well im new to the ps2 world but not to electronics.
i bought a new ps2 from a retail store. with the new date code on it, its a slim v12 btw
i ordered the chip from modchip.com it came with the neofix xiii and wiring. i used a new soldering iron 15W and new low temp solder as well as flux.
i did take pics before and after the install too
nothing crimped on re-asembly and all connections were good
on first turn on it booted a store bought game fine, as normal
then switched to backed up of the same game and got the rsod stating incorrect disc type
so i researched yet again and found i needed to DL and burn a cd-r with the elf file etc. well i dunno much about it but i did that. and upon loading it just went to the basic ps2 screen like if theres no disc. and from then on would not do anything other then bring up that screen,
i figured out that the disc was no longer spinning at all.
so on that note i disassembled the ps2 again and checked all wires.
and read more into the sensitivity of each wire.
re-ruted a few wires and re-heated the connections.
put it back again and tried only to find i only got a black screen. no nothing.
dis-asembled again and found th O wire crimped under a bottom plate screw. removed and replaced that wire and put it together again.
now it again brings up the basic ps2 screen for the memory card and the setup but the disc still wont read, if you hit X it says reading disc for two flashed then stops. and if i hit reset a few times once in a while it will flash reading disc 8-10 times then it says cannot read...
it still will not do anything but bring up the ps2 screen ever since the very first turn on where it loaded the game Juiced. and all i did was flip the top swap discs to the copy and close it then hit reset.
so whats the deal experts???
i can see the laser working when i run it without the top. and Somtimes the disc spins.
so whats at fualt here?
what was the original problem making it not run?
whats the actual problem now?
and what do i need to do to fix it?
im copying this whole post and posting on dms forum, afterdawn forums, and emailing it to modchip.com support.
