PS2 SCPH-10000 JDS3B 50TA0308A motor

Anyone know of a proper sized replacement for this motor (JDS3B 50TA0308A motor) ? I booted up My 10000 model to rip some music cd's to my BB unit's HDD but it wouldn't eject.

I took it apart and the motor barely moves without a belt on it, its toast.

Is there a way i can restore it perhaps?

 

Country location would help

 

Im in Canada, my PS2 is from Japan.

 

Did you try spraying some contact cleaner into the motor? Maybe it just seized up.

 

Its not seized, as stated it moves but if you lightly touch it as its spinning, it completely stops because its so weak, and thats with no belt on it so there is no real load on it. Getting it to eject 1 inch, is asking for a miracle, its just so worn out.

Do you think spraying lube might bring some power back?

Ive stripped down some broken ps2's, old pc drives but the motors are not thin enough to fit. That japanese motor is just too small to find a replacement.

 

Isn't that the definition of being seized up? Anyway, you've got nothing to lose by trying to lubricate the motor.

 

The term seized, where i come from, when pertaining to machinery/moving parts. it means jammed or frozen in place, unable to move by any force applied.

My motor runs when there is not a belt on the pully, it is just too weak to function under load.

I have an old can of sewing machine oil somewhere, I'll put a few drops in and test it out and see if it gets some power back.

 

It didn't work out.

The original question now remains. Does anyone know where i can buy one of these eject motors? I believe they were only in the scph-10000, 15000 & 18000 models of PS2's. I don't know what other devices used these motors.

 

The fault is not the motor, that I tell you 100% sure. You must have a slipping tray belt.

Replace the tray rubber belt with a correct length one. The one you have is either dry or stretched out and doesn't grip on the pulleys, slipping as the motor spins.

In the unlikely case that you have a fault elsewhere, it will be either the BA5810 IC, the resistor which limits the current for the tray motor at the control pin for the BA5810 which is broken or a incorrect speed setting for the eject motor on the PS2 EEPROM..

 

I can assure you that it is the motor. As i stated, the motor will completely stop if you barely touch your finger nail on the motors brass pulley as it spins (while the motor is removed and has no belt on it at all).

Initially i cleaned the belt then replaced it, which is why i removed the screws and pulled the motor out and kept hitting eject while lightly touching it as it spun. The motor has no strength left at all.

I also desoldered the motor and soldered in one from a fully functional ps2 disc drive. The motor spun with loads of strength. I cant use it unfortunately because its almost twice as thick and 50% larger diameter. The early Japanese models used such a small motor, its probably why its almost dead, just too small for the application its used for.

 

I had same issue, was indeed the motor.

@OP: Well, one thing I can tell you. You can salvage that motor from any 10-screw unit, fortunately. The early USA ones will come with a motor which may match the required cable length and will also have the proper plug already fitted. The first 8 screws model will have the same motor but the motor wiring will be a tad shorter.

 

The wires are never an issue, i can solder in the motor. The problem is, the motors are different diameters and the Japanese console is molded to fit that exact size motor. The north American motors are almost 4mm larger diameter and simply will not seat down in the hole in the lower half of the shell.
