Damn I fixed it !!!!
You'll never gonna believe it ... A resistor was not soldered at the right place !!
This motherboard can host 2 types of EEPROM + CLOCK. IC416 or IC 405 + IC 406 (they split EEPROM and Clock for some reason on some models). Mine has IC 416.
And if you look at the manual ...
Looks like it could be more serious than I thought.
The clock problem occurred on another of my PS2 (I switch of the power line when I don't use it, and the battery eventually died). However, the problem is not the same. Only clock settings are reset, the console kept language for instance...
Hi everyone,
I'm renewing a SCPH-30004R PAL PS2 (GH-015) and I'm facing a very weird issue (looks like I'm attracting them :D).
When the console starts, the background is not animated and the console language is English.
I can change language (I live in France so french it is) but it goes...
Unfortunatly, "W" wire is required. I unsoldered it and the chip is no longer detected.
I was not able to find a messiah2 chip online. I guess it's no longer for sale.... The only one I can find is the Modbo 5.
Unfortunatly it is not resolved. It worked for a bit but after some time, I have the problem again. It's like it happens now when the console is warm, after I played a bit. The BIOS injection fails if the console was in standby mode.
I wrote too fast, or I was lucky : still have the problem ....
It seems to be solved ! The trick is to solder "R" directly to the BIOS chip with a wire as short as possible. I was able to guess what pin it is thanks to your PDF x7l7j8cc. Thanks a lot !
Below the updated diagram.
I've been playing fallout4 all day, I went into a elevator and it kept going, never stopped, waited 5 minutes, must of been a bug. How bout you, whatcha do today?
