68.3 which i guess means 683 which the subzero diagram says is a v12.1 am i right.

atached is the subzero diagram.
what is L1 on the diagram for coz it isnt on the fix. do u just install T1, T2 (no jumper), L2 , VDC and K and cut the cut point

dusnt matter about that lot now i figured it out i have a v12.1 (i didnt reolise it says 683 on the actual resistor lol)

im fine with soldering wires to chips and so on but that L2 point looks solid to do without bridging the 3 lines next to it. on pics iv seen it just looks like a big blob of solder

for me doing that fix was a lot harder then installing a chip. next time i do one il place the fix someware els and solder wires to the places

If you have three "dot´s" below the SMD´s then you have an early v12 every v13 I´ve seen have only two "dot´s" and the "sony mech-fix" on the top off the board next to the RS2004FS

what about the ones that have 01D resistor, two via's (dots) and no "sony fix". Is that a v12.2 ?

if it´s doesn´t have the sony fix I think I should go with the SumOne fix.Really don´t know cause every Ps2 here in Sweden is v13 or above for a long time now.

Are you shure it doesn´t have the fix on the topside of the board?
It is right next to the Rs2004Fs where the "VanDrunen" could be soldered

i just installed a mi into the v12 i put the fix on and twice it has frozen the the ps2 and made the off button not work. is this a bad install of chip or the mech fix saving ma lasers ass
