It's so cool and satisfying to watch a fallen ps1 being brought back to it's former glory days. The nostalgia of the ps1 startup is still the best sound of any console. Great video.

[@Freddyfan1428]

WOW! Did the former owner bury this poor PS1 at a beach or something? Just the sheer amount of debris inside... Was a bit scary to see the smoke coming out on that first attempted power-on! Wonderful work on the restoration! Thanks for sharing this with us. 🙂

[@Home8590-d4g]

It is always a miracle, when dirty and yellow becoming look like new, just from the Christmas present box. Never getting bored to see such changing.

[@dave8826]

Love the new smoke effects the PSX can give us, it's like playing Medal of Honor in 4D!

[@XeonProductions]

First rule of restoring, inspect the internals before just plugging it in and turning it on; especially for something that dirty and suspect.

[@MisterC1989]

no, lets just plug in and power on the fire hazard, yolo x)

[@cottage_pie]

He also plugged in the power board too by itself. I did that once years ago and it jolted me. 10 year old was shook.

[@loukelsall8712]

Why mess with it unless it turns on when u plug it in

[@unknown_universe]

This is a patchwork of several consoles. The SCPH-7502 model does not have Cinch type outputs on the rear, only the AV Multi Out connector. The interior of the PSX is the SCPH-1002 model.

[@baffledbrandon3132]

I am now fully convinced that this man is a magician.

[@مطبخوفاءفؤاد]

The old stuff was made to last but they were also more expensive if you consider inflation. We actually work less hours nowadays to buy the same stuff because most companies reduced the quality of their products to produce more units of the same thing, but of course, it impacts durability. It's kinda bad because things don't last as before but that's how people who couldn't afford stuff in the past get to buy it nowadays. Awesome Video

[@Crystallums]

Simply Amazing Job!

[@Izaiaskiko]

Very cool! Have you ever thought about using an ultrasonic tub to clean the optical unit and pcb's?

[@resEG]

Unfortunately, I don't have enough information about it, I will search about it, Thanks for the tip!

[@Amier80]

Amazing restoration

[@rednef71]

I can’t believe people think these videos on this channel are actual restorations. Fake dirt on the outside..and did you notice at 3:09 when he lifted the circuit board there was no gravel beneath..then cuts to gravel being inside there. Lol…

[@Lenmaer]

That's no 7502 model! Something's suspicious here. The 7502 models have no RCA connections.

[@HAGZ0483]

Yeah, the controller and memory ports are also too clean from the start, guess he couldn't find a dirty unit to restore he had to make one mixing parts.

[@resEG]

Maybe you're right, the SCPH-7502 doesn't have A/V direct out, but This PlayStation was sent to me to be restored and repaired by a subscriber who didn't have any use for it.

[@Lenmaer]

@@resEG Well, could be that whichever shop installed the modchip mixed up the back covers. Because that's an SCPH-1002 motherboard and top cover in the video.

[@jasonmus]

@@Lenmaer Or, you know, this "restoration" is clearly faked. I guess "I cleaned up a PS1 that I rubbed dirt on" doesn't get the views, though.

[@SrWolf90]

@@HAGZ0483 It just has the back cover of another console, but it is a SCPH 1001, its power supply is 125v.

[@sebastian4699]

Why are the old solder points on the "exploded" capacitor looking like new ones? They obviously differ from all other old ones. Maybe because it was already broken when you placed it on the board... and faked the explosion (and all the dirt on and inside of the case)...

[@vcommandarv5916]

The explosion wasn't fake, it happened to me aswell, other things idk

[@MichaelM28]

That's definitely not a SCPH-7502 as the 70xx models didn't have the RCA ports on the back

[@ratos74]

[@MichaelM28]

@@ratos74 there was a boot logo

[@ratos74]

@@MichaelM28 Sorry but there was none. A boot logo I mean the black screen with playstation logo and text: "Licensed by Sony computer Entertainment Europe" ... the boot code is verified and the disc is launched. Nothing like that in the video. But I liked the video.

[@TrimeshSZ]

It's an SCPH-1001 with a fake label. The obvious signs are (1) it has a US style polarized power connector (2) At 4:40 you can see the fuse rating warning label - which is only on US machines (3) At 5:22 you can see that X202 is 53.693 MHz - correct for NTSC machines, but not for PAL (4) At 5:34 you can see the build code on the CD MCU - which is 2021 (V2.1, NTSC:U/C) - the input filter cap has also been changed to 400V 47uF to allow operation on 220V.

How did you keep it plugged in for so long when it was smoking

[@TheOtakuNinja69]

What component was on the circuit board that caused it to smoke like that when you first turned it on?

[@jerrycram2401]

The capacitor. You can tell they're blown when the top is domed instead of flat. Also, the smoking is usually a dead giveaway lol.

[@TheOtakuNinja69]

@@jerrycram2401 I did learn soldering a long time ago, I just forgot the name of the component names.

[@ChosenChalice420]

That looked like cat doodoo!!!🤣🤣🤣🫶🫶🫶👏👏👏👍👍👍

[@leopold4301]

It is very similar to when electronic devices are suddenly found in the mud. More blackness could have been added to the board, given how heavily the capacitor smoked. They leave more black and effects with less smoke, I think this is a disadvantage of the video, otherwise it's quite a cool video.

Nunca entendere como tienden a probar las cosas cuando están en un estado deprorable, en este caso es un condensador pero podría haber estropeado gran parte de la electrónica. Pero bueno me encantó la restauración.

[@resEG]

¡Gracias por el comentario! 👍😊

[@SrWolf90]

Totalmente de acuerdo, compre una Nintendo 64 por 22€, y el chico que me lo vendió dijo que lo compro en un lote y lo enchufo sin antes revisar el estado interno de la consola, y como vio que no funcionaba la vendió a un precio ridículo, cuando me llego a casa, la desmonto y el tatara dueño anterior le trato de hacer el mod de overclock y se cargo 2 patillas de la CPU, y el problema vino es que el siguiente dueño de la consola a quien le compre la N64 trato de encenderla y lo malo es que los cables del mod de overclock que se soldó que cogían la alimentación del condensador reposaban sobre la CPU (Se coge alimentación para montar el circuito del MOD del overlock)... Pudo haber quemado la CPU, por suerte me arme de valor, lime el chip a pesar que ya daba por muerta la consola, le saque las 2 patillas y hice un puente con 2 cables de cobre muy finitos y revivió!! Resumidas cuentas, cuando se compra algo sin saber su procedencia, desmontar antes.

[@jasonmus]

Just... why fake this stuff? It's so obvious you just rub dirt on the outside of it, then fake a puff of smoke from inside (otherwise there would be no reason to open it up), then re-solder a cap that clearly hadn't actually popped.
