How do you get to the pots?

[ihaveanosebleed]

Search google there should be some good instructions out for making adjustments.

You should have a multi-tester (preferably digital) to test the Ohms on the 2 pins on top of each Pot. Record the original settings, adjust to (around 800 for V1-4) 900-1000 should be good for a V7.

You’ll have the drive cover and tray out to clean the laser and adjust the white gear, so the easiest way
To get at the Pot’s is to remove the screw holding the sled pin on the right of the laser sled, then you can pull the laser out and flip it over being careful of the ribbon and lens, you don’t need to disconnect it.

I can usually get a bad PS2 reading DVD’s in less than 5 minutes.
