  • I've had my ps3 for about 3 or 4 years now, playing lotr witn which i got for xmas then today my ps3 turned off along with my tv :S so i just thought it was a power cut. So i thought stuff it ill go back on later. So i did now i have the flashing light. Can i still send it to sony?

  • **** This has happened to me before and the only thing i found to fix it was this ps3geeks guide. Ive actually used it more than a few times for random errors i get and it worked to fix the ylod / red screen of death****** hope it helps ya too!

    -----> PS3GEEKS (DOT) COM

  • at what stage in this video do you guys help? lame as fuck.

  • what the hell i thought this was gona help me fix it!!!! useless video

  • My cod4 disk stuck :(

  • @TheSpydaa turn off the ps3 from the mains hold the disck button while you turn it on from the mains there should be a loud fan like noise you wait and the disck come right out also when the fan noise stops turn it on and off from the mains then it might work (it doesnt work on all ps3 though

  • Kitchen

  • dude I just fixed my ps3 a day after I got the ylod xD now it run better, but I can be because of all the dust witch have been building up after the years so i recomened to remove all dust by opening the ps3

  • You nerds SUCK !!!

  • this video was a complete waste of time

  • Wow...just wow!

  • Your voice pisses me the fuck off!

  • wow

    

  • my L.A noire is fucked!

  • @Nicolai94ify IF YOUR DISK IS STUCK. JUST RUN THE FAN TEST AND KEEP TAPPING ON THE EJECT BUTTON... DONE!

  • HOLD ON... Did he/she say that this is Lauren. I thought I was listening to a dude.

  • OMG WHEN I TRIED TO FORCE EJECT THE DISC MY PS3 ALMOST LIT ON FIRE

  • You can force eject the disk by turning it off in the back and holding down the eject button when you turn it back on using the back switch.

  • u can  just force the cd out. look it up i dont wanna explain it.

  • this didnt solve anything you guys suck. waste of time.

  • stupid video no help

  • what useless video tell me something we didnt no

  • It happens because you hit it. ;) lol I am joking. My ps3 just ate my mw2 disk -.-

  • Don't pitch away your Xbox just yet. Everyone could really repair it by using the Guide My dad utilized to fix his.

    XBOX360FIXGUIDE.TK

    It was the only strategy that worked well for him.

  • damn yours started happenin right away ive had mine three years and its just starting to do this

  • Very helpful thank you 

  • for some reasen it only happens wen ur playing cod

  • @LockiesRide it happen when i always play mw2 now but when play black ops everything is normal

  • you can sometimes get a disc out by holding the eject button down and pressing the on switch in the back

  • Useless video.

  • you just saved me 300 dollars i was about to drive out to game stop and buy a new one.... drunk too.. so you saved me a dui as well lol

  • was playing lbp2 and it randomly turned off, beeped and that flashing red light started happening. I just tried turning it back on and its working again lol thank god

  • @ciano41 exact same but fucking black ops did it! That bastard!

  • @sims3ps3NG haha yeah did yours work afterwards tho?

  • @ciano41 yup :)

  • @sims3ps3NG yeah, dunno if you remember me but just to warn you my PS3 is fully fucked now, hope it hasn't happened to you yet man

  • Nicks a fag

  • GAY MUCH!

  • Dude it's definatly yellow light of death belive me that is different colour to both ur green and red so what else can it be I know u got YLOD

  • once your warranty is up you can fix it yourself i aint paying 150 for sony to fix. i bought a $50 ps3 off craigslist took it apart following a guide and fixed it been working for a yr now i saved around 250 minus tax LOL!

  • if you hold eject while your ps3 is off then switch it on while still holding it, the fan will turn on and it gives you 30 secs of green light, which allows you to get the game out

  • This has just happened to me but i have seen a video of taking out the hard drive and it is really basic and easy to do, so im gonna try that.

  • @russell73 did it work ?

