QUOTE(Pain_X @ Dec 8 2010, 12:18 AM) Guys,need some help,i think my ps3 YLOD. Well since there is no more warranty, you can probably try to fix it yourself using the heat gun if you don't want it to send to shop for repair.I was playing my ps3 earlier and suddenly it turned off by itself and the red light started blinking. I tried pressing the stand-by button but it'll just turn green for 1 second,yellow then start blinking red. Is this the dreaded YLOD...? What can i do? Its not under warranty anymore. Its the phat 40gb version. Please help   Here is an example video: It is a risky thing to do but it almost always succeeded in fixing the YLOD |

A customer drop by asking to fix his PS3. He claims to not able to eject the disc, but the symptom showed YLOD.
I might try to attempt to fix this issue via heat gun. Here is the snap shot of the unit:  |

QUOTE(dark_heart07 @ Dec 9 2010, 11:16 PM) last time when my 40GB got YLOD while playing,my disc also stuck inside.but i manage to eject it by switch on the back button while pressing the eject button. I tried that already, didn't work. The console is definitely dead. If the customer approves me to fix it, it will be my second attempt to fix it via head gun technique.  |

This cloud saving thingy, does it mean all my profile/accounts/purchase will also be saved on the server and when my PS3 K-O, I can purchase a new PS3 and restore the old profile on the new PS3?
