Well, if you’re getting Disc Read Errors\u003cbr\u003eon multiple discs, all of which appear to be in good condition, then you most likely have\u003cbr\u003eone of two common problems. Either your laser is being obstructed by dirt and dust, or\u003cbr\u003ethe laser’s voltage is not properly adjusted.\u003cbr\u003ePlease Note: That I have written this for people with little or no knowlege of electronics.\u003cbr\u003eWARNINGS:\u003cbr\u003eThe Playstation 2 is a precise gaming console. Fixing the console yourself should not be\u003cbr\u003edone unless completely necessary. You may also risk electric shock, so do anything\u003cbr\u003ewithin your power to remain safe while attempting these repairs.\u003cbr\u003eIf you can, use an anti-static wrist band to ground yourself. This device is available at any\u003cbr\u003eelectronics store (e.g. Radio Shack.)\u003cbr\u003eThese repairs require opening the case, which WILL void your warranty. If your console\u003cbr\u003eis still under warranty think twice about cracking the seal.\u003cbr\u003eAdjusting the laser’s voltage requires some precision, being too rough can cause damage\u003cbr\u003ewhich you will not be able to fix. Be very careful when doing this process!!! Be prepared\u003cbr\u003eto pay Sony over $120 to fix this part if you damage it!!!\u003cbr\u003eAlways attempt the laser CLEANING before trying to adjust the voltage!!!!!!\u003cbr\u003eDIAGNOSTIC MODE:\u003cbr\u003eThis is the easiest thing you can do to attempt to fix your PS2, while it hardly ever works\u003cbr\u003eit only take a minute or two, and should be done first before you take apart your machine.\u003cbr\u003e1) You must be in the \"main menu\" screen of the PS2 console, the first screen that comes\u003cbr\u003eup when you start with no disc in.\u003cbr\u003e2) press the \"triangle button\"\u003cbr\u003e3) Select \"Console\" from the top using the up directional buttons and press the \"Triangle\"\u003cbr\u003ebutton\u003cbr\u003e4) Select \"On\" using the up and down directional buttons and press the \"X\" button\u003cbr\u003e5) Insert a disc. The console automatically starts the diagnosis.\u003cbr\u003eCLEANING THE LASER:\u003cbr\u003eRequired Materials:\u003cbr\u003e-Normal phillips head screwdriver\u003cbr\u003e-Small phillips head screwdrivver\u003cbr\u003e-Q-Tip\u003cbr\u003e-Rubbing Alcohol (Isopropyl)\u003cbr\u003eOptional Materials:\u003cbr\u003e-Can of Air\u003cbr\u003e-Butter knife\u003cbr\u003eTaking the PS2 apart is fairly simple, nothing too complicating. All that you’re basically\u003cbr\u003egoing to do is remove the upper shell, remove the lens cover, clean the lens, and put\u003cbr\u003eeverything back together again. Just be sure to follow the steps, and read through each\u003cbr\u003estep and understand it before going through with it. Sometimes the instructions may seem\u003cbr\u003ea little too in depth or complicating, but just use your common sense and you should\u003cbr\u003eunderstand. It’s a lot easier if you print it out, as well.\u003cbr\u003e1. Make sure that you have a neat, clean area set aside for taking the PS2 apart. A small\u003cbr\u003ebox or cup to put screws in. Flip your PS2 over so that the bottom (horizontally) is facing\u003cbr\u003eup. There should be 6 screw covers, 4 plastic and 2 rubber, that need to be removed. You\u003cbr\u003ecan use the butter knife for this. Screws should be uncovered under them. There should\u003cbr\u003ebe 2-4 more screw covers on the outer side of the base, underneath the controller ports\u003cbr\u003e(where the system goes out a few inches from the base). The older model PS2’s have 4\u003cbr\u003escrew covers, while the newer ones have only 2. Remove them all, and you should now\u003cbr\u003ehave a total of 8-10 screws unveiled. Set the screw covers aside.\u003cbr\u003e2. Using the normal sized phillips head screwdriver, remove all of the screws.\u003cbr\u003eREMEMBER where the longer screws go. If you do not remember where the long\u003cbr\u003escrews go, you could put a hole through a circuit board by trying to force the long screw\u003cbr\u003ein where it is not supposed to be. Make sure all of the screws are removed, and put them\u003cbr\u003easide.\u003cbr\u003e3. The PS2 shell should now be ready to remove. ONLY the UPPER side (with the PS2\u003cbr\u003elogo) needs to be removed to clean the lens - Leave the BOTTOM side on.
