My psone screen is comepletely not working! help!
I connected my round grey psone screen to my 7.4v battery and I pressed the buttons and I got nothing,
my battery is fine and I am panicing a bit, if I am being obvously stupid or if my screen is fried please let me know.

Did the screen work before you connected the battery.?
and did the screen turn on but not display a picture.
And did the ps1 turn on.

Check your wires to the screen, keeping a close watch on polarity. make sure that you've got the video hooked up too
I've blown lots of these screens. Just a fact of life. Modding is not easy and death will abound. I've heard that a user has gone through tens of Gamecubes before getting the hang of wiring properly.

I figured out the problem, broken backlight.
Thanks for the help!

When I turn my screen on the backlight comes on and the sound comes through.
Is there anything I can do to fix it or am I boned?

@seanami .whats the problem? do you mean the backlight turns on but no picture.?

seanami, try different video sources.

I actually took it apart now and it has an opposite problem. LOL. Screen works, but backlight is out. The inverter connections have been lifted and it looks like it cracked.

I guess I have to find a replacement or can I get around this?

Try LED mod.
Easier,cheaper,better.

I thought there were issues with brightness? Or am I mistaken?
