I'm Guessing here, I haven't worked on psp's for a while now. It won't hurt to give it a try.



EDIT: The copper lettering on the picture (eg. CN4902) are ground

As long as that two points is ground, it should work.

OR if that does not work you can mod the backlight and but in some white 0603's in there. I have done it once and it worked pretty good
