    You can't. If the little white button had fallen off the switch, you could use a wireless remote control to get the system out of standby.

    It's the white reset cable that is damaged?

    Are you referring to the cable that leads from the reset circuit board to the motherboard?

    if so, why not just get another cable???

    To start the PS2 (any model) without the power buttons, just short the matrix infinity "reset" point to GND for a small time...
    SCPH-10000_GH-001 SCPH-15000_GH-003 SCPH-18000_GH-008 SCPH-30001_GH-005 SCPH-30000_GH-016(V4) SCPH-30001_GH-010(V4)
    2xSCPH-10190, 2xSCPH-10350, 2xSCPH-10280