  • @james09uk I got YLOD after the blinking light. I got it before I tried the hard drive thing so unsure if it works. It seems my ps3 was on its way out anyway so maybe it wouldnt have help mine. I got a new slimline now but im stuck with a broken piece of shit aswel, I blame black ops never had any issues until that started making my ps3 freeze.

  • Of course you take it apart thats how you fix it you look up a tutorial video so you can open it up correct

    Btw youve got ylod it blinked yellow once then went to red light its same thing you have to pay $150 to get your ps3 fixed they dont replace for free but this vid is from 2008 so its to late

  • you got that piece of shit from a pawn shop buy a slim and it doesnt have to do with overheating it has to do with the cpu and the gpu losing connection with the hardrive because the hardrive is filled with gunk, so remove the hd and clean it if that doesnt work, take it apart take out the motherboard and put more thermal paste on the heat spots then take a heat gun and go over the board for about 15min then let it stand 4 about 15min then put it all back together and bam your shits fixed

  • @xKumarHD does this work ?

  • these idiots are American..!!! Just like everything outta da USA idiots...

  • lol this vid takes the piss, this isnt even remotley helpfull.

    the console fails because of the ROHS complient solder, the GPU/CPU heats thermally flexing the solder joints, eventually 1 of the 100's of joints fail causing the above error.

    To fix take it appart and reflow the board.

  • It means you need a new hard drive.

  • @xXxXNucLeaRXxXx like a new HDD?

  • happened to me wen i was watching clerks 2 dvd, totally sux

  • happened to me playing black ops ...

  • @NiggerDat same here

  • @NiggerDat same here bro!

  • Where is the help, bitch?

  • WTF is the point of this stupid ass video.

    -___-

  • u guys do know once u fix a ps3 that had YLOD, it's going to be a temporary fix not permanent, I only fix my ps3 so i can deactivate and get all my saved data quickly, that's what u guys should do too, instead of playing right away after fixed

  • this happended to me while i was playing black ops

  • @TheBaseballplayer36 ME TOO!! now i cant play black ops thats why i looked this vid up.. but at least i got my game out.. right now im going to let it cool and vacuum the fans

  • You can get the game out while holding eject while turning the power button on IN THE BACK.... but yeah. No help in this video.

  • most of the stuff said on this video is not right at all.

  • you can get the songs and stuff out. You take the hard drive out

  • u play too much thats why

  • holy shit motherfucker cunt this shit started happening bc i thought mw2 sucked balls so i traded it in for mw and i got mw2 and this shit happeded to me i pissed off and im thrwing it off my fucking ballcony in my room pce out titties

  • SONY: Why did you wait so long to send it in?

    ME: $150 bucks....

  • its red light of doom it just happened to me right now where can i get it fixed

  • consoles these days suck. always stop working

  • Unfotunately if your out of warranty your screwed. It will cost $250 for Sony to repair it, and you'll probably get a different refurbished unit. There are a few cheap do-it-yourself fixes you can try, but they have inconsistent results and usually the fix is temporary. You're better off buying a new console if your out of warranty and this happens to you.

  • Nearly everything you said in this video is wrong, first of all this is the Yellow light of death it has been given many silly names over the past few years,

    Next it does not mean that the console is overheating it is a non specific fault indicator light that lets you know there has been a component failure in the console, as with all electronic products failures can occur,

    Sony never released cooling fans they have always bee available, and sony will return any disc inside your console.

  • that is the ylod look closely at the yellow light flash, then the blinking red light

  • so dose this mean i have to buy a new mw2 game or when i send it in will they give it backk : /

  • There is a lot of unnecessary jabbering in this video.

  • yo basically mine starts up i can be on it then it will start slowing down den crash, then turn itself off then do the red blinking light... do u no the problem

  • @KA0SS1 identical to my problem! check out my video of it. sometimes it will last hours sometimes minutes sometimes even seconds. so annoying!

