after 2 years of hardcore playing, my ps2 eventually died. the problem is the console cannot read the disc anymore. initially, i found a tactic that was press the ON button while pressing hard on the console's center cover and it sure would read but now this cannot works anymore no matter how hard or any position i pressed.

pls help!...any idea how to make it read again without sending it to shop.

is this ths so-called 'Sony Timer' in which any sony products will die after the warranty. i used to have a sony hifi and it really died after 2 years ?????
