I Bought a yellow light of death (YLoD) Playstation3 Fat ps3! Can I Fix it? PlayStation Repair Retro

The yellow light of death (YLoD) that indicates general breakdowns and issues on the PS3 Fat is infamous. ... This problem is generally caused by the PS3 overheating internally and melting the solder

Overheating is usually the culprit of motherboard failure, especially if has not been kept in a properly ventilated environment. The result? Cracked or melted solder joints between the motherboard and processors. Follow these steps to revive your PS3.

Heat the chips for 20-30 seconds each with a heat gun on low power, or a hair dryer for around 1 minute.

This video shows you everything you need to know about taking apart your Playstation3 Fat. If you need to replace the fan or the disk drive this video will show you how to get inside and disassemble your system. Since this system isn't the newest on the market anymore, it's cheaper to replace the parts yourself than it is to send them in for repairs.

Playstation 3 Yellow Light of Death (PS3 YLOD)
The PS3 YLOD (or yellow light of death) is when your beloved console shines or blinks a yellow light on its front end, indicating that something serious is wrong.

There are two lights that sit beside each other, but the one closest to the edge is the one we're talking about. When you see the yellow light (which may also flash red), you know something is wrong.

Your experience of the YLOD normally comes during intense gameplay when the whole console just freezes up, the game crashes, and you can do nothing to remedy the problem. Along with the console freeze, your Playstation 3 gives an audible alert that something is terribly wrong by giving a few short beeps.

You can fix the problem yourself using a phillips head screwdriver, a lint-free cloth, thermal paste, rubbing alcohol, and a heat gun capable of heating to 177ºC (350ºF). You could have the console working again in as fast as an hour. For step-by-step instructions, watch the video.

Place the ps3 motherboard on a flat heat resistive surface (kitchen worktop or melamine shelf will be fine).

Turn the heat gun on and set the temperature to 350 deg and the fan speed to low (to high and it will move the surface mount bits).
Allow gun to get up to temperature before continuing!!!!

Using a circular motion hold heat gun over areas outlined below (keep heat gun an inch above board/components at all times).

CPU side first.

After 15 to 20 seconds move on to the next area.

Once all marked areas have been heated/reflowed on the motherboard LEAVE for at least 10 to 15 minutes to cool.
(DO NOT MOVE MOTHERBOARD WHILE COOLING)
