Help with PS2 POT plz

Laguna_Leonhart · 12-05-2006, 06:04 AM

Hi,

I just got a replacement laser and my ps2 version is one of the oldest ones.

I installed the laser and it didnt read any DVD original games. It read CD's fine so i started adjusting...i adjusted the white cog, skrew on laser unit and finally as a last resort started playing with the pot. I know this is not advisable but i ran out of ideas. I have a multi metre but i do not know which setting to use when mesuring the current or resistance or whatever im supposed to be measureing from the pot. If someone could advise me on what setting i should set my multi metre to and what i am supposed to be measuring (current etc) i would be very grateful.

Also my ps2 is modded.

Shouldnt new lasers come preset?

Thanks

The laser i have purchased is a KHS-400B. It does say on the website that it will not work for a modded PS" but i have also read that this is not the case and it is more something to cover their back.

Can anyone confirm whether this works on a modded ps2?

Thanks

Since my last post i have been advised to use the lowest Ohm setting on my Multimetre. Mine is 200...does this sound right?

Thanks
