Broken Wireless Switch On PSP

It was dropped and the wireless switch now is just very loose, so something has obviously snapped inside, how easy is it to open up, or is there anywhere i can take it to have a look at it?

cheers

theyre pretty easy to pop open (no springs or anything fly out lol)

not sure how much dismantling is required to get the wireless assembly out though.

make sure you have a tin of compressed air handy though, as geting it back together without dust behind the screen is a complete nightmare :mad:

If you google - how to open a psp
then you will find a guide along with a video of it being dismantled. Unfortunately cant post a direct link or mention the name of the site it appears on.
