The Warranty Sticker location has moved from the back and is now
intentionally located directly over one of the (6) screws on
the v13 underside. Another major change includes the removal
of the Phone Line from the back of the v13 console, however, the
Network Line is
still present for online gaming fortunately.

Lastly, there is
a cover change to protect this version for the PSTwo-Fix and
SlimTool (or SlimTool clones). The hole for the Fix or Tool A
was changed
and
the hole for the Fix C or Tool C is closed with a metal plate.
Therefore the SlimTool A and PSTwo-Fix or SlimTool C don´t
fit! You can only use the new TwistTool or TwistTool
PRO!

Make sure to double check that the screw shown below is actually in your
system.
Simply take out the expansion slot cover,turn round your PlayStation 2
and check to see if the screw shown below is in your console, if it is,
you have a V5, V6 console.
If you dont have the screw
in the expansion slot you have either a new V7 PS2 or an older V1-V4 PlayStation2
baord.

If the marked screw doesn't show up in the expansion bay of your PlayStation

Turn the playstation upside-down and check how many screws
there are. The screws are covered by black plastic or rubber hole covers.
You can easily remove the screw covers by prying them off with a small
flat head precision screwdriver.
