type YLOD,GILSKY1 in google.his guide is quite comprehensive to fix YLOD

Vertical position=air flow no good,heat easily trapped
Horizontal position=good air flow,better heat release

p/s:i also can managed to repair from YLOD too...maybe i can help out others forumner here with little 'fee'...

haa...suda tukar kaa?

Anyone here can help me out on this one problemo?

My PS3 controller still can't syncing with the console unless it attach to USBcable. Once i remove it, all the red lights blinking for sometimes and it went kaput. already try resetting the controller and failed.

Now the only way i can play games is non-wireless sixaxis or DS3...suck big time.

My PS3 already 4 time struck by YLOD..

one thing i can conclude is it need better thermal paste.last time i bought some ciken brand thermal paste...last for few days before it YLOD again (again apply the same story repeated for 3 times).then i mix it with some brand thermal paste and it last much longer but at first 15 minute the fan will kick to hyper mode in every session i start playing.

Now i'm ordering reputable brand (artic cooling) thermal paste...hope this will resolve the problem permanently....since i still has long list of games in my possession that i hasn't finish yet!!!

guess so since it transmit the heat from the processor unit to heatsink...thermal paste also got expiry date in a way.

guys from pc modding always replace their pc thermal paste due to overclocking processor causing more heat.this is totally from my reading so don't mind this if it's totally untrue

if PS3 is identical fully 100% to one another then i can agree to that... well in my case it seem can't last longer so had to do what ever cheapest cost to revive it back (as vorchiel said)...

blow another RM1400 is not my option,don't has that kind of luxury. well...i'm no expert either in PS3 or electronics...so don't quote me...kekeke

u can find heat gun at jalan pasar but the cheapest i think above RM180...and it's non adjustable heat.huhuhu

what u need is tork screwdriver size T10...u can find it at hardware store.it categorized as precision screwdriver...

philip screw driver look like '+' but tork screw driver look like david star or something like this '*'
