The PSP game console is controlled by a built-in joystick. It allows you to fully immerse yourself in the gaming world and enjoy the capabilities of modern devices. However, this happiness can quickly end in the event of a breakdown. You can make repairs yourself or with the help of a service department.
Instructions
Step 1
Contact service if your PSP game console is under warranty. Experienced craftsmen will quickly repair the damage to the joystick, and you can continue to enjoy the game world. However, in the absence of a warranty sheet or if the breakdown is not covered by the warranty case, repairs can sometimes cost almost as much as a new device. In this regard, it is necessary to learn how to repair the joystick yourself.
Step 2
Purchase spare parts for your PSP joystick. They can be found in specialty stores or in the radio market. This way, you can quickly replace a broken button or a missing spring. Also, be sure to have a thin screwdriver on hand, which will be needed in case of opening the device case.
Step 3
Use epoxy to self repair your PSP joystick. From this mass, you can make a broken button or replace a part of the punched case of the device. In this case, you must be careful not to accidentally fasten some parts tightly.
Step 4
Replace the loose spring if the joystick buttons begin to sink. To do this, you need to unscrew the device case. Take a camera and take a picture of the structure, so as not to forget where to attach which part. Remove the broken spring from the holder and replace it with a new one.
Step 5
Buy a new case for the PSP joystick if it is completely damaged and it is not possible to assemble the parts into one whole. A matching housing can be purchased from a dedicated game console store complete with new bolts.
Step 6
Debug the PSP joystick using special test programs that are installed in the console. Use plugins to set the sensitivity of the repaired buttons. In some cases, it will be necessary to re-enter the function assignment for each key.
