Well, I was going to solder a new colored WIFI LED in, but ran into an issue.

My initial plan was that i was just going to desolder the other one, and look at the charge on the bottom. But then.. The LED kinda fell and a lost orientation. I have no worldly clue which end it needs to be at positive, and which end needs to be negative :/

I'd take a pic, but it's so small that my crappy camera won't take it clear enough :[

Help please!! >_<

The point on the left is positive and the right is negative. I'm not 100% sure though.

This is assuming that the mobo is right side up, with the LED on the left side?

And what are you basing this off of? Lol, this is a lot of money and im worried. :[

GhoSt_Death; Thanks a ton. I really appreciate that, I was looking for something along those lines. My PSP's mobo does look a lot different than that, though. I have a phat PSP, mobo TA-086. There's two lines, with two of those black things side by side..i'm hoping it doesn't make a huge difference >_>

The TA-086 shouldn't be different. I just took a look at one I had and it looks like the picture.

yea Im 99% sure on a fat mobo (+) is always what I would say is closest to the left edge (looking at it in normal position)
