My laser does move when I close and open the lid which makes me think that this issue has nothing to do with the lid. The other thing is that from what I understand, as long as the laser moves when you close the lid, that should indicate that the PS2 detects a closed lid. (you can see a photo of what mine looks like here 't+find+the+back+lid+sensor+of+my+ps2#answer436953) But a) mine worked fine today until after I replaced the laser so seems unlikely, but also b) where is it? I think that maybe my model is a newer design and perhaps the back sensor was removed because it is absolutely not where people say it is. I know that a common issue is with the back-left lid sensor and people often short it. I also made sure the ribbon cable was fully inserted. I purchased this laser which is supposed to be compatible with my model number: Then when installing, I made sure the soldered connection was cleaned up as instructed so that there were 3 distinct contact points with no residue between them. Important to note that before replacing the laser, that discs would at least spin, and it could even read CD's just not DVD's or PS2 games. First of all, why are we forced to use a "mega thread"? We can't attach photos this way?Īnyway, so I was having issues with the original laser in my PS2 Slim and after trying everything determined that the laser needed to be replaced.
