  • In this video I show you how to replace a joystick on a PSP 2000/3000 to stop any joystick drift/ghost movement you might have. It's fairly similar to do on a PSP 1000, it's just that the joystick attaches to the faceplate whereas the 2000/3000 attaches to the main board. Thank you for watching! Please leave any feedback in the comments as I love to read it! Thank you!

    The info about the little rubber/plastic bit in the analogue stick was exactly what I needed, solid video man

    Fantastic video! I was able to easily fix the drift on my psp 2001 following your guide. A few pointers for anyone attempting this -
    I didn't have to lift the motherboard to take out the joystick.
    Thoroughly cleaning the joystick (not just the cap) with a toothbrush might do the trick if you don't have access to a replacement.
    When reassembling, the bottom button strip's ribbon cable might come loose, so it's best to check the connection before popping the screen back in.
    Cheers.

    I hadn't opened my console until today and had already ordered an Analog supposedly for PSP series 3000 (mine is 3006) but I noticed my console doesn't have a flex and this one I ordered does, kind of a stupid question but will it work on my console?

      @TheBygoneEra  2 роки тому +1

      I believe there is a software mod you can do that places a battery icon up the top of the screen constantly, could be something to look into

    hello ! I have this super weird issue with the joystick: it works but sometimes when I play & when I make it go up my character starts walking suuuper slow out of nowhere, at first I thought it was bc of HP but not at all; and if I power it off/on it suddenly works again but it always does it again after playing for some time, what should I do and what do you think is the issue?

    • @TheBygoneEra
      @TheBygoneEra  2 роки тому +2

      For a super simple fix, you might be able to get around the issue by wiggling the joystick like crazy when it first starts to happen. For a more permanent fix, I’d say it’s probably the small clear rubbery rectangle piece that needs replacing as they can wear out and I believe that’s one of the issues that can be caused by that
