    If your light is blinking in red, then your ps2 is overheating. I've had this happen. if your outlet vents are blocked, or it is very hot in your room. when this happens, your ps2 can become too hot. when the internal temperature of your console get too high, it will shut itself down to protect itself from damage. it will also start blinking the red light to indicate it has shut itself down due to overheating. you will not be able use your ps2 until the blinking stops.

    PS2 consoles aren't much different than a PC. It sounds like it might be the power supply acting up. If you look into the fan shroud and see dust bunnies willy nilly, you can try a can of compressed air to blow out the dust. While you're at it, give a squirt of air last, into the disk tray compartment to clean off the laser lens. If you're still having issues, it's time to take it into a shop for a repair estimate.
