I LOOK INSIDE MY PS2 AND CORD ATTACHED TO THE TOP COVER BROKE

Question

I WAS LOOKING IN MY PS2 AND THE CORD ATTACHED TO THE HEAD BROKE I AM NOT PAYING TO GET IT FIXED HELP!! I NEED A MANUEL WITH PICTURES ON HOW TO REATTACHE IT!

Answer 1

Serves you right for poking around where you shouldnt have been

Answer 2

Did the cord actually break or just detach?

It it broke you'll need to buy a new one. I believe they are specific to the PS2 model you have, but you shouldn't have to much trouble finding them online.

If it just became detached, then one side attaches to the PS2 eject/reset button, and the other side attaches to a spot on the mainboard. I assume this is a fat PS2, so it will be rather far down. It may require you to take the whole thing apart.

This ribbon is way overpriced, but the picture should help you find the place to plug it in.
