thanks Metal220. ill try again later tonight.. probably going to end up taking it apart over spring break as well as selling an xbox 360 to finance my new ps3! :P
@erkell19 ok let it sit for a while turn it on then hit eject u dont have to hold buttons down. i had mw3 in it that night i got t out. anyways im sure sony wont fix it for life. best bet buy a new ps3 get ur old 1 fixed long enough to transfer data. theres the taking apart way and there is the blowdryer and fan way. but it will either last 2 months or 2 days. long enough to transfer data probably
@haze9444 sometimes u have to let it sit 4 a while as soon as u turn it on and get a blue light hit eject then it will come out. see after u let it sit it comes on for longer than it does has been for like 4 seconds or so. now it will come on and stay on long enough for u to get ur game out. i had mw3 stuck in mine too got it out last night. as for fixing it. u can try a blow dryer and fan solution or take it apart and do the soddering thing. shld work long enough to transfer data onto a new ps3
@Behemothfamiliar Amen brother,I hear that. That Skyrim cocksucker killed mine today too.Mine was an 80gb backward compatible model,and it didn't owe me anything. Sad sad day for us both.
@TalonX1982 That sucks so bad >.< now idk whether to get my ps3 fixed or just buy a new one, and if i get a new one can i still transfer the data from the old hdd to the new one. Also should i ever play skyrim again if its gonna break ps3s from now on? idk D:
@Behemothfamiliar It's not so much Skyrim directly,as it is any game that over-taxes the system. What happens is games that cause lag and freezing makes the system heat up more while processing the lagging data and the solder flakes off the heat sync plate on the back of the chip which causes it to over heat and,YLOD. Fallout NV,Skyrim,Dead Island..all laggy games which freeze up the system and cause damage. Skyrim gets less shitty with each update. If yours is BWC,get it fixed and get a new one
Thanks a lot bro I got my call of duty black ops out !!!! My ps3 just got the yellow light of death sucks but hey I still got my xbox360 slim to fall back on Sony said to fix my ps3 it will cost me $107.00 won't see it back for 2 weeks and will have a 90 day warrenty ... Once agin thanks bud this video helped me out a lot!!!!
if you call sony ask for costomer suport you can seriously not joking convince them to give you a 100% free no warenty needed fix your ps3 no shiping and handleing fees 100% free
This did not work for me. I have an 80gb PS3. It is an older model though. I have the one that came with Metal Gear Solid 4. Back when they used to put chrome on the ps3 and have 4 USB ports instead of 2. Everyone that I see using this trick has one of the newer 80GB models with 2 USB Ports.
Thanks dude, i also suffered from YLOD and FIFA 12 stuck inside. I tried the fan test as you explained and it did not work first time. I tried again and it worked a treat, at least i have my game back. Now i just need to see how i can get it repaired. Warranty has gone too! :(
SONY should send all people affected by YLOD replacements since the console breaks through no fault of our own, it is obviously an inherent problem within the console itself, therefore it is their fault!
@Loosrb0y47 same here buddy. Im about to take the whole thing apart and get my game out and then buy a new ps3. Mine right now is so fucked up it won't do anything. Let me know what you do!
my ps3 has had the ylod for 11 days and ive had MY FRIENDS copy of mw3 stuck in my system and i decided i was gonna try to find on youtube a way to get it out and this worked perfectly!!!!!
i did this and the ps3 did turn green but the disk didnt come out.... and i know im not doing it wrong because i followed your steps about 3 times ! is there any other way?
@cyberspongebob Skyrim has just killed my PS3 aswell. Close to 3 years and now it's died, but I'm looking at Skyrim for the multiple times it's crashed my console due to lag, loading, or even for no apparent reason. It was also during playing that the YLoD struck. Figures... Thank god for this video, I can get my Collectors Edition Skyrim disc back. Double whammy indeed.
100 bucks + tax for a new 160gb they told me a few days ago.
or
130 to refurbish your console/ send you a similar one. i'm not sure what to do as i actually use my ps2 backwards compatibility some, and the sony lady told me its an obsolete format and i should move on.. i was kinda mad
