so, I'm in the process of repairing a version 15 PS2 slim for a friend, but I have absolutely no idea where to go from here.
When the unit is turned on, the green light comes on, but there is no picture. It also begins spinning a disc, but ceases within the first few seconds of turning the thing on. Both the power supply and video cables have been checked with another working PS2 and are functioning properly
I've checked all of the marked fuses that are on the board, and they seem to be functioning properly.
The only discolored part on the board appears to be a surface mount capacitor, but I don't see how this could be causing the main problem as it is in series with a pin on the ethernet socket and has never gone online. It's a surface mount capacitor directly above the ethernet jack along the bottom row.
No, the system has never been modded. Infact, I think this is the second time it has been opened (the first if any at all was probably at a game store due to the missing screws and an untouched warranty sticker)
anyone have any ideas as to the cause of this problem or know where I can get ahold of a board/part layout for this particular version?
