To the right I have some pictures of what a broken LCD screen
often looks like in a Sony PSP. When an LCD screen breaks it's
not always quite so obvious though - some screens break in
such a way as to cause a discolored screen, or one with lines
running across or down. Some will cause a short circuit so the
whole PSP will turn off before you can see the screen at all and
many just stay black while you can still hear the start-up music
and load games normally. The glass LCD screen is a separate
component underneath the clear outer screen so you usually
can't see or feel the crack from the outside.
While this is the most common part to break in a PSP lots of
other things can go wrong too and this site is here to help you
get it back on the road again as quickly and painlessly as
possible. I handle all the mail-in repairs myself and I've put
together simple do-it-yourself PSP repair kits for many of the
less complicated repairs. This has proven very helpful for many
PSP owners that really need to get their console fixed as
cheaply as possible and/or would prefer not to send it off in the
mail. Either way, repair will almost always make better
economical sense than just giving up and buying a new console.
Links are above for the main PSP repair pages, FAQ's, DS lite
repairs, and so on. If you can't find what you need though you
can send me an email at LBrown@psprepairservice.com and I'll
be happy to answer any questions your may have. Thanks,
Lynn Brown

Just so you know I've been around for a while and know what I'm doing there's an article in our state newspaper - The Oklahoman - from January 2009.
There's a copy of the whole thing on the references page and it can be viewed on the newspaper website HERE.

PSP MODEL IDENTIFICATION
Before going any further be sure to know which model PSP you have. The first ones to come out were PSP-1001's almost all
of which are plain black. The newer models are called PSP Slims and the model numbers are normally PSP-2001 or
PSP-3001. All three work and look nearly the same with a few minor variations - PSP Slims are a bit thinner than 1001 and
PSP-3001's have a microphone, that sort of thing. They all play the same UMD games and require the same Sony version
updates from time to time. Inside though very few parts are interchangeable between models so it's important to find out
which model you have before ordering any new parts or a repair kit. All PSP's came out with a long sticker along the bottom
edge that will have the PSP-1001, 2001 or 3001 on it. The number is also at the top of the square sticker inside the battery
compartment and very rarely the numbers will end in a 4 or something - like PSP-1004. This last number doesn't matter at all
and sometimes you'll see people advertising them as a PSP-3000 model while the actual number is 3001 - the 1000, 2000 or
3000 is all that matters though.
If you by chance have a PSP with all the stickers removed you can tell a 1001 because it has a switch on the top edge that
says "OPEN" to open the UMD door. PSP Slims - both 2001 and 3001 models have a simple thumb tab and the whole door just
flicks open. If your PSP has a door that flicks open with no "OPEN" switch look for a tiny microphone hole on the front of the
console directly underneath the LCD screen and between the volume "+" and the "PSP". If there's a microphone hole it's a
3001 and if not it's a 2001. There's a newer console called a PSP Go which is entirely different but you'd know if that's what
you have I'm sure. I don't deal with those yet but I'm sure that will change in the near future :-)
