Hey guys, Im having a bit of problem that I have been searching around for but cant seem to find anything specific. All I find are DRE problems but this isnt one of those.

Ok, Slimline PS2 not modded except for the magic key's swap method. PS2 never had a problem. So I am playing a game the other day, And the PS2 just stops and goes back to the browser which says "No Data". So i pop it open....reset....same thing, "No Data". So i check a few things and what's odd to me is that it's not even spinning the disc if I keep the lid open I can check, As my keys are in place. The laser isnt moving at all on bootup and the disc wont spin on bootup.

So i left it be, The next day I decided to check it, and it worked fine like normal....for about 5 minutes....then the same thing happened.

I assume it's something like a fuse....or motor....or laser eye. But I dont want to spend the money and ifnd out it isnt then have to go through an RMA process.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, Thanks guys....peace.

It's not a fuse, and there are no circuit breakers, so that isn't the issue.

If it was the lense or the laser, it would try to spin the disk.

Sounds like the motor is gone...this is common with people that use swapmagic.

oh, that makes sense I guess considering how hard the swap magic stops the motor when it stops spinning the disc.

Hey thanks alot man, I dont know what I was saying with the circuit breakers, I typed it up real quick,.....talk about stupid lol.
