  • On my trip to find stuff to restore at the local junk market, I saw this PS1 console in this bad condition, I decided to restore it and give it a new chance to live again.
    PS1 Model: SCPH-7502
    SONY Playstation 1 SCPH-7502 Region Free PS1
    Region of Manufacture: JAPAN
    During the disassembly, I found the remains of a spider and a spider nest. It's very common I find bugs inside these old devices, I'm, not sure why, maybe they're dark and warm places.
    When I tested the console, I noticed the green power LED didn't light up. After opening the console, I replaced the capacitors with new ones. I also cleaned the boards with dust and isopropyl alcohol.
    I then washed the plastics in soapy water to remove all grime and grease in preparation for the next step which was to soak them in Cream Peroxide Developer 40 Volume and UV light for several days to remove the years of yellowing that has taken place, This process is also known as retr0brite.

Things like that should of had those on the shell, because that's what makes old consoles look old after being used for many years. Also he's putting in a copied disc of the game Crash Bandicoot and not a official PS1 game into the console.

      Wrong original ps1 had no analogs whatsoever. So we know that controller is not a slim controller. Its an old og fat ps1 controller, 2 the light is on but its very dim. You can observe this if you were to adjust your brightness on your device to the lowest settings and you will see a dim green. Not trying to say its not a fake but the observations are not correct but it is fishy how he cut off on the bootup sequence when he first fixed it.
