      I would suggest at this point to make sure you fully took off the anti static ball on the side of the new laser. If so and it still doesn't work then you may just need to try another new laser. Sometimes that is the case.

      Yeah I gotchya, but I fixed many ps2 slims and sometimes the lasers still don't spin the disc even if it light up red. It could just be a defect in that particular laser. They are all cheaply made in China. You should at least try another new laser before giving up on it.

      My memory cards didn't work either after trying to use my PS2 Slim line that I had stored in my closet for years but I just took a Q-Tip and wet it with 90% rubbing alcohol, then I used it to clean the contacts on the memory cards and the contacts on the PS2 also (unplug power from PS2 first) Then I pushed the memory card in and out a few times and It worked perfectly! The alcohol evaporates easily. Just do not drench the Q-Tip too much. You will see the dirt on the Q-Tip after cleaning. Just make sure you allow the alcohol to fully evaporate before powering up again. Five minutes to be safe. IT WORKS! USB ports as well. And ethernet contacts.

      @@leonardo613 you may just need a new spindle. You could get them new on eBay. You just have to get the right one for the model you have.

      Yeah some models only have the one in the front. So if pushing down on that one still doesn't work then it could also be you need a new spindle.

      If this doesn't make it work it is either that you need to put in a new laser (have a video on how to do) or you just need to replace the spindle (the piece with the ribbon tape that turns the disc)
