wanting to lose some weight and make some dough, I did a little house cleaning in my psp slim and took out the UMD disc reader tray.
That's all fine and good, but somehow, without even touching the arrow's connection cable, all my directionals are shot! when the ribbon cable is firmly in and the flap of the port is closed, the left button is constantly held down and the up/down arrows dont work (pressing the right just makes it jump back and forth).
when the connection's flap is up all of the buttons except for the left works, and the up/down are shifty... and if you apply pressure to the rig, the left will press. as far as I can tell all the other buttons work (/\ and [] are the only 2 that do something in the XMB, and all the buttons at the botttom work)
anything to do with cleaning the ports or just connections, etc? I really dont Havve the money to just buy a new slim and any help would be greatly appreciated.
FIXED: I looked at the bottom of the conductor, seems there was a slight crimp (either fingernail or screwdriver, who cares) which suppressed the thing, making it seem like a button was being pressed, good thing is this part is about 3 bucks on deal extreme, so I'm good to go!
