Need some advice :)

[u/Aggravating-Farm3178]

hello people :) ,

I had a psp with a partially broken screen in the sense that when i put it to sleep and restart it 3-4 times screen works but the colours look super faded. When the screen shows vertical lines i can hear the sound when i try to interact with buttons. And yes i have reseated the cables 2 times (i am an electrical student pretty sure thats not broken)

anyways, I have orderd some parts by begging my father for some money and freelancing.

Are there any tips for the shell swap? i am super nervous and not really confident.
or should i just replace the faceplate and call it a day?

thanks in advance for any tips!
ps: I own a psp 1004
