swap chip problem

its an old chip that use to be in anouther ps2 I installed it in a frends ps2 cause I no longer need it but

the problem is it wont stick out the disc tray it started to do this after
he accsedentley terned off the power with the tray out from the chip being aciveated and after that it would not stick it out again

so is the swap chip compleatley fryed or is there something
I can do to get it to work?

Just rip it out and get a decent no swap mod.

Remove the chip, then see if the console works correctly.

the v4 ones are very quier make sure you have plugged the little plugs into the mobo and onto the modchip and make sure nothings shorted out.

Hope this helps.

If the tray ejects under normal use but not when preforming the swap trick then the chip is damaged. If it was a loose connection it wouldnt eject under normal conditions.

hey,

remember the chip wont activate till you put in the swap magic disks.

i think

open the ps2 and remove the modchip.then pug the connectors back in turn the ps2 on see if its all cool if so. turn it off plug the modchip back in and load up swap magic. Maybe the chip is faulty i suggest you give a modchip installer a bell and ask him to fit a proper mod (duo magic 5 m2 dms3). Then you be able to play games without swapping
