PSP Slim backlight not turning on

[3r14nd]

I have 2 psp slims here.

one with a good back light

one with a .....idk it's bricked...the screen doesn't come on at all sound and everything works.

I took the screen from #2 and put it in #1 everything worked. I closed up the psp and turned it back on.  nothing....

take the face plate off and then turn it on again and the screen works you can see it boot. but backlight doesn't work.

so I put the screen back in #1 and the backlight turns on but no screen like normal....so the screen works...apparently I did something to the backlight plug on #1.  I think I blew a fuse somehow.  anybody know where to start?  I have pictures if needed..

sounds like the fuse just try to bridge it

LOL omg I had that same problem, I tryed bridging the fuse, nothing

Thats a problem I never fixed.... I ended up Sticking 4 0603 leds oneach side of the lcd so I could see, not really playable in brights areas of the day, but nice a night

Does anyone know which fuse goes to the backlight?

I haven't had time to site down and look at it again. I just had to go out and buy a new MultiMeter for testing.

What up 3r14nd, its UseCondomSense from maxconsole, anyway back on topic, have you tried sticking the LCD in the other PSP or did u just try 1 of them, if u haven't, try and see what happens, and if the same, it might just be ur LCD

[3r14nd]

I've tried it in both..the screen it's self works....

It's just the backlight will not turn on, on the psp in question.

Here's a pic showing where the fuse is. just bridge the connection with some solder.
