ken_cinder Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Broken backlight on my PSOne LCD, spent months trying to find a replacement. Finally gave up and thought "I should build an LED array to act as a backlight" but I never got around to it, kinda lazy.Just happened to be on the X-S forums looking for parts, and I came across a thread for LED PCB's. Got the dimensions and realized it should work well as a backlight. So I bought one, and here you have it! Fix0red PSOne LCD backlight for a mere $15. (Black Friday sale at the time). I powered the backlight off a +5v point on the PSOne LCD logic board, and grounded off on a null point on the board. Dremeled holes in the top of the backlight housing for the LEDs to sit in and now I just have to hotglue the PCB down and put everything back together. Here's a pic! Thanks to SickDimension from Sickmods for the excellent prepped LED PCB, originally designed for Xbox mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
