Sometimes someone will have somethhing sticky on their fingers when they press the power reset button and cause it to glue in place. What you have to do is Remove the screw covers, and 6 screws from the bottom of the slim. These covers are square and one is under the warranty sticker. Tow of the rubber pad feet will remove to expose the screws. Use a knife to pry up the covers. Two of the rubber feet do not remove, they are the ones closest to the front. Open the case, and check to see if you can clean up the power switch button. It is attach to the top half. no problem getting the plastic top half wet when you clean it.

I may not be the laser asembly or anything you described because absolutely nothing happened when you put a disc in. I may be a little switch at the very front of the drive right at the bottom right (near the power button) that may be damged or not being pressed by an piece of plastic on the same place on the lid. That switch recognises if the lid is closed or not so it know when to stop or start a disc. Try closing the lid harder or pushing more on that switch. hope that helps!

Dispose of it the motor for the disc spiner is done

My power button got jammed as well and I used a small flat head screwdriver to pop it out and it was fine. If that doesn't work you might want to tack it to a video game repair shop or try to open it and see if the button broke off and is keeping the button inside the system.

Hi, Although The repair is not difficult but i suggest you to contact an expert repair man so that to avoid further damages.Thanks

There are so many problems that can cause the ps2 to not work it may the power cord the power board if its a new version so try to find which of these have the problems and replace it if its a problem with the mother board then you may have to spend some dollars well you said you washed it? Well its quite disturbing to hear but try to give some heat to the console and take them to sonys repair shop if youre lucky it may survive so good luck

I had the same problam and i fixed it. Open your disk lid, and at the back on the right there's a small white bit touching the disk. You can push it back and it will spring forward again. Get a tiny bit of tape and stick it back but make sure there is no tape near where the disk will spin. Free and worked for me.

I found the solution.

OK. First of all, put any disc in and turn on the PS2. Push the spot shown here down with something about the size of the TV end of the AV cable.

Watch what it does. Does it stop spinning? If so, see this pic

1. This keeps the disc from spinning when the cover is open.
2. push this down while following the instructions from the first pic. Does the disc work?
3. There's usually a small object that pushes #2 down. Chances are it broke off.

This piece here is what broke off on my PS2 as seen in the previous image. If you can find some way to glue it back on, you should be back in business.

Hey, I am having this problem, did you ever fix it? How? I really want to play but cant!

The ticking might be coming from the laser itself. It might be getting too closer to the disc and trying to go farther than it is possible. With the disc out, push the laser from the side all the way away from the center and make the console think that the lid is closed. This may take a few tries before it works. If the problem does not seem like it is coming from the laser you may have a stripped wire that is sparking and should be taking in to be repaired. The latter is possible but VERY rare.

Try plugging the system into a known working outlet and also try reseating the power cord.

If after you do these steps you can't get the system to turn on then the main board is bad and you would have to get a new system since the cost of a main board would exceed the cost of a new system.
