Hello,
My PSP 2000's UMD switch/sensor (what looks like a tooth) near the lens has broken. What are my options in correcting this? Am I right in thinking that I cannot play any UMD games without this part?
I am not very competent in soldering/desoldering so desoldering the old switch and soldering a new one is a last resort!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you and regards.

i have stuck toothpicks in them to hold them down and broke them off inside to get it working until i can do a permanent fix on it, you may try that.

Hmm...seems OK to try! Also, I thought of getting a replacement switch & breaking off the tooth-like part & pasting that on the original switch. Now the problem is the other switch near the door (the black one) which is also broken. I bought the motherboard used so the previous owner must have been hamhanded!

No UMD movies for you and you can't rip a game.
