I have a Sony Playstation 3, It seems to start powering up then all of the sudden the GREEN light turns YELLOW, and it won’t do anything after that, won’t accept discs or anything. My younger brother opened the unit, and broke the seal on it, now Sony will not touch it, does anyone know where I can get this thing fixed? I live in Kentucky, between Louisville and Bowling Green, I’ll even mail it off somewhere, if they can fix it. Thank You, in advance.
EVEN IF THE WARRENTY SEAL HAS BEEN BROKE? AND SOMEONE’S BEEN INSIDE THE INIT??? DO U KNOW THAT SONY WILL REPAIR IT FOR A FACT? Because they told me over the phone that THEY WON’T TOUCH IT, if the seal has has been broke.

Its been over 2 weeks now and my family is in complete chaos because our PS3 system had crashed ~ giving off that constant annoying blinking red light that follows after a Yellow light i’ve never seen before!

During this time, my brothers and I have tried to get in contact with Sony to get some help with fixing our PS3 problem, but we have yet to receive any notice in the mail or reply from them, with instructions on what to do.

At this rate, it would be better to do either two things, 1. Save up enough money to buy and brand new PS3 or 2. Find a reliable PS3 Repair Guide online, in which my brother whose a technician can fix it for us.

I would opt for the second option because if it can mess up once, it can mess up again and again! I want this problem solved without having to spend an arm and a leg to do so.

If anyone have any suggestions on where I can go, or what I can look at in order to get detailed instructions about fixing my PS3 start-up error. Please leave a reply ~ It would be easier to purchase a guide that only cost and I get the parts and tools off ebay, than to wait 2-4weeks for Sony to send help, and I still have to pay 0 + tax in order for them to repair my system.

Thanks Everyone <333
