Playstation 2 broke from static charge? Is that possible? HELP!!?

May be...

I have kept pretty good care of my PS2. The other day, I was routinely turning it on, about to sit down and enjoy some mindless entertainment. I reached out to push the “on” button, and a static charge went between me and the PS2. Now… keep in mind that I’ve been shocked many times in my life; and a lot harder than a few days ago. I thought it was no big deal.



So I go to the kitchen to stop the microwave or something. When I returned, I realized that the PS2 still wasn’t on. I’m almost positive that I saw the green light go on when I first depressed the button. Maybe I was in a hurry.



Anyway, the point is, that now the PS2 won’t turn on. It shows power (showing the red light). But it won’t turn to green. I looked in the manual, and it makes it sound like its no big deal, under “Troubleshooting”. It says something along the lines of “simply unplug the power cord, wait a little while, and plug back in.” Needless to say, it’s been 2 days now, and that tactic hasn’t worked.

if it is the slim version you are screwed otherwise you can take it to a game stop and they will direct you to a station repair shop the same thing happened to me it costs from 30-40 dollars to reapir it

Yes it's possible...........rare as hell.....but it can happen.

If it is static that did that then you are screwed, sorry. The static goes through and destroys all components. Buy another PS2.
