broken psp

[nevekd128]

i did a sond mod through the speakers and a week later it jus crashed and pandora wont work. when u switch it on it goes on a second then shuts off whats wrong

[psp339]

Something is causing a short or the motherboard died. That happened to me before and the motherboard just stopped working after a sound mod.  The green light just flashes a sec then shuts off.

[nevekd128]

but it worked for a few days before this happened.

[psp339]

Maybe a wire got loose. Take PSP apart and check for loose wires.

[nevekd128]

tried that and i even held a wire bridging the power fuse and that dint work either.
i tried pandora and it froze up about 10 seconds into installing the firmware

I wouldn't try bridging the power fuse because its obvious that the PSP can turn on. I'd try taking out the mod and checking for frayed wires or and wires extending on to the motherboard

i bridged my power fuse, its still bridged and mah psp works fine lol
it seems u might have a short on ur mobo somehwere, if its actualy turning on but freezing then some chip or sumthing on the mobo could be messed up, might be alot of work to figure out whats wrong tho...

[VoX]

I mean because when the power fuse is blown the PSP doesn't turn on at all, his does so there is no need to and it can lead to your motherboard frying

[ApheX]

please correct me if i'm wrong but a little while ago, someone said there is a speaker fuse on the mobo. if that had blown could that be causing the problem. like i said, i'm not sure but it's worth a look.

[Ch4rL13]

i think there is a speaker fuse, except wut would that have to do with the entire psp not working..
although that makes sence and could be the cause
ofcourse were jus making a bunch of educated guess's so, use at own risk =P

[socomhacker239]

haha i did the exact same thing heres what i did so i had some bright ideas :P an so i took a little screwdriver an started pokin around my mobo an jus seein what happens when i bridge fuses caps ect so i got by the speaker fuses an caps an i was playin music an bridged a cap or fuse next thing i know the psp only turns on for a split second then shuts off an a pandora dosent work so i hope i help
(ME AN MY BRIGHT IDEAS LOL)

[Ch4rL13]

lol, bridging connections like that is dangoreous, i had this old modem and i was do that and i put a screw driver on 2 contacts thing while it was on and a big spark came out then shut off.. lol
maybe this only happens wen the psp is playing music tho..
sry i'd write more but i stayed up all night and im starting to doze off..

[nevekd128]

okay the sound fuse would make since cause i wired my leds through the speakers but can someone point out where it is in a picture please? id be extremly grateful

[nevekd128]

srry to double post but please help

So you said it ran long enough to get into the install ?????? and then died ?

If that is so then look at the address data lines. It starts to go into restore mode then dies tells me the motherboard is not fried. It can run just gets lost.

Am I getting this correct ?

[nevekd128]

kinda
but can u brick the 3.90m33 and not be able to restore it cause i put it on for someone who has now clue about psps
i am only able to get it to come on with pandora every 3 to four trys then when i try to reinstall the firmware it freezes and bricks it.
but i keep trying and the pandora works in a working psp too

[nevekd128]

i relly need help someone help me please.

[gr8npwrfl]

Which software are you trying to restore the PSP with ?

Are you using UPMS installer ?

Cementario ?

I just wanted to know if you run any other option does it brick or only the restore ?

Also the boards are normally very clean, take the best magnifying glass you can and inspect the board
from one end to the other very carefully. Look for anything that looks out of the ordinary.

Did you take the board out of the PSP completely ? Where did you do it ? Did you use a static wrist strap ?

I have seen boards that have no mods done to them get damaged by static electricity run for weeks and then
suddenly die.
