PSP Dead?

Ebenezor · 09-22-2009, 02:53 PM

Hi Everyone,
My 1st post is a cry for help.
I have a PSP-2003 pb Date code 7d (under battery) and bar code ending in D.
When battery is fitted (fully charged) I get a steady green light, If I connect charger I get a steady orange light (battery removed steady green)
The screen stays blank, no other lights or indications.
I bought a Pandora Battery and MMS I fitted and it made no difference whatsoever.
It does not connect to computer (computer does not see it)
Can anyone Help Please ?

Thanx
Ebenezor

Do you hear any sound coming from it when you turn it on?

Ebenezor · 09-22-2009, 04:57 PM

No sound whatsoever. Even if I put a disc in, it does not attempt to run/play it.

What were you doing before this happened?

Ebenezor · 09-22-2009, 05:27 PM

Nothing Really, I was on Holiday and never used it for a few weeks.
When I turned it on it was dead...except for lights explained in 1st post.
I charged it for 24 hours, Battery held charge but PSP never came to life...So I bought a Pandora Battery and Memory stick thinking it would be an instant fix :-(
Sadly it is still in same state.

To be exact in my description of problem.

If I fit original battery, green light stays lit for about 20 seconds.
If I fit Pandora battery, green light stays on (forever)

I am thinking this must be un-repairable with software or clicking my heels 3 times and reciting there is no place like home.

To get it to work again would a new motherboard solve my prob?
If so what board would I get? (is there a board that is more suitable than others?)

Thanx for help so far

Thanx for your suggestion Delon40.Sadly it did not make any difference :-(
I have downloaded various psp pandora programs/files to my memory stick including "The File you need" from this site.
As I stated in 1st post the computer can not communicate with PSP at all.
I can not format the Memory stick using the PSP, as it is dead.
So all I can do is insert the memory stick and install the battery pressing whatever buttons are suggested.

I will search for the sony link.

Thanx

well i heard that some psp dont show the service menu on the LCD so maby if you have a friend whit a psp you could try and see how it look or on youtube and try to select it blind (no screen) my first one was like that.

dude is there at least a black screen that appears???????if so then i think you are doing the procedures of using pandora wrongly............

Ebenezor · 09-23-2009, 04:03 PM

There is a Black screen....The same Black screen that is there without power or a Battery.

You are possibily correct about me not using the Pandora and MMS correctly.
I can not format the Stick in the PSP, because the PSP is in a Vegative state.
Perhaps the PSP is beyond repair, I just wanted to check with the Forum Guru's before buying another.

Many Thanx

if a friend has a psp use his or go to gamestop buy a new one try to fix yours and if you do fix return it for refund (30 days you can return anything i think)or format via pc right click on the drive if usb is working
