Hello folks, I have an SCPH-30001 R system with a GH-015 board that has a very odd issue with detecting a memory card. When you are in the system browser and plug in a card for it to detect, it shows up briefly but then it disappears and comes back over and over again fairly quickly. The...

Thanks for the link. I am going to pull the console apart again and take another look at the syscon logs to see if anything interesting showed up when it failed to output HDMI. I'll see if I can measure any of the voltages around that HDMI circuit as well if I can find a good diagram.

I have one of the launch model PS3 fats with a no HDMI output issue. Initially, the unit would not power on with a YLOD. I hooked up to the syscon (that troubleshooting method is fantastic btw) and from the errors it was throwing (A082120) it was something wrong with the HDMI circuit. Probing...

Yep, those are the lasers that I use. The unit had a 400C in it as well. Not sure if that is original or not given the model number of the unit though. I was thinking about trying to flash on the new laser data with Lens Changer but didn't know if that would help or not given the symptoms this...

I am having an odd issue with an SCHP-30001 reading discs. When a disc is put in the drive, the laser shines once on the disc, the spindle motor starts spinning the disc, then the laser never shines again (that I can tell anyway) but you can hear it clicking like it is trying to focus as the...

Just to put a close on this one, I got the system to boot up. I'm not entirely sure what the issue with it was but if I had to guess, it was probably the bottom metal shroud that had a bent corner to it that was shorting something out. I fixed that after I had disassembled the system but forgot...

Forgot to include the board model its: GH-032-22 Also heard that some people have trouble with those links I posted. Apparently imageshack has two different kinds of links. Here are the replacements for those: https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img923/401/CGXb7U.jpg...

I am tinkering with a PS2 slim to try and bring it back to life again and was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction for the issue I'm having. The unit get a standby light, then turns green when you push the power button. However, there is no fan spin and no other signs...
