PS2 question

Hey,

I have a PS2 and the second controller port / second memory card port aren't working. I dropoed the PS2 onto a tile floor once while watching a movie on it and I had to take it apart and realign some things for the thing to even turn on again. Ever since then the second ports have gone dead and refuse to recognize anything. For Christmas we bought a Saitek WOW Wireless Adaptor for the controller to make them wireless. The problem is the adaptor has to plug into both ports on the PS2 and then a wireless piece sits on the floor where you plug your controllers into. Nothing is working for us when we try to use the wireless adaptor. We're only trying to plug one controller in, yet it wont even read that. Could it be that both ports have to work in order for the adaptor to able to send a signal to the wireless piece to pick up the controller?

Thanks.
