PS3 YLOD AND RED BLINKING LIGHT OF DEATH REPAIR PT 6.AVI

[MrIcanfixanything]

You are a complete dope, "Fixing" Ylod my hole. Go buy a proper rework station with proper temperature controllers and thermocouples. You have no idea why this is actually working intermittently, You need to get PB free solder (Which is whats under that RSX) to 226 - 228 c to acheive a proper reflow. You've no idea what temps your hitting. Your just ruining every board you go at with that $5 Paint stripper. FOOL¬!

[jkale228]

What happens if u bubble a chip? any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

[SarahkateIreland]

thanks heaps mate, my ps3 is working again

[korndogg2004]

@93cimbom you have to use a heatgun. It's the only thing that will get hot enough. You shud swap the power supply out too for an APS-231 model. There are some on ebay. You need good thermal paste as well. Mine is running great since I fixed mine.

[93CIMBOM]

Hey man I want to repair my ps3 too but eeuhm is it necessary to use a heat gun or can I use something else for it?Thanks for the video

[supermancable]

iv been tryin this method for a while and the ylod seems not to go away do u have any solutions?

[dwanivey]

I need help. I have a PS3 Slim that had a problem with not reading any game discs. I simply removed the top cover, DVD drive, and PSU. I took apart the DVD and cleaned the laser with alcohol and q-tip. I then clean out all the dust out of the PS3 and put back together. Now when I press the power button, the LED goes Green and stays Green for 5 seconds then goes to a flashing Red and three beeps (No Yellow light Green and Red) then dies. I have taken it completely apart four times now. Help!!!

[scoeas1982]

@dwanivey hi there you have a short bro what youn need to do is call me 512 563 6438 and ill explain how to get past it so we can identify the problem call me anytime man im glad to help

[dwanivey]

@scoeas1982 Hey man I've been trying to reach you but I get no answer just voice mail. Could you please help me. You state I may have a short on my board. How do I get around it or repair the short. Please let me know......Thanks

[almostahero6]

@scoeas1982 after putting in a new blu ray, mine read the disc then instantly turned off, now i have a the red light, no yellow, wth, lol

[chuppychup06]

dont it sopil when you remove?



[SwagMonster17]

Do we have to use the flux?

[abraxxxas66]

i used a heat gun on the 30 second period an i have a bubble on one of the ships you think I f ....up?????

[hornettec]

your steps were very helpful. Unfortunately, i couldn;t follow them to down to a "t". For starters i did not have a heat gun so i used a hairdryer.....then when i put just the pwr suppy for pre op check like you instructed, i got the GREEN LT..Yay!!!...BUT When i put the whole unit back together, the RED LT of death came back. Could the component after the pwr supply be bad? Or the hair dryer was not good enough?

[scoeas1982]

@hornettec ok thats easy that mean you plugged something in wrong take everything back off except the power supply and see if it fires back up if it does that means you had a cable askew. Hairdryers are not reccomended thoguh

[touchmybuttox]

If I don't have an infrared thermometer gun, what would you recommend the cool down time be between each pass?

[beegeefan1989]

[leadedpanda]

LOL he's 550 degrees, *he thinks to himself* DAM THAT'S HOT! and drinks the mountain dew lol

[moolah954]

do i need flux???



[DustinHusted]

what is you dont have a heat gun would i be able to use a blowdryer?

[founder3]

@DustinHusted No, you need a heat gun to warm the joints to a melting point. The heat gun can hit between 400 - 750 degrees F. A blowdryer may hit 100 F if its comercial grade.
