The analog stick, or joystick, is the small round knob that's used to control the movement of game characters in just about
every video game ever made. This means that not only is it used constantly but also rather vigorously and therefore it's
usually the first part to give out on a PSP. Most often the analog stick stem itself will snap off but sometimes the damage is
internal giving a very definite grinding feeling to the stick and/or strange character movements when a game is played.
The good news here is that they're extremely easy to replace when you have the right tools and instructions on how to go
about getting the job done right. The do-it-yourself kits advertised above provide both of these items as well as a brand new
top quality analog stick assembly with an original PSP size thumbpad. Armed with these items pretty much anyone that can
read is assured a successful no-hassle repair . Step-by-step instructions and the proper tools make it a pretty much foolproof
endeavour even if you can't tell the back of a PSP from the front. It takes about 20 minutes from start to finish and I've had
thousands of happy customers experiencing no install problems whatsoever so I'm confident in saying there's nothing to fear.
If it's obvious the analog stick is causing a problem in your PSP replacing the entire assembly is the answer no matter how
broken the assembly is or how it got that way. If the outer thumbpad is missing or broken a new original PSP size thumbpad is
included. This in itself is helpful as the after-market oversized thumbpads a lot of people have considerably shortens the
lifespan of the entire assembly so Sony's original is definitely the way to go.
If you like the idea of fixing it yourself just click the button above and you can have your PSP back to working good as new in
just a few days. Taking this route saves the postage mailing your PSP off to someone, the time waiting to get it back, and the
cost of somebody else's labor. The first thing to do though is make sure to order the right kit. The analog assembly for an older
1001 model PSP is entirely different than one for a newer 2001 or 3001 model so if you're not sure what you have get the
model number off of the barcode label on your PSP before ordering. It'll say PSP-1001, PSP-2001 or PSP-3001, along with a
string of numbers. Unfortunately replacing the analog stick in a 3001 model is a lot more complicated than a 1001 or 2001 so
I currently handle those repairs myself but chances are your PSP is one of the two main models that are covered.
That said, if you've determined that a new analog stick assembly is needed but you'd rather I do the job instead the charge is
$59 which includes the exact same new part, labor, and return Priority Mail shipping. Your PSP will also get the once-over to
make sure nothing else is wrong and a good clean-up to boot. Once it arrives here you should have it back good as new in
about a week and as this is a very straightforward repair you can help hurry things along by paying up front. If there's any
question as to what's needed then hold off on sending payment until I have a chance to check it out, otherwise mailing a check
or money order for the $59 along with the PSP is a pretty safe bet. In any case, you can always pay later with a debit/credit
card and it comes through instantly so it doesn't take that much longer anyway. If it turns out that something unexpected
crops up I'll let you know and you can decide at that point whether to continue with the repair or not. Diagnosis is free so even
if you just change your mind for no reason there's no charge for my time unless I actually fix it.
