    When I was a kid years ago my Lil sister at the time was running around outside not paying attention when she dropped my PS2 onto the concrete below from the staircase it was resting on which was a good 15-20 ft. I got so pissed at her for that and yet it STILL works even to this day. They were definitely built to last. Granted it looks very rough and should probably buy another however it used to belong to my dad when I was born and he gave it to me as I grew older. (Was born the same year PS2 came out)

    • @ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL
      @ToolsAndStuffOFFICIAL  4 роки тому +2

      If you had an original chunky PS2 like in the video and not a slim one, then the warranty would be long finished. That unit was 13 years old when that video was made. Sony stopped all production of PS2's in 2012 and stopped selling them in 2013. You would have had to have purchased the last one and buy an extended 5 year warranty for the warranty to expire in 2018.

      @@johnproudlock2900 Yeah right.
      You can do it without opening the tray, but you'll need more force because of the magnet in the top clamp. So yeah, if the tray is stuck, just remove the cover. But if it isn't, it will be easier to remove with the tray open.

  •  Рік тому

    Hey guys,
    I'm having problem with the worm motor of the disc drive. It's not moving the laser back and forth and I have no idea why. The plastic teeth are making contact, the gear is greased enough, the laser lights up but nothing moves.
    It was moving a couple of days ago before I tried to adjust the potentiometer to be able to read CDs again as the laser was only reading DVD. (so I don't think it's the ribbon, I was really really careful)
    I tried also to adjust the laser height with the gear at the top but nothing worked.
    I'm confused, even if the laser would be dead it would still move back and forth, right?
    Besides it still lights up, and the disc is still spinning when inserted... Have no idea what's the issue here.
