Picking a replacement power supply is tricky if you don't know the process, and the exact specs of the supply you are trying to replace. You would be much better off just buying one listed for your model PS2, like this one:

Brand new power supply for $16.95 and usually ships the next day. Something like this you would have no chance of damaging your unit.
It's probably repairable, but I don't think most people have the tools laying around. It likely just needs a new power supply, but Sony doesn't use commonly available components. You could definitely send it into Sony for a quick and easy repair, and it likely wouldn't cost very much. If it's not the power supply, they would also be able to tell you what the problem is. However, plugging it in on the wrong voltage likely means that the power supply blew out. Everything else should be fine.
If you want to try and replace bits and pieces, you can probably find individual components at Radio Shack... but you would have to be good at troubleshooting and soldering.
hi!
well some sort of loosening connection to your power supply,the power supply cable might be loosening have it replace,or find some a replcement to test.cheers
My suggestion is if it will plug into the newer unit, then it is fine to utilize the older power supply. I have two different PS2 units, and we use the cords for either to plug the units in.
hello this is a problem for a tech to look at..your other bet is to look on ebay.and buy a second hand non working ps2 that turns on..you will have to make sure you get the same model as yours as some power supplies are different.
You might try a friends ps2 power supply of the same type to make shure it isnt the ps2 that is broken. If the friends power supply works, get a working one from ebay or something.
