This is a very common fault with the Playstation Portable (PSP) both original and Slim & lite consoles. It is generally caused when there is some problem with a routine firmware upgrade. For example if the power cable is removed during the update, this can cause the PSP Slim & lite to become what is known as 'bricked'. What this means is that the software built in to the mainboard of the console has become corrupt, preventing it from working. This problem can also occur if a user attempts to install customer firmware (for the purpose of playing backups, ISO or eboots from the memory card). Console Doctor can fix this problem on the PSP 2000 by restoring the firmware to its previous state.
Book your console under this fault if you experience any or all of these symptoms:
- The green light comes on when the power switch is pressed, however nothing appears on the screen.
- No sound is heard, UMD disks will not attempt to load.
- Your PSP may appear completely dead other than the power indicator.
- Sometimes the green light will turn off after a minute or so.
