Can a modchip go bad in 1 part? I was at a ps2 repair shop and they said that they dont think that the wire was off they think that the modchip went bad. but it reads ps2 games just not ps1 games?

ANYTHING is possible, BUT it sounds like they just want to sell you another chip.....

Tell them to give you the REASON they think this..... Like Dust said, if this wire comes loose, it will do exactly what you say it is doing...So it is VERY possible.....Of course, it could be the chip, BUT it could also be the wire.... I guess the guys at your shop are fortune tellers.... (They know without even looking) :D
