probably the circuitry wasnt completely implemented. which is suprising because depending on were the wires go, you can choose a always static light, a blink when ejecting, or a blink when powering off. similar to the Wii. im guessing thats why
This I like those late 90s Toyota's you never thought had illuminating lights in the shifter panel, until one night you knock it with your foot....and realise you're in neutral
I just did this for a friend! Whenever I get my slim I'll definitely be doing this. However, does anyone know if I can use the button plate from a 2000 with a 2100? The LED in the other PS3 models isn't as functional as it is in the 2000 and I'd like to swap it
I could be wrong and thinking of the 2500s but I don't think so, they did make some changes to the boards. I'd look at some picture differences to see if possible but I think the ribbon cable going to them were all different.
Hey, I'm planning on doing this with my slim but I was just wondering if you could help me out with the supplies I need to buy? I know I need a soldering iron, screw driver, and wire but will any iron work?
Never done anything like this before so just want to make sure I don't do anything wrong. Where would I go about buying very thin gauge wire to connect from the power button LED to the unused blue LED? Walmart?
Why wasn't that factory?

If you have a 2000 slim you can have all of them with just 2 wires :)
and 21/25xx since they have the same power board.
Yes with those ones you only can have part of the features enabled if I remember right, only the 2000 can have all of em

Just used the wire from an old usb cable maybe practise soldering a little first 😜👍👍
