There is an alternate to hook up the fan. I dont know where the fuse is at, but my PS2 V7 Fan cuircit died also, I rewired it to use the USB plug. Its pretty simple.

Cut a spare USB cable, find the Red and Black wire, link it to the Fan wire, and plug it in the PS2 USB port, and the fan should work as before.

The USB port should work, if the PS2 turns on, the USB will work.

Hook up Black with Black and Red with White.

You can switch them. Basically here is the USB layout.
