Hi all hope someone can help me here, I own a SLIM PS2 for few years now, and recently it started giving me scratches on my discs, the scratch are all circles. I couldnt get a good pictures of my own disc but i give a picture i found from the net for reference.



My scratches are not as bad as shown in the pictures but somewhat similar.

Anyone know the cause of this? ive cleaned out the ps2 for dust. but i notice that when i move the lens up and down, the gold strip connected to the lens tend to lift up higher than the lens. Is it safe to push and massage the that gold strip down? hopefully it will solve the problem.

Thanks all

Hi thanks for the comment. But i went a ahead and gently push down the wire strip connecting to the lens and tested an unscratched disc. Played for more than an hour and no more scratches .
