Defected powerboard; Wanna fix it
« on: July 30, 2009, 10:49:45 PM »
Basically, I waited around 2 weeks to get this power board from Dealextreme.
It finally came, but when I hooked it up to my psp, it didn't work; the charge light went on(There was no charger, my psp was on its battery) and the switch didn't work at all.
Here's a picture of it(Sorry, it's a little blurry; my camera is extremely annoying when it comes to taking macro pics.)


I circled what I suspected to be the problem, but I'm not too sure so I'll leave it to you experts here. :tup:
I wanna fix it cause I waited too long for this thing, and don't want to wait several more weeks to get a replacement.

The spot you pointed out is bridged (i think lol cant really tell) i don't think its supposed to be bridged try to remove some of the solder so that its connecting any more and then try it again.
