:: SCPH-1001 installation ::

Here are some very detailed instructions that have been designed to help you modify your Playstation as quickly as possible. In order to begin your modification you will need the following:

  • A soldering iron with a fine tip and solder (we send you super thin solder, use it!)
  • A philips head screwdriver

Now that we have the materials we are ready to modify the Playstation!
Stage 1:
  Go to a clean work area and heat up your soldering iron. Mark on a piece of paper 4 sections for the screws A,B,C,D.
-
Stage 2:

Turn over the Playstation and remove the 5 screws from the base as illustrated by figure 1. Place the 5 screws on the screw sheet in section A. Turn the system back over and remove the top cover.

Figure 1
Stage 3:

Remove the laser housing unit by:

  1. Removing the connector at 1 in figure 2 by gently pulling upwards (Be very careful here)
  2. Remove the copper colored connector from 3 . In order to do this YOU MUST lift up the base of the connector and then slide the cable out as shown in figure 3. Note: The base does not get removed. After the cables have been removed lift up the laser housing unit and place it in a safe but close place.

 

 

While we’re here remove the cable from 2 (figure 2) by gently pulling upwards (you must first unlock the ribbon by lifting the socket upwards to release the cable, then GENTLY pull the ribbon upwards to release if from the black socket). Also, pull the copper strip back at location 4 (If it's there).
Stage 4:
  Remove the five screws from the metal bracket in figure 4 and place them in location B on the screw sheet. Note: The longer screws go into the right and left holes on the bracket. Now remove the metal bracket and again put it into a safe but close place.
Stage 5:
 

Remove the cable from the controller/memory card housing (Shown in figure 4 - purple circle). Remove the controller/memory housing unit and you know where it goes.. (safe place). Now remove the 5 screws from the main bracket (As shown by the red indicators) and place them on location C of the screw sheet.

This will expose the whole circuit board. We’re almost there…
Stage 6:
 

Remove the 3 screws at the top of the circuit board and put them on the screw sheet in location D. Remove the circuit board and flip it over!

WE ARE NOW READY TO INSTALL THE MOD CHIP
 

Make sure to leave the cover on the chip as it isolates the chip from the board, also trim the metal wire showing so that its the same size as to the spot your soldering it. Now flip your circuit board over. Now look at the circuit board diagrams below. Model 1001 or Older Model 1001 and observe that the diagram corresponds to the upper right hand corner of the circuit board. Please note that there are basically two different Playstation boards, a 52 pin (52 pins on the chip in the upper right hand corner) board as shown in the diagram and a 80 pin board. The 80 pin board installation is EXACTLY the same as the 52 pin installation. Pin 2 is still the SECOND pin down the left hand side. Now There are 4 points to solder your wires to.

Pin 1 (red wire) of the chip goes to location 1.
Pin 5 (green wire) of the chip goes to location 5
Pin 6 (yellow wire) of the chip goes to location 6
Pin 8 (black wire) of the chip goes to location 8

Now all we have to do is solder the wires to the system board. **Trim the wires, make the pre stripped end smaller in length then the location your soldering to on the board. Now add a small amount of solder to spots your going to be soldering to, just heat up that spot and add a SMALL amount of solder. After doing this to all spots wires will be soldered to, one at a time place each wire on top of those spots and heat them up on the board so they attach to the correct locations. That's it your done, no need to mount the chip, just make sure its flat against the board.


Reverse all the steps above to reassemble your system.


You can only wire a 1001 in 4 wire mode, stealth does not work on a 1001 model, if you want to play protected games you need to patch them or use a plugin MODCLIP with your chip!
