Blown Fuse maybe? http://www.mr-vizitkin.ru/images/stories/psp_fuse.jpg ^^ Fuses for PSP GO. The one on the right is for Audio - so the one *under* the metal shielding may well be your power Fuse. I would suggest testing with a multimeter to confirm. If you are going to bridge it then a Circuit Writer pen is the easiest - just practice on something other than the psp so you get used to the flow.

As long as you switch out the blu ray boards as they are tied to the motherboard you could use a newer drive. But i had this problem with my phat before it went YLOD. Things i noticed were that the fan never increased in tempo - just sat being quiet and it used to change speed quite a lot when playing blu ray movies. Is it possible that the fan is not doing its job? Could be an overheating issue. As it is a 40GB Model there is a fan test built in : Power off at rear switch - press and hold eject - then power on switch. See if the fan test completes successfully. If it does then focus on the blu ray drive - and if you are planning on using a new laser it may not fit on the rails but an entire drive is inter changeable (swap the blue ray boards though)

well, It could be the Power fuse going if the fuses are similar setup to the DS - On a DS if F1 is blown it will work from battery but not AC. Anyway here is a fuse guie you may want to have a quick look at: http://www.llamma.com/PSP/repair/PSP_fus...

That link is for the old PSP versions. http://www.mr-vizitkin.ru/images/stories/psp_fuse.jpg ^^ Fuses for PSP GO.

I have ordered some DS F1/F2 power fuses to see if they are compatable but i dont believe they are rated the same.

Hi, First things first ;- Clean out the headphone port with a cotten bud. Make sure the device is free from lint etc. Test headphone is working. Leave headphone plugged and attach to power supply via dock. Check headphone. If the headphone kicks in from either of these 2 tests it will be a blown fuse. I am trying to source a replacement fuse but i cannot seem to find a suitable fuse so i have "bridged it" with some kynar wire. Source: Loss of audio Output From Units speakers.. Hope this helps you out. In my experiance with all variations of the PSP it is rarely the softwares fault. The software may error but it will error due to a hardware issue.

Posted as an answer for someone else but relevant to your situation now: Error 8002F14E [General Hardware Issue] Problems: It could be simply locked in an update loop. Your PS3 can be saved. Recheck all connections and cables and/or re-seating your hard drive. Warning!!! Whatever you do don't format the hard drive you used in the Update Flashing of your PS3 if it's looping. If you do, it could keep it from ever finishing that update. This is why Sony wants you to send in your hard drive with your PS3 for repairs. In case it's related to this update process. But the actual flashing of PS3's Nand doesn't complete until it reaches 100% and reboots. What's happening is that the PS3 is running in Nand flash mode. The Nand (one adjacent to Super Companion/south bridge) has NOT been flashed until this phase is complete. Your PS3 is checking your entire system hardware for faults. If it finds one, then you'll get that 8002F14E code (or similar) and it won't complete until you fix the hardware problem it found....

Sounds daft, but have you tried hitting the reset button on the back? Similar to the six-axis controllers look for a little hole big enough for a paperclip and depress the switch for approx 10 secs. Then try and sync the device.
