[Help] Unresponsive Start & Home Button
Emptyone
So Lately my Home button is unresponsive,
And my Friend's Start button is as well.

The problem is that they always seem to be "On" , or like they are being pressed.
I opened my PSP and can tell that the problem isn't just something stuck between
the buttons or anything .

Both are 2000 model PSPs
Anybody have any experience with this kind of issue Yay ?

the strip is easy as hell to replace if it is a 1000, not sure about 2000 or 3000

or if you're US

take the screws off of the back and the one at the bottom, turn over. The faceplate should lift off, revealing the bar. Pop it off, and unclip the connection. Put the new one in, reassemble. ;D
