There is a chance the fuse by the VCC pins might be blown, but can't say for certain. Did the original port work prior to attempting this mod? For me personally I have botched this mod a couple of times, but I have got it working more often than not anymore. On logic boards I bought with bad charging ports I never got this working, and in hind sight the only thing I can think of now was that the fuse was blown.dragng8 wrote:So i decided to add a micro usb port to the top of my vita like this guy did https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FqKJDMhnAs.
So far, the ports arent working. Not even the original port. Vita turns on, and all the controls work, but no charging. Im not too sure about how the hardware works but im pretty versed in installing modchips, so i dived right in. Does anyone know what could be causing neither of the ports to not charge? I used the alternate points (though i feel i shouldve used the pins) but i dont understand how NONE of my charging ports are working now. If someone could explain, id really appreciate it. Thanks
For reference, circled in yellow below is the fuse I'm referring to. I don't have access to these boards anymore to test this myself, (or rather I do but I have long since used them for scrap and they will no longer function), but this would be worth looking into.
I'll also throw in that on the mods I've attempted in the past using 30 AWG wire, none were successful. All the ones I've attempted using 36 AWG wire were successful. But that is me, I've seen many successful ones using 30 AWG, but I personally like using 36 were possible as it's smaller and easier to use in my opinion.
