Sony PSP E1004 No backlight - Black screen Repair Fix 

No sé si entiendes español: si quitas un smd de esos pequeños y haces un puente con un cable o con estaño mismo, funcionan las cosas? No se queman los demás componentes? Bad english: If you remove an SMD and connect with a wire, the pcb works? Thanks!

@@TuMalaCon100cia For this specific smd it's ok to replace it a tin wire, I don't know about the other ones.

The specific SMD component I've replaced is a fuse. The better solution is to replace it with a new one. If you don't have any you can use 0 Ohm resistor. If you have nothing of this then you can use a very thin wire and I mean very thin because next time you'll have a problem with the backlight it can fry your motherboard.

@@PlusComputersService can u give me a link where i can buy the "very thin wire" or the fuse/SMD thanks

@@PlusComputersService i have the situation where the lcd now has got any light,system has sound,but no light is present.Even with flashlight it is not showing.If i replace it with broken lcd,i did have sound neither.Board or lcd?

You're welcome.

I've replaced the fuse.

Did it work?

Did it work?

You can measure the fuse with a multimeter, if it's bad replace it.

Nothing, just take it to someone who has them. A repair shop for example.

Use thin wire instead because next time you will fry the screen or motherboard.

Of course the problem can be somewhere else. It can be a bad display also. If you can see the image as in the video then measure the voltage of the fuse. If it reads ok then try another display.

@@PlusComputersService I did the same thing you did, I lit up the screen, it shows, I don't think it's the display, I made a bridge with a fine copper wire as read in some comments, unfortunately it doesn't work, maybe the bridge isn't good ?, besides the resistance, there may be some other problem, sorry for asking, I didn't understand. thank you very much.

@@PlusComputersService Can you help me? Did I manage to make you understand my problem? can you help me? i dont have another display, thanks

@@stefanosinibaldi7921 And how am I suppose to help you? I told you what to do in the previous comment.

​@@YargNayrod I told you to measure the backlight line at the fuse you've replaced. You need to check if there is voltage for the begining. Screen can look good but the backligh inside it can be bad. No one told me to just replace the fuse, as you can see in the video I measured if it's good at the begining and then replaced it.

Unfortunately no. I don't have any material ( pics or video ) about replacing memory card slot.

okay, so can you answer me something. I can hear the sound, use buttons but I cannot see anything on screen. The screen works on other psp but not on this one. What can I do ?

@@abdullahalyafi8789 Do the same as I did in this video. Check the fuse and if it's bad replace it.

Yes, it could be. Check all the fuses on the motherboard.

@@PlusComputersService i already checked all fuses and they work but i notice that : 1 conector of LCD (the small One ) have 1 pin broken , This could be the reason ? What should i do?

@@humberto3793 Yes it must be. The small connector is for the backlight. You should replace it or find a way to fix that pin.

You can do it with a soldering iron if you know how.

@@PlusComputersService Thx so much. And i want to ask another thing, i saw that you said that we can use a very thin wire instead of 0 ohm resisstor. How thin it should be? A wire from my charger is ok?

@@theshuttel Depends of the charger. It must be about1/4 of the fuses pad.

Yes, this is flux. You can buy 0 Ohm SMD resistor

awesome, I ordered that, thank you so much! You guys in Greece seem to have quite a lot going with PSPs - I've seen people selling nice PSPs, rare replacement parts being available... are they still popular in Greece?

@@casianfd You're welcome. No, they are not anymore that's why everybody is selling them.

Hi. Yes, if there is same size 0 ohm resistor you can use it.

@@PlusComputersService oh thank you for the fast reply sir. your video here inspired me to do it since i really want too fix up my psp.

By measuring with a multimeter.

@@PlusComputersService oh okay thanks

​@@PlusComputersService oh also what has possibly happened when my psp street has no backlight and also no sound

​@@consolegamer0075with no sound maybe the connector is not fully connected on the other site i had this problem but after few tryes i could hear the music. Tho i still have a problem with no backlight and joystick won't work + some buttons on the front panel

I don't remember the exact parameters now but you can just use 0 Ohm resistor also.

Fuse 0.5A - SMD 0603 (F4001)

Reconnect the screen cable.

Robert Escucharo Jr Hi. I've replaced the fuse.

You can use 0 Ohm resistor 0603 size if I remember correctly.

@@PlusComputersService sir they dont have 0 ohm , and very thin wire

@@PlusComputersService sir can you tell me the exact names please im here now at electronic shop

It will be a big help sir if i fix the psp street , my daughter likes it Badly , i dont have much money to buy her a new one

@@caits4137 What do you mean the exact names. I'm telling you that you need 0 Ohm resistor.

Same size with the fuse of course.

Hi. You need to test the fuse with a multimeter.

@@PlusComputersService what is a multimeter? Mine also works before I take it apart then after assembling it. The backlight problem occur I dunno how to fix it or find the backlight fuse. Mine is 3000 model dunno if its 3004 I cant remeber

@@dominicvirtudes6593 If tou don't know what is multimeter then it's better to take it to someone who knows how to repair it or you can damage it more than it is already.

@@PlusComputersService I hope I can still find someone who does repairing

@@PlusComputersService if the backlight fuse is the problem then it can also be solved if I change the motherboard? Of it will still just the same?

Raj Oraon Disassemble your console and clean the contact of that button, test and let me know.

is that work

Raj Oraon What do you mean?

If you have the same problem then no. The problem is on the motherboard not in the screen.

Nitesh Kumar You can use 0 ohm resistor or use a very thin wire if you don't have one.

Yes, it is possible but you need a soldering station with a thin tip, hot air soldering station and of course a spare connector.

And you got to exactly solder correctly don't do it if you can't find someone who can at least there people like me that do it properly and ask for a little in return for expert that can get the job done right way it suspose to be

No you can't

You're welcome )

@@PlusComputersService Thanks my psp isn't charging can you help me?

@@josemango60 check if the voltage goes to the motherboard. Usually it's a bad dc jack.

@@PlusComputersService Yes I will try

You can replace it with 0 Ohm resistor which you can scrap from another board or buy in electronics store. You can also use a very thin wire.

Glad to hear that.

You're welcome

How can I repair your PSP? I live in Greece.

@@PlusComputersService ok but i live in India

Hi. Check this link gbatemp.net/threads/psp-street-e1000-extended-battery-permanent-mod.474302/

There is a mute button if you didn't know.

@@PlusComputersService he meant, that you didn't say anything, just do something. I personally don't understand. Can you explain it what are you doing in the video please?

Just check all the fuses on the motherboard.

@@PlusComputersService ok thank you
