Open it up and clean the dust off the lens.  Then it\'ll work fine.

Well it should work.  My PS2 was starting to have plenty of trouble.  I merely opened it up and cleaned it, and voila!  It worked.

You\'d be surprised how much dust there is in it.

That\'s what mine did.  Eventually it started having trouble reading the disks at all.

Yeah...mine is reading a lot slower than is used to, and I\'ve had it for 3 years without any problems yet. I went to buy a laser lens cleaner...but the PS2 couldn\'t read the disc...:rolleyes: Pretty lame. I guess it didn\'t recognize the format of the CD so it couldn\'t read the track with the cleaner head on it.

I think I\'ll try cleaning the lens myself since my stupid warranty expired ages ago. Anyway, good luck with fixing your PS2.

Your best bet is probably Sony... see if any local places do repairs, compare prices, and your set.

Yea, I got it fixed. Just in case, what other stores will fix your PS2?

When my GC broke, they\'re were local certified dealers.  It was like EasyWay Electronics, not a franchise, just a local store.

You cleaned it, and it works?

Or you took it to a repair store, and it works?
