Hi, my son bought a PSP while he was on holiday in South Africa, he was playing it without any problems but when it came to charging it, he couldn't, he gave it to me to sort out & as there was no orange light on when it was plugged in i assumed it was either the charger or the DC socket in the PSP. I took it round a mates & plugged his charger into it with the same results, i tried my battery in his PSP & that charged fine. I bought a new DC socket on ebay & have fitted it but guess what, still no joy.
Is there anybody who can give me advice other than the obvious (lighter fluid & matches).
Please help my son is gutted.
Cheers.

Well you could buy a dedicated wall charger if the psp works fine and you dont wish to spend very much like one of these HERE
Otherwise it could be disconnected on the motherboard somewhere and you may have to send it to sony or a repair shop.

sounds to me like the battery has died, the chip inside it if you ask me, if your battery works fine in it, it must be, buy a new battery and that should fix it.
