Sony PS3 Original Repair: Repair info for Yellow Light of Death

This is a very common fault and if your PlayStation 3 is suffering from any of these symptoms, books this repair. The fault has been attributed to the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) or the CPU (Central Processing Unit) overheating, which causes the solder balls underneath them to crack. In some cases it is necessary to remove the chips and apply new ones, at no extra cost.  This fault is often described as the 'yellow light of death' or 'traffic lights' all are the same fault. Our quality control department ensure the console has been put through a vigorous testing procedure before posting. We will return any discs that were left inside the console before the fault occurred.

 


Book your console under this fault if you experience any or all of these symptoms:
  • The LED on the front of the PlayStation 3 goes green, flashes yellow, then blinks red.
  • The console makes a succession of bleeping noises.
  • You cannot get the console to power on.
  • You may have found that the PlayStation 3 simply bleeped and switched itself of during game play.
