How to Repair / Replace Broken PSP LCD Screen

[TheAtraes]

@RepairsUniverse I followed all the steps great, and I am pretty sure that the screen is functioning, but the backlight doesn't work. Do you know what may have caused this?

[littlechocolate09]

I LOVE YOUR ACCENT!!!!

[coolsmile1234557689]

can you replace a psp 1000 lcd screen with a psp 3000

[RepairsUniverse]

@coolsmile1234557689 Sadly no, the LCD screens are not cross compatible.

[aeromanT1]

crap im stuck at the 4 clips where are they and how do you remove them???

[RepairsUniverse]

@aeromanT1 The clips will just need to be pried around to release the pressure around them. With the clips released, everything should come apart very easily.

[bloodzero5xres]

part of the casing around the power switch is stuck how do i get it un stuck...?

[harper9393]

i dropped mine down a flight of stone stairs >.> but the screen didnt break it was some little ass thing behing the screen which i need to remove to get to it, best video i found very clear and understandable, with out gay music and recored on a toaster LOL thanks

[RepairsUniverse]

@harper9393 No problem at all!

[pwo128]

Fabulous video. This one for the PSP and the one for the Blackberry Storm 9500 worked perfectly for me - thanks RepairsUniverse!

[RepairsUniverse]

@pwo128 No problem at all! Great job with your repairs!

[rfunk2897]

i cannot plug my screen back into the motherboard any advice

[RepairsUniverse]

@rfunk2897 Is the flex cables the correct size - correct PSP LCD screen? The PSP uses jaw connectors. Simply lift the back tab up and slide the cable in. Then lock it into place by pressing the tab back down.

[ImTrixuh]

Cracked mine by leaving it at the bottom of my bookbag. And threw books in

[RepairsUniverse]

@ImTrixuh That would do it! Sorry to hear. Replace that LCD screen and get it working again! Replacements are available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

[TobiToxic666]

my brother broke the screen of my psp because he sat on it T_T

[RepairsUniverse]

@TobiToxic666 Yeah, that would do it! Least it is a simple and fairly inexpensive repair.

[nixofpluto]

@TobiToxic666

I would kill him

[7RicolmE7]

i was making my bed and i dont watch my psp :O!!!!!!

[MartGTR]

Thx!

[epiceli1]

Thanks for the help great video (but next time make it brighter by turning on a light or something)

[curlybapz]

i have a very small indent on my psp screen barely noticible would it still be able to trade in u can only notice it when u look at it at a 90 degree angle

[tallyhoman911]

i cracked my psp by puting it in the back of my backpack and leaning against the wall xD

[RepairsUniverse]

@tallyhoman911 Yeah, pretty crazy how little pressure it takes to damage these LCD screens. May want to consider replacing the screen. We have these available at RepairsUniverse (dot) com.

[PS3GuitarMan]

@RepairsUniverse mines the opposite a weight just fell on mine !!!

[RepairsUniverse]

@PS3GuitarMan Sudden impact is a killer for these LCD screens... Just like a drop or fall, it does not take much to destroy these LCD screens. Luckily they are inexpensive to replace and a simple repair..

[dead2rites07]

[plutonicmind9]

Can the 1:15 part be done with a screw driver? And the screwdriver is #00, correct?

[RepairsUniverse]

@plutonicmind9 Yes, that part can be done with anything similar. And correct, #00 phillips.

[plutonicmind9]

@RepairsUniverse All right. Thanks a lot for the speedy reply, will finally fix my PSP 1001 that's been broken for years now



[MrPokemoncentral]

i gotta question my black thingy things that hold my screen broke can i fix it with tape?

[Typhlosio7V]

@MrPokemoncentral

Once you break the lcd connector you are fucking screwed.

I wish i was more careful.

The black clip shouldnt be a problem, try taping it and see what happens, heck as long as the cables in the connector you should be fine.

[brownboy252]

at 1:07 is it really ok to take that button board thing off? how would you get it back on?

[RepairsUniverse]

@brownboy252 Yes of course, it just clips back into place.

[dragonguy23]

My psp's lcd cracked, when I placed it in my pocket while in a car,

can it still be repaired even if the crack is huge?

[RepairsUniverse]

@dragonguy23 Yes, you just need the replacement screen. You can find these at RepairsUniverse (dot) com

[dragonguy23]

@RepairsUniverse ok then



[runhorun]

@RepairsUniverse yo I apreciate the website.... Sony wanted 85 dollars to fix the psp lcd screen. That is expensive... they are trying to profit even with a defective psp. Crazy.

[RepairsUniverse]

@runhorun Exactly why we started the website. Most charge outrageous prices, even if its their errors... Good luck fixing your PSP yourself!

Sounds like replacing the screen should resolve your problems. We have this available on the RepairsUniverse (dot) com web site.

[Biggernyou2]

Great video by the way, but my screen still will not turn on. There is sound, but no video. I have tried everything I can think of. Can you help me out?

[RepairsUniverse]

Have you checked all the connections? Make sure the lcd ribbons are in correctly.

[jimftr]

on the screen there are 2 ribbons yes? try putting the small one back in. That is what controls and enables the backlight.

[Betoladodgers]

yea theres two... i did, i put both in like 20 times but still wont work i think the backlights burned out or someshit

[elmitcho1]

hey repairs universe, i have dropped my psp and whenever i turn it on and start pressing buttons the screen will fade away. any ideas how i can fix this?

thanks

[ChieftanChris]

Wow very nice video that's really gonna help me out a lot. One question though, can I use the screen from an old black and bulky PsP to put into a new PsP 3000, or does the screen need to come from the same type?

[RepairsUniverse]

No, all the screens are different. We have all different models on our web site.

[djwhut98]

it needs to be the same type bcause the old psp lcd screen is bigger

[CCuunttNuGGet]

lawl, i wish they made the psp as indestructable as the gameboy advance was... the SP sucked, but the original gameboy advance was CRAZY, my friend litaraly threw his off the roof of his two story house and it wasnt even scratched! if they could make the psp liek THAT, it'd be awesome

[pkemr4]

@CCuunttNuGGet lol the dsi is hard to break for me note the psp is made of fiber glass or something which is easlly breakable

[True9Dragon]

My little brother broke my screen so this helped quite alot. Thanks man.
