Hi, this 'trying to fix' video shows me attempting to repair a faulty PSP Go (PlayStation Portable Go) with no display.
Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things.
I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series.
Many thanks, Vince.

The chip can stand the amount of heat that it would take to melt the solder. The way those boards are made the chip is placed on some solder paste and the whole thing is put through an oven.
I snapped my ankle during jiu-jitsu training. I've since been stuck on my bed and couch.
You’re my real hero Vince! You gave me a big smile on my face when the screen came on! Merry Christmas :)
This channel puts me in a good freakin mood for some reason. You go through your day dealing with this and that, so maybe witnessing people are learning and growing through experience helps to internalize better vibes.
Great video! Sounds like a cracked BGA point to me! Although what sometimes happens with these is the pad sheers off the PCB with an impact (or the solder just cracks on one or more points). That's why pressure helps. I would probably try reflowing it as you suggested, if that doesn't provide a reliable fix you would need to remove it with hot air and reball it - not something I would dare try tbh lol - too small for my liking lol! Lovely systems these!
Merry Christmas Vince! Only descovered your channel this year but really enjoy your content keep up the good work
This was a pure joy to watch! Keep it up Vince.
Hope there's a part 2 since it has been generously gifted to you for Christmas. That was good. I like the way you cautiously progressed with it. Merry Christmas dude!
Yet another great video! Good idea with the packing. And not only packing - but thermal pads ... on a chip - brilliant thinking! You've probably given it back now - but I'd of gone with a reflow myself. You wouldn't of damaged the chip, they're built to handle heat. I've never been brave enough to do a full BGA chip removal, clean up and re-ball myself (and don't have any of those sort of tools myself like BGA templates or the clamps, etc). Some people might say a reflow is only a temporary fix, but repairs I've done where a reflow has worked - has never caused any further issues. The way I would see it, it's broke anyway... nothing to lose! But understand it's not yours, so not sure about making that call. Great diagnostics.
Dude... this video was entertaining as hell. I came to see some solutions for a PSP lcd screen and was really amused by your fix. Best part was when you noticed the backlight was on for the first time, amazing. The screen brightness flickering was also terrific. Thanks for your video and effort to solve it.
I love these vids, they're really good for background noise/chilling out.
Holy moly, i dont know what got into me. I have many chanels that im subscribed to on youtube, but i just cant wait for you to upload a new video. Man keep up the good work, you are doing extremely good job!
Merry Christmas Vince & family! 🎅🌲☃️🎁
I used to love my PSP GO. Man what a little gaming machine.
This video kept me on the edge of my seat. I root for you to find the problem in every episode!
Great video Vince. You inspired me to fix a few things myself and I now have a couple of ps vitas i fixed from 3 on ebay!
Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
entertaining. it was fun watching you undergo this challenge. I honestly thought it was a lost cause until you tapped that area of the board
Merry Chrstmas Vince :) a thanks for your awesome videos through out whole year :)
