Einleitung

Is your Memory Slot just not performing as well as it used to? Fix it!

    • Place PSP face down, so that the UMD Drive is facing upwards.

    • Locate the battery door and open.

    • Remove the battery from inside.

    • This step requires the removal of the warranty sticker. Removing the sticker will void the warranty. According to the FTC removing this will not void your warranty.

    • Locate the sticker in the battery compartment labeled: "En: Warranty Void if Seal Damaged."

    • Remove the sticker using the PSP Opening Tools.

    • Under the sticker is a 5mm Phillips screw needed in the next step.

    • Remove four 5 mm Phillips from the case.

    • If the screws stick in the case, you can use a magnetized screwdriver to draw them out.

    • Remove the following screws from around the bezel:

    • Two 4 mm Phillips

    • One 5 mm Phillips

    • The two shorter 4 mm screws are on the top of the PSP; the longer 5 mm screw is on the bottom.

    Beware that some models of PSP 2000 (mine is a limited edition Crisis Core FF7 silver version, so I suppose it is related to it being a japanese PSP) have 2 minute TORX screws (T1? T2?) instead of the 2x 4mm Phillips pointed in orange around the USB port.

    • Gently pry the front bezel away from the casing using a PSP opening tool.

    • Start on the right hand side of the PSP bezel, and carefully work the tool around the side.

    • If you want to clean the control buttons or D-pad, you can easily pop them out once the faceplate is off and wipe them clean.

    • With the home bar out of the way, gently pry up the display using the opening tools.

    • There is another ribbon cable attached to the bottom of the LCD. Be careful not to damage either of the connectors when removing.

    • Lift the black tabs of the ribbon cable connectors using a opening tool. Pull the ribbons out towards the bottom of the PSP to disconnect.

    • Gently lift out the display.

    There are 2 ribbons connected to the screen. Both of them have to be disconnected in order to remove the screen.
