Hi there!
When you charge your PSP with the charger (USB/wall) does the power light turn to amber? If it does not, It's possible that your charger (USB/wall) is already broken. You may need to purchase a new one.
If it does, you may have either a loose power switch (which happens on my PSP Go) or you may need to have your unit checked with a qualified technician.
Hope this helps!

My psp wont start i left it on charge 1 and half

If when you plug in your PSP it lights up as like it is charging but this still happens I would guess it is a battery issue.

Your best solution, sadly, would be to go and buy a new PSP battery because your current one had been used for too long and has died.

Hope that helps, if it did please rate me, if it didn't please message me and I'll help you further if I can.

Thanks,

PSP cannot turn on

keeping Lithium ion batteries(found in ur psp) idle for such a long time without charging may discharge them compleatly and even if you try to charge them they will not function. this seems to be a problem with your battries not ur PSP. try to get it replaced from the dealer you bought the PSP from. hope this solves your problem.. :D

Hi there.
The battery could be faulty, power off the laptop, take out the AC power and the battery wait 2 minutes and put the battery back in, turn the laptop an and look at the indicator LED to see if its changed, if it has plug in AC power and see if its the same.

Good luck and thanks for choosing FixYa!!
