what you guys problems for hating on this? its a god damn kid guys, he's trying to help, im gonna go try it out cause i dont feel like busting the shit open yet. thanks xXxja196xXx for the post i'll let ya know if this works for me.
DO NOT DO THIS!!!!!! PUTTING TOO MUCH HEAT WILL MELT YOUR PLASTIC and possible fry !!.Also, the Thermal Compound is a key factor in this fix, trust me!!! Do it the proper way,all you need is a screwdriver, heat gun,Thermal Compound and about 2 hours.. Gilsky has a very simple and best how to video. search for his and dont listen to these idiots!!
@jayshock00 You're an idiot you know that, we all know it can melt you're ps3 a little but the thermal compund just gets remelted back into place and the disconnected sauders re-sauder back t th original, calm the fuck down, and the whole reason for this is for ppl who dont wanna open ther ps3
@xXxja196xXx Your an absolute noob. Its solder not sauder fucking hell retard.
Yes the hairdryer may work but it is not good practice or a solution its a quick fix for getting disks out or recovering data. DO NOT RECCOMEND THIS TO ANYONE WANTING TO FIX YLOD PERMANTLY.
And the thermal compound will not get remelted back into place. For a start thermal compound isn't a solid at room temperature therefore it will not "melt" at all.
Coming from someone who has fixed YLOD properly mutlple times
@MarkG11400 Okay i dont give a flying fuck i never said that it fixes forever but i got lucky because mine lasted 9 months with this fix it depends and will vary so dont let your vagina flow to hard, go put a jam pad in your thong and suck me.
@MarkG11400 Dude... really? You're correcting one person's spelling of a commonly mis-spelled word, which in this case is solder.... and yet you're the one that spelled the word permanently wrong.. So you can fix a PS3, but you yourself can't even spell. Oh and one more little thing... It's spelled RECOMMEND.
i was gonna fry his ass but you've done it for me..
in addition to what pizzaface said, ja196 stated in the beginning that it was a temporary fix and that the results may vary..no fucking need to use profanity and scorn someone who's simply trying to help
@dragonfire970 gas oven. I put the temperature to limit around 400 to 450F to get thing work property. Use it your own risk and limted time around 5 to 10 min (depending on how much you hear the bubble)
@ModernMarine its already borken, i tryed it and and it last 4 a week and then it broke again 3 days later, later then it broke again which is right now.. but now i got a fan be4 i was usng the ceiling fan
Few months back had my blu-ray laser go bad, found the solution on youtube, fixed it myself.
Get this problem, and again, fixed it myself! Saved me $300 total for the repairs to be done by sony...with that, I'll trade this one into gamestop while it still works and get a slim (I needs more space anyways)
thank for everything but 1 thing who sell me the ps3 was in the shop not my friend he says that my ps3 is dead :'( lol but mobo have problem please mail me h-r-454@hotmail.com and fast
this works but i got it again later less than 10 minutes later just cuz i only let it cool off for 14 minutes so if i do it again with the right time it shuld work like a charm
Bro you just saved me an ass load of money thanks so much anyone who is hatin on dude get off this nigga helped me fix my shit so hopefully he can help you as well good lookin homi!
HEY jA NICE VIDEO I wANt U TO TeLL mIi if this really works becuase u was playing black ops nd den iht froze nd shut down by it self so den I turn iht in buht iht just geht da yellow light so pleassee pleasseee reply if this really works
Fixed again :), I'm going to leave it for the rest of the day though, as last night I was just on the ps3 home screen and was making sure everything was still there when it turned off.
Thanks budd. After my second try, I did wht the guy below did (hairdryer for 20, then cool for 45), only I let it cool for around an hour and a half while I played on my dads ps3 aha, thanks a bunch.
I tried this cause I knew what you were getting at... Re-flowing the motherboard connections without taking it apart and knowing to have it upside down because of where the necessary parts are located.
I did this using the ps3 box, hairdryer on high for 20 minutes to be sure. Fan next for 45 minutes to cool all the way.
Worked like a charm first try and has lasted for 5 days already with no problems.
@patrickiii200 Hmm idk ive never had that before, my hair dryer goes from High temp to low but has a 1-2 speed i have mine on 2 and on high so do not make it to fast or tohot
@gazrocks72 he's not a genius lol, he just know how to watch other youtube videos of fixing the ps3 with a hair dryer, and making a video himself. it's not like he came up with the concept.... anyways, nice video kid.
@clippersown Actually this may be on otehr videos but i ONLY saw ppl using a Heat gun, so i tryed wih a hair dryer and it worked for abit but then i put it in a box to trap heat inside becouse the volume of the box is taken up by the ps3 so the heat fills the rest therefore heating it up, <--- thats exactly what i thought when i first did it
@xXxja196xXx it works better if you wrap it with clothes or towels. and you said that you have done it 4 times already, if you keep doing this then your ps3 will eventually become unfixable because you'll have literally melted some essential parts on the mobo, or maybe even fried the CPU/GPU. I opened my ps3 up, located the CPU/GPU dyes, then put the hairdryer on it for about 5 minutes. this is a better fix because without opening it, you can possibly harm things that are already working.
@ntuitavu Well i was looking at that towel technique for the xbpox and though becouse i cant turn on the ps3, why dont i just put in heat for myself so i put it upside down in the box becouse the GPU and CPU are located on the frontside up so the sauders will recconect properly upside down so i figured a hair dryer, and the right amount of time autta do it, so when i tryed it was litterly like OMG this FU**** worked :D, and decided to post on youtube to help other , lik you ;)
ive just done this for 15 mins in a small box and i think ive melted my back vents :O , got to wait for it to cool down now , im not using a fan . hope this works bitch
@arsam1344 lol, this shows how retarded u are, come beat me up fucking bitch u dont no where i am, ur a fucking gay mug, u bitch if u reply back ur simply gay.
