    Hi all,

    My friend just given me his ps2 slimline v13 to see if it is fixable, just thought i would ask here to see if any one knows the possible fix

    You switch the ps2 on, its works a treat, but the laser and motor for the cd does not spin, the laser shines red for a second then stops, it then shines again for another second, this carries on

    does any one know about this with a possible fix?

    Thanks in advance

    Rik.

    Try replacing the tracking and focus coil resistors and the laser head. It should fix you up.
