I had YLOD so it was impossible to start the PS3 (retrocompatible PS3 FAT). I tried what you did but with a hair dryer for a few minutes and it works perfectly now. Thank you
This metod works only for few hours or days, and after repeting this metod the ps3 GPU & RTX will be destroyed, don't do this metod, the only way to repair your ps3 is to reballing GPU & RTX or if the problem are the capatitors NEC- tokin must be replaced
@@eubladez3884 This is a ps3 first of all and what they said was correct with some minor grammatical mistakes, he meant RSX which is the GPU in the ps3
people say this because Xbox 360s (mostly Xenon models) had RROD mostly because of microsoft using unleaded solder balls instead of leaded, thus causing RROD if they cracked. because PS3s had YLOD at the time, people assumed there was unleaded solder in the PS3 as well. in actuality, it’s sorta the GPU/CPU’s fault. on the 360, the RROD was caused by mostly the solder balls, it could be a lot of other things causing it (capacitors, dead DVD drive etc). on the PS3, while the RSX may bridge solder, that’s extremely rare, most of the time it’s always the faulty NEC/TOKEN capacitors.
I know the solution here guys, your internal thermal paste is seized, you need to remove the cpu cover then replace the thermal paste inside, the CPU cover is made with aluminum, just scrape it with plastic gently, carefully, you will see inside theres a thermal paste probably solid already
This problem is due to the malfunction of the NEC tokin capacitors if they are not replaced the problem returns, this problem also happens in the fat ps3 models
I fixed mine in a different way look under where the power button is at and there is vents if its dusty then that's the problem but this video still gives good tips
@@davidvance8182 I also bought another one, but for me was a good idea to keep the PS3 because sometimes it's nice to play old games. I found out that my PS3 had broken down when I recently had guests and they wanted to play a PS3 game.
There is no correct method as long you cover the entire surface. Gamers Nexus already proof that get informed prior posting. 🤦. His method is actually quite good.
SONY PS3/ PS4 SUCK when it comes to keeping their consoles cool due to not enough ventilation holes, then even the dust inside can screw their consoles too!!!!
I have a ps3 slim upon changing the hard drive, it now shows an error code (8002F2F0) and the green light immediately goes off and even try takes time before it t come back again. What can you for me pls?
