LED Flickering

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

LED Flickering

Post by coolin' »

I have used the psone lcd screen led mod, and it worked fine for awhile... Now one led, when it is connected, flickers horribly and makes the screen impossible to play on. THe other two work fine when it is not connected. What is making the led flicker? I think if the leads on the led were touching something it would just go dark completely, but it flickers, like as fast as a strobe light.

A bad connection is my guess, try resoldering the connection.

Depending on what LEDs you used, that might happen if it is backwards.
