There are some faulty ps2 power packs around and sony are replacing these free of charge. If you have a play around with the different serial numbers and other options then sooner or later (it took me less than 1 minute) it will tell you that you are in need of a new power pack and they will send you one. I got one but cant remember what serial number or other option i put in. Good luck

    They say your meant to send it back, but I doubt they'll get many back, most people chuck their old ones! I mean whos gonna bother to put it in the envelope, and carry it to a post office?!!??!?!

    Us too, we had an affected one, but we threw it out.

    Have applied for a replacement.

    Thanks to O/P.

    You will be asked to return the old one back when you receive yours.
    I doubt if they will chase you for it but I imagine that someone will be very peed off when they get such orders from possibly thousands who read this forum and dont have a faulty one to return

    I remember this happening with xbox a while back. I typed my details in and apparently needed a new one, but nothing came of it. Is this some kind of scam to get your details? :confused:

    No. The Xbox recall was genuine (I think they recalled around 14 million powerpacks). If you needed a new powerpack, and didn't receive it, you need to reapply. This PS2 recall is also genuine (they are recalling 1.4 million powerpacks).
