THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL! Do not attempt what you see. I'm not endorsing all the products or methods I use in the video. I am simply recounting my experience and being critical with the benefit of hindsight.
Back in 2019 I started my journey into repairing PS3s. I had little experience working on consoles this complex. So I didn't know what was in store for me. I did what most self respecting hobbyist does, watch RU-vid videos, read online tutorials, and jump head first feeling confident I wouldn't break my neck. What I didn't expect was that most of the available information was misleading. As with most consoles nowadays, SONY wasn't exactly jumping at the opportunity to help out. So the repair community was in the dark.
And times were dark indeed.
This video series follows my repair log for each console. In this video I'm mainly recounting my experience with PS3 #1, since at the time I wasn't recording video. I took relatively few photographs too. So the imagery is pieced together from other videos, pictures or staged to get the point across. It's a reenactment, mostly. Try not to get hung up on discontinuities.
Also, I'm telling the story with the benefit of hindsight. I make silly mistakes in diagnosing the console, choosing repairs, and I tried to detail my thought process. My hope is that being candid about my mistakes will help others avoid making similar ones.

No shit if you use the same amount of capacitance than the tokin it will fail, i fixed these with more capacitance and it lasts, i bet if he measured the caps for continuity a second time it would have shorted, i always put the maximum amount of capacitors i can and a ceramic cap in the side and every ps3 i fix stay fixed because i correct the low capacitance fail that was a problem to begin with.

For the longest time I struggled to use solder wick. One thing I finally figured out that made it easier: If you just put your iron on top of the braid, with the braid in between the iron and the joint, you're not going to heat anything very efficiently (the braid's coarse surface makes poor thermal contact), and the flux on the braid will burn leaving black soot on your iron, forming an even worse thermal barrier. What you want to do is *always make sure your iron is touching solder.* The solder wetting between your iron tip and whatever you're heating will make it much more efficient. With the long pads you're working with here, you can do what is imo ideal which is have your iron tip half on the pad and half on the wick, touching both of them. That always gives the best results in my experience. You can also put the iron on part of the wick that's already soaked with solder, rather than a dry part. In this situation I would *definitely* preheat though, as another commenter pointed out. I'd also probably run the iron over the pad for a bit before bringing the wick to it.
@kyle52905
@kyle52905 8 месяцев назад
This is amazing advice because for an embarrassingly long amount of time I was horrible with solder wick until I realized that going in between the pad and the wick allows it to soak up more solder. It also probably helps to not use cheap wick.
@rfmerrill

@@kyle52905 I think the difference between cheap and expensive wick is mostly the flux it's coated with. The wick itself is just copper right? Kinda hard to mess up (but maybe someone knows better than me haha).

I'm glad you're continuing with this series. I find electonic repair very interesting since it's my passion. I have a fat PS3, but I don't think I'm going to fix it, because it's a non-backward compatible system and is basically worthless compared to a slim model. I will definitely have to fix a true backward compatible A model some day.

I would easliy trade all my collection of Bones nad CSI::* series for another RIP Felix episode. A document showing step by step how prodigy is being born.

Very nicely done! Not only did you show what lead you to a certain point, you're also actually willing to admit you screwed up bigtime. Yeah it took a while, but wisdom comes at the expense of experience, it also requires actually acknowledging what went wrong as well as where you went wrong. There are a lot of people who experience something and decide not to learn from it then attempt it again without changing any variables whilst expecting a different outcome (this is the definition of insanity). It's sad that the machine died, but at least you proved once and for all (through experimentation and observation) the re-capping technique was a waste of time.

Great video! I was one of the unfortunate ones who fell for this "fix" (I even posted on that PSX place thread). I didn't own a device that could read the SYSCON until I bought an E01 and simply reflowed the RSX as a temporary fix. It surprisingly STILL works today with all the thermals redone and the delids successful, though I am sure that 90nm RSX will die someday. Might consider practicing RSX swaps on broken non-BC units that have bad RSX chips since I do want to get into BGA work, and then swap in a 40nm RSX. Hopefully someday I can find a working A model and do the same. You're doing god's work by explaining this debacle with these videos. :)

Using the same amount of capacitance than the tokin is a guaranteed fail, the tantalums near the heat source will increase capacitance faster than the others and if you don't increase the overall capacitance most of the current will flow to them increasing exponentially the current going to them. Ideally you shouldn't depend on it heating to achieve it's capacitance, and a ceramic cap to absorb the hf will help to decrease the heating.

