    Default PS2 repair help

    I was removing old broken ps2 30001 r's damaged spindle and laser ribbons and slipped when putting the drive back into the case and broke off a 2c 47uf 16v capacitor from the back near the fan. So I was wondering if I could resoder the capacitor back to the board with some wire and it would work, i already have the cables I was replacing put in. The power comes on the fan spins but with component and composite I get no sound or video, so can it be fixed or did I sink $22 into a sinking ship?

    EDIT: Well I soldered it to the board but still only the fan kicks in could I have fried something when I turned it on without the part the first time?
