I have many times repaired small electronics with this problem by checking the solder connections from the power jack to the circuit board.(I am self taught,not an expert)Anything that plugs in to the device can easily break the connections to the board.Electronic manufacturers do this construction technique to save space,but I would rather have the jacks connected to the board with short pieces of wire.(I recently scored a Magellan GPS in the dumpster at work-someone pitched it WITH THE CAR CHARGER because of the same problem)It took me longer to figure out how to get the case open than it did to fix it!

My PSP wont charge. I used several different chargers. I just bought it brand new and it wont charge at all. A light does not come on at all I also have a Nintendo DSI XL that wont charge either. I...

It sounds like the electrical input isn't working. Try plugging the chargers into other wall jacks. It could be that your PSP is defective, which in that case you should exchange it at the store you bought it at. Since you bought it brand new, it should still be under warranty.

When i plug in the charger no lights come on.i have tried with two chargers and its the same

It sounds like your battery is dead, or the port that the charger plugs into has died. I'd take it to GameStop or RadioShack and see if they can tell you which is the problem.

Nintendo DS will NOT charge

My guess is that the problem resides in the charger. You can buy a dual use charger for the DS and DS Lite at GameStop for relatively cheap.

Ok i just bought a new psp slim battery and a new charger and my psp wont charge and i dont know what to do but, i do have a psp slim 2001 (ice silver) and i bought a psp charger and battery thats 2000 so...

this is easy i solved it! buy a charger from gamestop that you have to take the battery out and then put it in the charger and charge it that way! that way if your fuse inside your psp is out it will charge the battey without putting it in the psp so all you do with the item is: take your battery out, put it in the alternative charger from gamestop (does not come with psp slim 2001 or 2000) plug the charger in the while charge the battery then bam!! there you go problem solved have a fun time playing your psp!