  • @samuelleonard Is it still working sometimes? I had it for the first time yesterday on CoD BO and had it 3 times now I played for 2/3 hours ant then I was getting it! Now it won't stop xD I installed my old cooler back on but it is sooo giving me soooo much noice!

  • what about a ps3 out of warenty your fountain of information is staggering wow

  • My ps3 keeps freezing, do you no how to fix that?

  • Never mind I found out what happened 2 pieces broke apart and it overheated

  • Do you know what might of happened

  • I've a question as soon as I walked intro my room the red light just started blinking I was playing a game and I had it on pause

  • yoh mine is like 3 years old and it just did it to me, wtf

  • that hapened to mine a little while ago i put on fan on it for a while then turned it off now it is working fine

  • ur dad is a money saver/ genius

  • god dammit i had modern warfaer 2 in myne and it is not working too

  • @ghostreacon25 me too

  • uh sony didn't give me a new system and they are telling me i have to pay. This is a big scam by sony to get additional money

  • @ockt28th1995 thx dude i got my disc back =)

  • What if your warranty has run out

  • gay annoying accents. and you both have lithps. xD and you both sound like girls.

  • IMPORTANT NOTICE: my ps3 was not working, a red light appeared to flash everytime i tried to turn console on. i removed the hardrive to reveal vast ammounts of DUST, blow the dust away, my console now works :)

  • I got my cd out but my ps3 still dosent work... :(

  • This just happened to me, and i got a game in there thats worth $120. I tried turning it back on, but i only get about 2 seconds of green light, and 1 second of blue light. So how do i get my game back out? And how do i fix my ps4?

  • nice man

  • me to mmssar6116

  • stupid slut of a ps3 >:(

  • You guys are useless

  • LOL 82,802 have had this problem. Sony should solve it for free. It's been 3 years and mines broke twice. What happened to the 5 year guarantee that Sony came out with? They said that my system should last 10 years but nope.

  • thanks for info dude

    

  • WATCH ME IN A THONG ON MY CHANNEL GUYS

  • this is yellow light of death

  • @PavoKneze2 no it is the red blinking light, it looks yellow because of the camera

  • @FlammingGuitarDudes RED-to-green-to-YELLOW-to flashing red….this is the yellow light of death

  • @FlammingGuitarDudes its the yellow light. I just got it yesterday.

  • @PavoKneze2 you can do the fan test and the game will come out!!!

  • yo that shit happen to me to playing modern warfar

  • @mmssar6116 a lot of people had that happen, the game must put huge pressures on the hardware

  • @FlammingGuitarDudes it not from MW2, it because SONY use cheap cremic on the ps3 CPU, the only way u can fix is re flow the CPU and put some new cremic, and u Recommend ARTICE SILVER 5, this cremic last the ps3 for a lifetime. and u should no pay 150 for a refurbish one cuz those last like about 5 month, ur better of buy the new ps3 slim

  • @FlammingGuitarDudes  This Has Happend 2 Me Yesterday Get OOn mw2 playin online conection goes freezes flashin red light need help any one know website tips anything to do reply

  • @FlammingGuitarDudes no, just to many people play that game all day

  • @FlammingGuitarDudes No, a lot of people play it for too long and it overheats. MW2 is a popular game.

  • @mmssar6116 SAME HERE!!!!!!

  • @mmssar6116 Same:/

  • Hmm this happened to me a few days ago while Heavy Rain'ing... I took it to this guy who told me he could make a quick fix but it wouldn't last long and it'd eventually die again... or he could make a good repair with a special soldering he mentioned, and it would last a lot more, because they don't allow good solderings anymore, so even if I bought a new PS3 it'd die sooner or later too

  • So ur saying if I send it to Sony I loose all if my memory.... Are you fucking kidding me, I've got 3 years of memory of 20 games nearly completed!!!

