TommyAngelo Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Alright so I've called you all in here for some help, I thought I'd come here because I'm to lazy to search the internet for some guides. The problem with my old buddy the Playstation is that infact, it won't even spin the disc when I place it in. I've opened it up, looked around but haven't been able to find any problems with it. The only problem I thought there could be is there was this little white stuff with in the disc's spinner thing. I've hoped that this will be enough information for you to figure out what is wrong with it. Now I would just buy a new one for like 20 bucks but there is some reasons why I want to keep it, if you know what I'm talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean where the prong looking thing is, don't pay attention to the arrow but rather where the other end of the arrow is going to point to... The little thing where is lached on, is that what you'r talking about? Or where the arrow IS pointing to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffins Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 yeah it's been chipped, that's why hey want's to keep it. I had my old playstation chipped too, but that never happened. All I can say it Find a new disc spinner on Google, I've seen them. I say this because the spinner's motor is probably burnt out, or a circut is shorted.

Smellton Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Have you tried turning the Playstation on and pressing down the disc spinner button? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes this is what I was thinking, but I haven't tried pushing down on the spinner yet. I doubt that would help. Oh and GTARockstar, I'm talking about the thing where the arrow is pointing too. If there is anything that could fix this with out me having to buy anything from the internet, due to me living in the outback. That would be great. Have you tried turning the Playstation on and pressing down the disc spinner button? Another thing about this, how the f*ck would I be able to do this while its running as I need it closed for the disc to run, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernard Jazz Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Pencils are no good, The innard of a pen works because it can bend but you're f*cked if the ink spills out. The solution to keeping it pressed down while it's open is blu-tac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
