    I was modding a 7502 psx console with a mayumi board, but managed to brake the trace for pin 6 :mad:
    Is there an alternative spot that I can use? If I solder one of the nearby components, the cd-drive spins like crazy.
    Luckily, the console still operates (and reads original discs), if I remove the chip completely

    The resistor under the arrow point n°6, and don't solder on other component randomly without any knowledge, you can damage your psx permanently...

    I think I tried this spot. This is where the CD ROM spins like crazy. I'll give it one more try though, with new cables. The ones I used maybe are too thin. Too them from a broken serial cable
