Default help disc tray error!!!

My son has a PS2 and it has developed an error with the disc tray. When you turn the console on, the disc tray pops out automatically. When you depress the eject/disc in buton, the tray oes back in, but after a split second it pops back out again. Even when you put a disc in, it comes straight back out. It is an original PS2, and not one of the newer slimline versions. If we don't manage to get this sorted, it would be like we've just amputated his arms. Can somebody please offer some help and advice on what could posibly be wrong, and more immportantly how to go about rectifying this????

Default Re: help disc tray error!!!

I'm afraid the only way to have this fixed is to have someone look inside and check things out. It sounds like the contact inside is registering twice or there is a short somewhere in the wires leading to the disc tray.

Your best bet would be to contact Sony's tech support and see if they would be able to fix it. This would require sending it in to them and you would have to pay for the repairs- not sure how much that would be but they can tell you before you make the decision to do so. Depending on how much it is it may be cheaper in the long run to pick up a new slimline PS2 and get yourself the warranty on it.
