Post by: hevitikku on June 07, 2009, 02:49:41 AM: Pics are pretty bad, but i think you shorted it with that huge copper area there.
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: Cyk on June 07, 2009, 03:50:58 AM: so any idea how to fix it?
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: hevitikku on June 07, 2009, 10:17:09 AM: Just try to clean it up and check that theres no solder balls or anything like that that could short it. Good luck with it. If didnt help then try to get better pics.

Post by: EliteGamer83 on June 07, 2009, 11:28:29 AM: It's just hard to see much from those pics. I too had a problem with a non-lighting backlight on a 2000. I bridged it and still nothing. So I found out I had a bad backlight. Maybe when you ere soldering and accidentally dropped a minuscule amount of excess solder somewhere on your motherboard. Just sit down and look all over and see if you seeany soldering touching anything else then the backlight fuse.

Post by: Cyk on June 07, 2009, 11:32:50 AM: there are no solder balls u see that brown bronze thing on the motherboard at the backlight fuse what is that? is it inportant? and i can have better pic in a few weeks cause i dont have the camera right now i hope u still will answer this topic

ps can some1 upload there psp inside pic like mine so i know if its normal or not cause i dont know if it needs to be there or not that solder
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: hevitikku on June 07, 2009, 01:12:52 PM: That that brown bronze thing, "if you mean what i think you mean" is the area witch grounds the LCD cage. So yes it is pretty important. And i found this pic on net so you could check your solder: http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/261/fusiblespspvu5gq9.jpg (http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/261/fusiblespspvu5gq9.jpg) hope it helps.

And whats wrong with your bronze thingy?
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: Cyk on June 08, 2009, 06:46:08 AM: the bronze thing is a little burned of the solder
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: hevitikku on June 08, 2009, 09:13:22 AM: It shouldent matter if its just little burned... But if theres some solder between it and fuse or some other component, then that is possibly the thing that shorts, so check carefully is there any solder between that bronze thingy and any other component. If there is try to get it off carefully.

Post by: Cyk on June 08, 2009, 09:31:36 AM: does it matter if there is some glue on the fuse? (it was one of my attemps with glue :D)
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: hevitikku on June 08, 2009, 09:41:23 AM: Is the fuse still there? Just try to clean the spot from glue and take the fuse off if it's still there and put a piece of wire or a blob of solder there. Here's full tut for fixing it: http://www.llamma.com/PSP/repair/PSP_fuse_repair.htm (http://www.llamma.com/PSP/repair/PSP_fuse_repair.htm)

Post by: Cyk on June 08, 2009, 10:29:25 AM: yes the fuse is still there and how can i remove the backlight fuse lol
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: hevitikku on June 08, 2009, 10:31:56 AM: Desolder or just scratch it off carefully with a knife.
Title: Re: HELP
Post by: jakxxx on June 08, 2009, 10:44:51 AM: I would suggest getting a magnifying glass and check all around where you were working. I know you think you can see everything with just your bare eyes but its a lot easier to spot bridges with a glass.

just my 2 cents
