Hi! My PSP 2000 is currently not working, when I try to turn it on, the backlight will come on and then it shuts down, usually accompanied by a pop and a WiFi light blink. Once in a while it will actually get to the time set screen or the XMB, but shortly after it will either shut down or go into sleep mode. Sometimes it also turns on as soon as I plug the charger or the battery, but then it turns off as usual. The problem started with it sometimes not wanting to turn on after using a battery, so i removed the clock capacitor, but that didn't seem to make much of a difference. I already checked the fuses and they are OK. I've seen some people talking online, could this be some bad/cracked BGA solder? Here's a video of the issue (excuse the battery, the cell is actually new)
I measured the power switch with a multimiter, it's alright and putting it on hold doesn't change anything. It's also not bricked, it worked fine and I didn't do anything to brick it. Inserting a SD card makes the orange LED flash while booting, but it still doesn't work. Holding L or R or home also didn't work
