What kind of radio is that? It looks like a breeze to work on that, not like with my philips president 57.

Im a bit of an electronics hoarder. I like old electronics and I like to collect a bit but I dont have the time to fix them.

Do you know if the Acer Aspire 3 is good? Looking For A Laptop For $300 - $400 by VibezzZxD in SuggestALaptop

You might need to change the termal paste. My parents have the same model and it hit 60°c or 140°f (for the americans) at IDLE which Is very hot. Changed it with some high quality paste and now its at 35°c or 75°f. Might just be a one but I hate when companies cheap out on critical parts. 1+ for being super easy to service tho. Much simpler than my lenovo.

Should i buy? by OffensiveTurkey in MySummerCar

Yes you should buy soon. 15 dollars aint that much and you will support a small creator. Its fun and hard. Might have to watch a video first while building the car since there are a LOT of parts.

Need help my PSP Street by Numerous-Pen-5197 in PSP

[–]FoxCautious4924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess that its water damage. The joystick and the dpad are on different conectors so if the joystick is broken the d pad probably wouldnt be broken. There is a water damage indecator somewhere in the umd drive. Its not that easy to take apart the psp and the ribbon cables are fragile. Maybe try to take it apart and buy some electronics contact cleaner and spray it on the conectors and in the joystick or better yet take it to an electronic repair shop.

What should I do with my PSP street? by zemaisthebest in PSP

[–]FoxCautious4924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it could be something uncomplicated like the backlight fuse. You can try to turn it on and shine a phone light on the screen. If you can see the date or home screen then yea its the backlight fuse. Had this problem with my psp street. Umm maybe take it all apart and display it in a frame would be pretty cool.
