This PS2 (39001) came to me DOA. Customer thinks it died during a thunderstorm. From past experience with PS2s my hunch was a fault in the power supply. So come along as I diagnose this PS2 and see if my hunch is correct! I also right a wrong in a past video, as I promised I would do.

Warning: If you work on power supplies, be careful. Though unplugged from power, capacitors can still hold a charge. Work on power supplies at your own risk and be safe and have fun!
