Fitting
Tutorial for the v5/6 and v7 PS 2 R Key.
This tutorial is intended to guide you through the process of
installing the R Key in your UK v5 and v6 console. To identify your console
version, check out the FAQ/Support page HERE
Before ordering your R Key, we recommend that you follow the
Tutorial and open up your PlayStation 2 and have a look at the connection
points. A few minutes now could save you a lot of time latter. So many of our
customers purchase their Mods from us only to discover that they don't feel
confident at fitting them.
Make sure that you read all of the info before you start, and
set aside an hour if you've never fitted one before to avoid any foul
ups. (Getting rid of the wife and kids also helps….)
PSX Services will not be held responsible if you open up your console and make a pigs ear of it!!!!!!

Unplug the left and
the middle one of the three cables.
(9) Connect the two
flat cables to the PS2 R-Mod Board exactly as shown here:
(The new version of the mod board looks slightly different,
but the two cables are different and you won't have problems to see which cable
needs to plug in at which of the both connectors)
(10) Now connect the
PS2 R-Mod to the two connectors where you previously removed the two flat
cables.
(11) Re-assemble the
PS2. No soldering was required.
Now that the mod is
