Hardware PSP E1000 (Street) Power connector broken

[Localhorst86]

Hello,

I recently picked up a PSP E1000 model (street) for a measily 20€. The device itself works fine, however, charging it is not easy. It takes some very fine tuning of the plug to get the device to charge, I assume the power connector itself is somewhat faulty.

I was looking to find a replacement online (it should probably be only a few cents), but I was not able to find the part anywhere. I was, however, able to find plenty charging plugs for the 3000 and 2000 models: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/AC-c...SP2000-PSP3000-psp-2000-3000/32820819038.html

Now, to me this *looks* identical to the one from the e1000, I am, however not sure if the cable lenght fits.

Does someone know if the plugs are identical between the 2000/3000/e1000 models?

The socket looks the same, although the internal cable of the Street looks longer, but you could just swap then with the ones you have!

Yeah, the length of the wire seems to be considerably different, but the picture of the ebay listing is shorter than the wire I currently ripped out of the e1000

Might as well try getting a 3000 connector and lengthening the wires if needed.

Just a quick follow up. The power connector arrived today, the yellow connector part is identical, the wires are a lot shorter, though. I had to desolder the wires from the old connector and desolder them to the new one, but that worked fine. The connection is now stable again.
