PSP trouble

I don't know why but one day my PSP stopped charging. I don't know if the issues is my charger or the PSP itself.
I even attempt to charge it by using the PS3 but it didn't work.
There was a point where if I just held onto the chager, it'd work. But it no longer does.

 

What version psp?

If you take out the battery, does it still turn on when on the charger?

Are you using CFW?

 

3000

Nope.

What's that?

 

Two possible problems then.

1. Your PSP's charging mechanism is broken.
2. Your charger is broken.

To figure out which it is, please answer a few questions.

* Does it turn on (without battery) via USB?
* Are you able to charge it via USB via the XMB?
* Does it charge with other PSP chargers?
* Does the connection area appear damaged?
* Are you able to access files on the memory card via the PSP when it is connected to a computer, assuming fully charged battery?

Also, can you elaborate on the psp/ps3 connection?

Just out of interest, do you know your firmware version?

 

*No
*No
*Haven't tried since I'm the only one with a PSP
*No
*Haven't tried it

um not too sure

Not sure as well.

 

Is it still under warranty? If so send it back to sony... They will fix it or send you a refurbished one..

 

its nothing to do with your psp,its your charger bro.same **** happened to me like a week ago.stupid thing stopped charging.thankfully my bro let me borrow his charger lol

 

ok well thankz for the advice people. I shall try the ideas out and then make my way to Best Buy if I still have issues.
Any other advice is welcomed ^^

 

Try out the chargers/batteries at Bestbuy. If they don't work, your PSP is broken.
