Ok I have an SCPH-1002 ps1 (European launch model) which has no sound, one of the capacitors had leaked, I took it out, cleaned it up and replaced it, all the traces appear to be intact still nothing. If it's all the capacitors I might just chuck it, need to get rid of some of my stuff anyway lol
Any ideas?

Check the cables you're using are good. If you're using the MULTI-AV out, try using the dedicated ports instead.
Capacitors are cheap. Rather off replacing them.
Dont chuck it! Only N64's deserve to be chucked around here :D

check if directly from the dac you got audio, http://dogbreath.de/PS1/output/output.html there's the whole schematic of the audio part, if you mod it you can get a real good sounding cd-player, or a real good sounding game console. coupling the output from the DAC directly to a pair of RCA jacks or the ones in the back gives a good result. good luck
I wouldn't chuck it, even if all the caps are bad people still pay good money for them.
Besides, there are only a handful of capacitors involved in the audio circuitry.

My feedback thread, since it seems somewhat difficult for people to find.
Yeah I didn't really mean it about throwing it out, I was just in a bad mood after the leaky capacitor replacement didn't work and i was feeling lazy, I'm not very good with pcb soldering lol. But that bypassing the audio circuit looks good to me, I will attempt that as soon as I have built an extractor fan.
That's what I thought I do actually have a second one but I don't like to throw stuff away lolOriginally Posted by Bad_Ad84
I'm a bit of a hoarder

I keep most of my stuff too. The way I see it is why throw it out, when it will be chucked into landfill, piled under dirt and left there for a few hundred years to breakdown where the soil will then be toxic and unsafe.
