Dude, you just saved me!!! Long story short, I couldn't get my PS3 back on, she was on her way out, but I needed to get the data off the HDD. Couldn't get it out of standby cause the touch sensors were not working, I power cycled it (long story) and now the controllers didn't get her out of standby by either. I had a game in there that I need out also and that when it hit me, putting a disk in gets the system out of standby...MONEY!!!! Got the Game out and put a old DVD in to kick start it!

can you make video for how to fix a ps3
hi junker, i have a ps3 that had the problem of blue light on all the while, i tried to follow your method, had resetted both arms, but it seems the ps3 is still thought there's a disk in it, any advice?

@darude87 Check the small board in the lower right of the drive that has the switches. There may be one that's had the top broken off, so now the system can't "press" it to close the switch, and the drive doesn't know there's no disk now.

i have an odd problem, my ps3 will eject games just fine, but it will not let me insert them. When i try it does not suck them in the blue light just blinks then goes solid, after this i was thinking it might be the sliders on the "piece of shit device" but im not sure

@Darkxlink1 Maybe you've got broken switches on the small board in the lower left of the drive. Depending on which switch broke, the system may get an incorrect reading and think there's a disc in when the drive is empty.

I have the YLOD. If I were to follow your steps, but not bother resetting it to the 'No Disk' position, would I be able to simply press the eject button once I fix the YLOD?

@RealForLol No, that will probably jam up the mechanism. It's best to reset the drive so it knows there's no disc inserted.