  • this was a faggot video, i dont wanna know how to fuckin prevent it or that im screwed because i cant get my disk out. 'hope this helps you figure out whats wrong'

  • hmm ever since the new MW2 dlc there has been an increase in ps3 flashing red light problems. I got the new dlc the other day and now it shuts itself off about 1 minute into an online game. Never done it before although i did notice that i had a shit connection with a 120ms ping.(usualy i get into games that are 50-70 ms ping. Got the disc out and it was quite warm. Tried it three times and still shuts off after about 5 mins.

  • my ps3 sits on a table n it has the flashin red light quite often but it still works, basically sometimes i turn it on and the fans go crazy as in they go really loud and faster, i just turn it off and the flashing light comes, i turn it on and it just works agen :S

  • my ps3 did this and my game was in it how do i at least get the game out even whe the light is red it still wont spit the game out

  • this happened to me i keep mine in a tv stand with sliding doors it got real hot but i got my handy manny tool set cut a hole in the back of the tv stand put a exhaust fan with a switch cools in seconds.

  • mine got fired

  • what can i do besides sending it in?

    please anyone send me a response

  • ha i fixed mine with a hot air gun and it f n works and dont stand it up or you buy more games lol learn to fix it cost me ten dollars to do

  • @emo2giirl did you follow the gilksy1 YLOD repair guide with the heat gun because this does seem to be different to the YLOD? If you did that and it worked then i'll have a go. Let me know please!

  • lmfao...your tunes, your data and your gay character hahahahahaha

  • poeple there is a way to stop the ylod if you have the fatty version......when it shuts off automatically DONT TURN IT BACK ON cause that will break it

  • mine is diffrent i turn it from the power supply then it turns it self on the fan nosie goes off then after it done red lights start blinking and yesterday i fix it and i dont remeber how i did it

  • ooooooo..tough luck mate..yellow light of death

    as u see before it flashes red it goes yellow

  • great advice call sony..... sick

  • .....so you guys aren't going to take it apart? What are you going to do let it sit on the shelf. You need to re-flow the motherboard and put arctic silver 5 thermal paste on the GPU and CPU. It's really not that difficult.

  • I've heard nightmares about people exchanging out consoles like getting the wrong model back. Take it to some kid that works at a local private computer store, not Best Buy. They will probably tell you exactly how to do it and might open it for you. Sony should be the last resort

  • isnt that for the ylod?

  • Damn you modern warfare ... happened to me last night, i ffelt like crying

  • I think modern warefare and sony are working together to fucking make us buy another ps3,

    it also happened to me. damn fucking sony

  • @Delta62f That just happened to me with mw2 too!

  • @Delta62f the same happen to me.. It really sucks

  • My ps3 is fucked to i started playing cod 6 and it just randomly just switched off. i thought fuck so i switched it back on got comfortable again and the piece of shite switched off again but this time when i tryed to switch it on i got YLOD and now its fucked ... what to doo.....>>>/??

  • THE SAME HAPPENED TO ME THE FUCK??

  • COD MW2 did this to my PS3 today D:

  • Its not call of duty , it's the fact that all of you guys were playing it at that time , it happened to me when i was playing assasin's creed 2.

  • dude, it's the fact that sony works secretly to make us buy another ps3 fackin piece of shites

  • cod6 is messing them up

  • has any1 that hasnt played Call of Duty had this problem?

  • yep... me :(

  • force eject dosent work on 60 models btw, u need to take it to a local repair shop. they reheat the gpu and cpu and add thermal compound to keep them cool, so they dont overheat, repair 40-60 £ GBP

  • Fuck You Sony!

  • i've a wonderful fact for you. the public should certainly acquire this game for absolutely free at "ps3bigskydownload" - just open up google and type in "ps3bigskydownload". check out the first link and you will end up there. expect that you enjoy it.

  • seems like mw2 is causing somewhat of a problem for the ps3 consoles, I had the same problem hrs ago, and wherever I go the key word i've seen is COD...wtf?

  • Yh mine crapped out today, and MW2 was in there, thats all I've been playing for about a week now aswell

  • Same here i got a warranty but will i get my game nd my ps3. bak
