Restoring the original PlayStation (PS1) - Vintage Console restoration & repair

About this video

A PlayStation 1 that started having issues and was then stored in a shed collecting dirt and dust is cleaned up and repaired by Odd Tinkering.

Good to know: Mains voltage inside the power supply, and capacitors stay charged after unplugging. Never look into a powered laser. Cleaning solvents are flammable.

Why watch it

Testing is delayed until the worst dirt is off, because the maker fears a short or scratched game discs in the spinning drive.
