One of my buttons had gone a bit dodgy - PSP-Forum.com

*Andy* · 10-18-2005, 02:56 PM

The square button seems to push down more on one side now than any of the others. On closer inspection i can see a piece of wire/metal down the side of the button like one side has come unclipped :? It still works ok but is a little annoying and nobody seems to have a psp in stock for me to go and change it! :evil: Has anybody else had a problem like this or am i being paranoid?

Cheers :P

it seems as if you've added a lot of pressure to the squre button,hence making it push down more,maybe your just heavy handed who knows.you should be ok with changing it provided you dont tell them this

dont see how this could happen unless you have ripped the rubber fitting whichs gives the button its spring.

animal mother · 10-18-2005, 07:29 PM

Ive just been reading about lots of psp's being returned due to sticky/faulty square buttons :shock: Maybe mine has this then.

I can see a type of wire down the side of the button. Is this normall then mate? Does your button push in on one side more than the other? (if you know what i mean) Im sure it never did it when i got it :? Unless it did and thats what sony did to fix the button problem. Im all :?
