Question
I have a psp 2001 slim and the headset jack does not work.  I found a replacement part for it, but is there any soldering involved?  On the pix of the replacement part, it looks like a cable is attached to it.  Is this correct?  I just don't want to have to solder anything.

Answer

PSP 2000/Slim PCB repl
Gday Monica,

Providing it the PCB (Circuit board) with the Headphone jack attached and not just the headphone jack you should be okay.  The PSP is very modular and the earphone PCB for the Slim is just a simple couple of screws and a clip/wire to replace.  No Soldering providing you replace the entire PCB assembly.

I have attached a photo just in case.

hope this Helps
