Forums - Sony - My PSP-2000's memory stick acces indicator light is stuck on

It is not at full intensity. It is quite dim, but it must be draining my battery progressively, so I'd like to fix a solution. It only started yesterday, and I don't think it really suffered any trauma. I tried removing the memory stick, yet it stays on; I've tried reformating it, yet it stays on. The only way to turn it off is to remove the battery pack, which is not really a viable solution.

Anyone have a suggestion as to what to do? It is only a minor inconvenience.

Is it a new psp?



Non, Novembre 2007.



Ca va c'est pas trop vieux, si elle était plus vieille je t'aurais dit qu'elle est peut etre usée, vu que la mienne fait quasi la meme chose ...



Que fait la tienne?

a peu près la meme chose, sauf qu'elle clignote tt le temps au lieu d'etre faiblement allumé



Try taking the battery out and putting it back in. If you know circuits, you could try cutting the circuit to the light, but that might create as many problems as it solves.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I've tried the removing the battery. The problem persists if once I put it back in. If I left the battery out for long enough, might that help somehow? Is there some sort of reset button?

Sounds like your best bet.

I've never heard of this issue b4.

The problem has spread to the power button (which now remains dim when power is off). This last week I started using it as an MP3 players on walks with dog and I wonder if the cold temperatures and a bit of snow might have brought this on.

The leaving out the battery for an extended period of time has not fixed it. I bought a psp travel case Friday, maybe I got it one week too late.
