Broke PS2?
 

Hi,

I have a ps2 that crashes all the time, somthimes makes a grinding noice like its not spinning the disk fast enough and also has 4 marks along the screen like there is somthing wrong with the video? Any help on this matter would be great as it is out of warranty! ahh

Thanks.

What is the history f the PS2?
Has it ever been opened, etc?
Which model?

its a 3003, no history. bought from new.

If the fault had occured after drop or someone trippin over the controller lead then it could have a twisted spindle moter platten.
Pull the PS2 apart and check where the disk spins. Insert a disk to test that indead the disk spins smoothly and doesn't tilt.

Failing that u prob have a bad laser. Here in NZ I have sent a number of 3003 away to get new lasers under warrenttee.
I can't say i heard them make a grinding sound though.

Oh gently adjust the platten if needed but take note of how high the cd is above the laser!!!!!. Very Important!!!!!!
Use a hard card or something to lay between the two.
