Hi, I'm new here but i've done a lot of reading on this forum...
I was about to start my first portable, and I decided to test out my newly bought psone screen, but, since I don't have any 7.5 volt wall plug, I've connected it to a 7,2 volts Li-On battery from my sony camcorder ...
It worked fine the first time but I didn't put any video source, so I decided to try it with a video source a second time ...
But the second time I think I've inverted the + and the - ...
Well ... you can guess what hapened: nothing ...
And now it's not working no matter what I do, neither the screen or the speaker ...
Do any of you know how to fix this ? I hope it's simply a fuse or something ...
Thanks you for your help !
ps: If my english is bad, sorry.

Sorry for this double post, I just read back ben's book to see that I might try to bypass PS1 fuse !! Happy me: it works ! I'll not mess with + and - anymore ... !
But I still have one problem ...
I can't get the screen to display the image i'm sending it ...
I use a RCA (yellows red white cable) to mini jack plug and simply plug it behind it, then power it up and nothing shows ...
At least now I can see a backlighted black screen instead of a light paperweight ...
If anyone can help ...

Well I didn't soldered anything, I just plugged a audio/video mini jack to it, But I think that the problem is that this cable got something that looks like 120uf capacitor in it because it come from a mini dvd player and that the compagny that made it wished to save space in the dvd player ... I,ma try it with a camcorder cable instead soon .
THank you for the help anyway !

Well if you haven't soldered it directly to the board yet, why not just try that?-=FamilyGuy=- wrote:Well I didn't soldered anything, I just plugged a audio/video mini jack to it, But I think that the problem is that this cable got something that looks like 120uf capacitor in it because it come from a mini dvd player and that the compagny that made it wished to save space in the dvd player ...

Probably. It's just an easily-blown fuse.Mario wrote:So, I just connect the ends of the component together and my screen will work?ShockSlayer wrote:Mario wrote:Can you post a picture of the fuse and how to bypass it?

Bridging the headphone points gets you speaker audio, it has nothing to do with the video.-=FamilyGuy=- wrote:News: I just soldered my audio and video input to the pins and it worked like a charm. thank you for your help.
PS: I didn't had to bridge the 3 Headphones points ...
Thank you

I meant that I didn't bridge the 3 points and that I got audio form the psone speakers ...CronoTriggerfan wrote:Bridging the headphone points gets you speaker audio, it has nothing to do with the video.-=FamilyGuy=- wrote:News: I just soldered my audio and video input to the pins and it worked like a charm. thank you for your help.