I fixed my YLOD on a CECHA01 from FB Marketplace by de lid "ing the heat sinks and just re-thermal pasteing both sides of the spreaders , I used a bean can easy open lid and a lighter to remove the thermal glue LMFAO and watched a NSC Modz 's guide(s) on how to put the thing back together w/ good pressure to get better cooling. I then modded the case w/ holes and removed the PSU housing and bent the PSU mounting brackets up a bit (same guys cooling tip) to get some air flow between the PSU and the CPU on the board. Now my CECHA01 runs very quite and cool ! No YLOD and no other issues. Hearing your story of all this work and having to take apart your ps3 so many times and try to get it working made me remember all the work I had to put into mine a few years back. When I put it back together the 3rd time I ended up damaging the little ribbon for the power button chip and thought my work w/ the CPU / GPU bricked my unit ... and had to wait over a week shipping time to find it was in fact the common ribbon for the power button. DIY ps3 repair hype!

Well, don't let me slow you down. I reccomend getting a cheap COK-00X MB (donor) and practicing until you have it down. Will take a good 5 or 6 attempts. And you will get lulled into a false sense of confidence and want to try it before you're ready. So try to resist the urge until you have sucessfully removed, reballed, and reflowed the RSX at least 3 times. CPU too, if you are at it. You'll learn a lot from that practice. Mainly it's to get used to your equipment and get a feel for the way the board reacts. And do yourself a favor, bake the boards at 100c for a minimum of 4 hours (preferably 24hrs) to remove moisture! That actually is a big deal. Luckily, you don't have to wait. I documented all my repair logs on the PSX place. So if you just can't wait for a video, you can always read about my journey! www.psx-place.com/threads/research-experimental-nec-tokin-capacitors-replacement-ylod.25260/page-204#post-301356 At the bottom there is a spoiler with links to all my PS3 repair logs.

The reason why your PS3 worked again several times, was because the heat you put for the tantalums, actually traveled to the RSX nearby and temporarily restored your RSX to a working condition that would soon fail again. Would be fun to see a frankenstein mod with tantalums replaced too.

Using the same amount of capacitance than the tokin is a guaranteed fail, the tantalums near the heat source will increase capacitance faster than the others and if you don't increase the overall capacitance most of the current will flow to them increasing exponentially the current going to them. Ideally you shouldn't depend on it heating to achieve it's capacitance, and a ceramic cap to absorb the hf will help to decrease the heating.

Wow it's crazy how much we think alike, I'd not have spent my money in the same way but I'm right now thinking about getting a pre-heater and I do not need one. All because of this very informative video.

I started reballing back in 2008 mainly HP dv series laptops, it took me about 100 attempts to finally get one working but boy it felt great to see the hp logo boot up. I did it for 5 years on, the repair lasted 6 to 24 months.

Your YLOD video was the inspiration for me to finally get a BC PS3 after intending to for years I got a C model for a good price, and have now discovered it doesn't read DVD/PS2 discs Looks like the first chapter of my repair journey has begun

That should just be the DVD laser, which went bad on my CECH-A. Its around 20 bucks for a new one but you just got to be careful to not forget any parts when transplanting.

@@aegonthedragon7303 exactly what it was, only thing that went wrong was I stripped a screw in the disk drive so I won't be disassembling that again any time soon lol

Amazing video, thanks for sharing your experience - and your mistakes, it's not common to see that. I love and hate your videos. Love because they are very informative. Hate because they basically tell me I've wasted time on those capacitors LOL! I've been testing with BGA for a while and went through the same "ghetto" equipment. I had a similar hot air station you have and really it was pointless to use with a large nozzle. First because of the very low airflow. But I also analysed the heat distribution with my thermal camera and - as we both experienced - you end up with such uneven temps under a large nozzle that the whole process was pointless. I went through the same "impatience" stage as well, with lots of ripped corners! You probably know this already, be cautious with your pre-heater, it comes not earthed from the manufacturer. Look forward to your next video.

Yeah, been enjoying your vids on the T8280. I loved how you went to town installing a larger fan. TBH seemed like a lateral move, but it was fun to watch regardless. I agree about the loud fan being obnoxious, but I know exactly what you mean about it serving as an indicator of the temps by it's change in pitch...lol! I kinda want to keep it that way for that reason. Yeah, the earthing issue is a problem.

thank you these videos! looking forward to more! I have an 80gb launch model and managed to get it to green LOD. =/ I've been very scared to touch it since. didn't replace the tokens but I did try the reflow method. idk if I'll ever try reballing my self but I'm still holding onto the console in hopes of finding someone qualified in my area to get it working again.

I empathise with this experience so much lol. It's such a defeating feeling when you aren't able to fix something or AT LEAST 100% confirm the issue so you can put it to rest. I always feel like I can't relax until there is a conclusion and it causes a lot of needless stress.
