I restored this $7 Junk Playstation 2 Slim - Retro Console Restoration & Repair

- In this episode I restore a Playstation 2 (PS2) slim which I got for $7 as part of a junk lot of consoles. Low end price for working device is typically around $50. Black consoles can be cheaper because there are more of them available. As a bonus I got a free game, DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi, it's quite common game and even in good condition not very valuable. But it's a nice addition to my collection, here is a link to my video of repairing the disc: • Repair & restoration o...
I started the restoration by testing the console. I was able to power it on. I think it wasn't supposed to work but the descriptions for these consoles are quite often inaccurate. However it was not reading games.
After opening the console I tried to see if I could repair the disc drive. The Playstation 2 disc drive is known for breaking quite easily. The laser just stops working. I decided to replace the whole disc drive. Only the laser part can also be changed. After replacing the laser I still had to do a little adjusting on the screws I show on the video.
After replacing the drive I continued to disassemble the console. I cleaned everything with compressed air, soapy water and isopropyl alcohol and removed a little yellowing with UV-light and hydrogen peroxide. Tutorial to the process here: • How to remove yellowin...
The original model sticker was in bad condition so I copied it in photoshop and printed a new one.

Value dropped at least 60% when you didn't reapply the Finding Nemo sticker
I was hoping he would do that too. Was also looking for a green stripe to replicate whatever the heck was on it when he got it.
Great job, as always though.
I was expecting a new Nemo sticker. Oh well. Maybe the old one will show up on the back drop.

To go as far to even replace the serial sticker with a new one is a man who takes true pride in the perfectionist of repairs. Well done.
I'd pay for this service wish i could find it nearby 😂
It’s cheating.
Where did the decal come from?
Hey, thanks for your comment! Based on the article and your enthusiasm for tech, I think you might find the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule interesting. It's a versatile tool that offers powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, perfect for maintaining a spotless desktop, cleaning your car's interior, and even inflating items quickly.

Ah PS2 the best of my teenage years. A huge game changer for PlayStation, loved playing Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty on it. There weren't any KRplus tutorials for it back in 2003, if you got stuck on a mission it would trial and error but truly felt like a lifetime accomplishment when you did it by yourself.
Yes, Sons of Liberty was amazing!
We had to pray that we had some kind of tips and tricks page in a gaming magazine. Good times
Your videos are so quiet but yet so full of personality. I love watching you clean these old consoles. I’m a big fan of retro gaming and knowing someone’s out there fixing these things up makes me so happy!
I recently came across the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule and it has been a game-changer for cleaning my desktop and peripherals. The powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, as well as the compact size, make it perfect for maintaining a spotless environment. Plus, the added features like high-quality filters and swift keyboard cleaning are really handy. Definitely recommend checking it out!

This brings me back memories. When my PS2 broke because of the disk drive, my dad and i took it outside to fix it. It was really fun to see him fixing the device and putting it to run again.
I love this
I wish I kept my old phat PS2 when it stopped reading discs in 2009 or so.
Hearing that purr of it turning on after you cleaned it was so satisfying lol. Seeing go back to white was amazing to.
Also I never knew the logo could do that!!!!!
The PS2 “there is no disc” with the red color and spooky sounds was so terrifying as a kid. For one, it’s spooky. For second, you fear that your game is dead.
When i was Like a 6 or 8 yr old i didnt remember getting the rsod, and even if i did get one it wasnt scary at all.
@@subagaming2075 Having your game or console be potentially broken wasn't scary to you as a kid? It made me muster up all the hot breath I could along with precise disc rubbing techniques to give my games a fighting chance again.
I was so happy when I got a ps3 since blurays were dam near indestructible under normal use. Sometimes I can't believe how far we've came.
I get it in 2 years till my dad buy a hardisk for my ps2
Not scary. Just annoying.
I was giggling when i hear this sound when i was 6

"This console's broke. It's useless"

Note for cleaning fans with compressed air: it's recommended to hold the blades while you blow them off, as letting them spin too fast can damage them. They're not designed to have that much air go through them, usually it's more of a gentle breeze. If a huge gust of wind pushes it too fast, it can mess up some of the internals. Maybe not immediately but it may shorten its life. Source: work on PCs, learned it in C.I.S class in highschool

The fact that the ps2 is considered retro makes me feel extremely old even though im only in my 20’s. This was my childhood!!!
Me too, i'm remember that christmast when i recieved my PS2 i was 11 years old, also i'd to say i already had a XBOX classic AND a PSOne, how memories, how feelings, that never come back :'c
I’m 18 and no joke as a kid there was this sonic game that I use to play where you could play as sonic or either shadow and just hearing the theme of the ps2 made me feel extremely old
Meanwhile my family still playing on an N64
PS3 is considered legacy now with the release of the PS5, and when the PS6 comes out it'll be considered retro. Shit's wild
For real, I'm only 15 but I remember loving to play that one X-men game on my cousin's ps2
When I watch these console restorations, I think of all the memories that already exist because of that machine. As a gamer, it’s a nice feeling.
This was so satisfying. The white was so white that it highlighted how grimey my tablet screen is so thank you for that 😅 thank you also for not adding pointless music, it's lovely hearing the natural sounds
I love how he carefully scrapped the Nemo sticker without destroying it. Like this was someone's childhood and it deserves respect

Yeah, he didn't destroy it, but I'm sure he did throw it in the trash right after.

There is nothing more satisfying then watching his videos not only because it's entertaining to watch him take consoles apart and clean them but at the end he makes them playable again. Restores their physical appearance and mechanical conditions
The PS2 and the Xbox 360 were definitely my favorite consoles. So many good memories on both😌
I was really hoping he’d reapply a fresh Nemo sticker at the end
Same :(

same, it will be perfect
That sticker gave the console more character and history any RPG player character would dream of
I felt sad that it wasn't applied back too, like the thing was stripped of everything it had to become "brand new"
That would've been epic. 💯
That red screen sound sent a chill down my spine, fear I haven’t felt in 18 years
As an gamer with lots of skills o can say two things:
One:
I've putted some cool sounds in my pc and that red screen sound is one of them

The best part of this aside from how clean the ps2 gets is the new label being an exact replica as the old down to the SKU! Nuts! I'm using your two year video for inspiration as I'm currently restoring a ceramic white CECH-2500B using similar methods. I just don't have the ability to print labels and haven't been able to source white ones either.
Ps2 was a true champ, I had a game that couldn’t save so I had to leave it on for 2-3 days in order to beat the game, such a solid system and when you hit the on/off - reset buttons it works instantly. There’s no waiting like on the new consoles.
