If the power light on the front of the system is flashing red, or alternately flashing red or green, this may indicate the PlayStation 2 system may need service. Contact Consumer Services below.
It sounds like the video/audio input on the console is either not plugged in, the TV isn't set to the right input, or the input is malfunctioning. I'd try making sure all of the connections are plugged in securely on both the system and the TV, and cycling through all of your TV's inputs.
To confirm: red light blinking does mean that the console is overheating, which I know from experience.
Solution: Do not leave on carpet or any materials similar as they
insulate. If possible, leave the console vertical instead of horizontal
and this will help cool the system. Better yet, if you can still find
one, a USB fan that plugs onto the front of your grill.
it might be a problem in the wiring which would have to be fixed by an expert. also you could tey cleaning the disk tray using a compressed air can. you can find these cans at most place like walmart or electronic stores.
It might just be the game if that's the only one giving you problems. I have Shining Force Neo, and occasionally it will lag so bad I'll have to wait several minutes before I can resume gameplay. It seems to be a problem with the game itself, not your system.
