The playstation2 is loading but shows `no data` on screen. Any ideas how to fix it or know anyone who could repair it. Please.

Does the PS2 actually load the game?

I undertook the diagnosis check but it didn`t initialise. I then removed the cover and cleaned the laser using isoprop, loaded a disc and noticed that the spindle only briefly turned. I lifted the disc and reset. The laser jiggled up and down and flashed briefly but the spindle only jolted a little. Is the problem associated with the motor?

As a matter of interest how old is your playstation 2?

It`s an early PS2 so about 3 - 4 yrs?

I`m trying to check the fuses, where can I find them?
