OK, My name is ryan and i really screwed up. took apart my console to clean it thinking it would fix my DRE (didn't do my research and didn't know the easy fix) put it all back together and the disk doesn't spin and those little lights that spin just close up into a ball. So now that i screwed up my V5 ps2 i bought 1 from my friend.
A fairly bad treaten ps2 but just had DRE and now that i knew it was so easy to fix i bought it for $15. Got that working but here is what puzzles me. I took it apart to see if the ribbon cables were the problem on my old ps2 (they were stripped but i didn't know about those clip holders,. wasn't the problem) I put it all back together except the cd drive box and all booted ok. lights were spinning, saw the video and heard the audio, did it once more 2 b sure. once more to get my hopes up.......and...... no video or sound.
What happened? what went wrong in that short of time of pressing the reset button 3 times? N e way i tried combining the two of the(after i researched everything) and still nothing. now i came here in hopes that you can solve my problem. Doesn't a 13 year old deserve a working ps2? Pleeeezzzzzzz Help!!!!

Sorry 4 the life story. My thinking.... more info....better understanding.....better and faster solution to my problem if there even is one. Thanks

REPLACE that fuse or your going to burn down your house by briging it. P11 is 1.2Amp SMD fuse replace with same type or your going to have fireworks!!!
