Put a DVD into the PS2 and let it try to load. When the screen says chenge to level four select yes. When the entry window pops up,press the select button on the controller. It should say reset password or something like that. Put in 7444. Then when you rename the password put in 0000. You will have to do it again 0000.
Once the movie starts, not the menu screen, but the movie actually playing, Press Select button again. The PS2 DVD menu should appear. Cursor over to the toolbox or Setup, and press X. Cursor over to the third icon, and press X. Arrow down to PArental and press X. Change the Parental lockout to OFF.

I am not completely sure about the procedure here but the numbers are correct.

Here is the procedure to reset the parental lock code:

  1. Bring up a screen where the unit asks you to enter in the parental code. You can either insert a restricted disc, or enter the DVD setup menu and go to "parental control" under GA_googleFillSlot("TL-IMU-Article"); custom setup.
  2. When the screen asks for the code, press the SELECT button, then enter in the code "7444".
  3. The level adjustment under Parental Control dictates the strictness of the player. The lower the value, the more strict it will be. Either increase the value to lower the restriction, or disable the lock entirely by setting it to "off".
  4. Once you have made your adjustments, be sure that the DVD tray is empty, and press the RESET button on the front of the Playstation 2. It is imperative the tray is clear of any DVD or game for the unit to save your settings

I apparently put on a parental lock, don't know the code and want to be able to watch dvds. Is there a universal override code?

When you get to the password input screen, press the select button. The text should change from Enter Password to Delete Password. Then enter the code 7-4-4-4 . From there you can set a new level and password for yourself.

If this does not work, the other code is usually 0000. However if they change the default password, then it will be hard to find out.

Parental control code that i didnt set

The factory preset override code for the parental lock is 3308. This code, however, will NOT remove the parental lock code in place. This is just a code to get around the lock. I'm not sure how to dissable to code someone else entered...still trying to figure that out!
