need some were luton or in the uk
i have a 40gb ps3 had it four just over a year i need it fixed becouse when i turn the ps3 unit on it boots up on home screen logsing and then the fans go rapid and a message come up on right top corner saying your ps3 temp has risen to high and will auto shutdown
the ps3 has been taken apart and was modded took of modded parts now back to normal but no warranty

If your PS3 is starting to act up, having issues with red or yellow lights blinking, overheating or freezing during the middle of a game, it is time to troubleshoot the unit and repair the issue. You have basically two options for this: either send it to Sony for repairs or fix it yourself.

There are many advantages to fixing your PS3 yourself. To start, it is quicker. Sending your PS3 to Sony can take weeks for the repairs and return of the console. It can also be cheaper, especially if the warranty has expired. Sony will charge at least $100 to repair your PS3 if it is no longer under warranty, plus additional costs for any hardware needed (such as a replacement hard drive).

However, there are some times when sending the unit into repairs may be the best choice. If your PS3 is still under warranty and the repairs are major, this is probably the best choice. Also, you need to be careful with some home repairs that may void your warranty. Those the require you opening the unit up can invalidate your PS3 warranty and you may be best off sending the PS3 in for repairs if this is a concern.

However, many of the common issues that PS3 owners have with their PS3 can be easily fixed at home, if you have the know how. Often the issues only need simple fixes that take less than an hour to fix. In these cases, it may be easiest to fix the unit yourself, so that you can get back to your game play quickly. Learning how to fix common issues troubling your PS3 by yourself, you can save both time and money.



Sony Ps3 Yellow Red Lights Fix repair Guide

I need to break my ps3 and make it look like a accident please help.

More info Below

Ok so, I got the YLOD and sent my ps3 in to be repaired thru a waranty by toys r us, i got it back
and its broke again, i dont want to do this every time, i have only had it back 2 weeks, i heard that places that do repair work dont use sony approved replacment parts, IDK if thats true or what but, i just dont trust they will repair it to full working order, and that it will just break again. however my warranty does cover "Accidental Damage from Handling" and when i bought the warranty the manager sold it as "no questions asked" saying if something happend no matter what they will fix it.
so basically im looking for ways to break it beyond repair so i can get my money back and buy a new PS3.

I was considering the pooring soda inside of it while unpluged and saying i spilt it, or something like that think that will work? please help

Alright, I believe that the Blu Ray drive in my PS3 is dead. I have a PS3 and it’s been like this for the past 4 months or longer and I haven’t bothered to fix it, so I’ve been using my cousins’ since then and now, this one broke too.

My cousins is over a year old so the warranty option is not a possibility, however, mine isn’t a year old and I believe I still have the warranty sticker on (the white bar code tning on the back?) but I don’t have any papers other than that? What do I do?

Can someone give me the exact number to call regarding sending my PS3 in for repair? I live in Toronto, Canada.

Hi everyone, I’m having a small problem with Sony over a 60GB Playstation 3 Console. Back in december I paid £128 to have my 2 year console replaced by Sony because it developed a hardware fault and it was out of warranty. Over the past four months I have had a wide range of problems with my last three replacement consoles that Sony have sent me.

My first two replacements only lasted for no more then a few days each with the first one having a disc read error and the second overheating. My third replacement lasted me for three months and was working very well until I had a problem with the two of the four USB ports on the front.

I contacted Sony in hope that the problem would be resolved over the phone, I told them I didn’t want to have my console sent off or replaced because I didnt want to lose my data again. They told me that there is nothing they could do apart from to replace it.

I have just received my fourth replacement console yesterday from Sony but this time without a warranty sticker on the bottom. The console itself looks very new as if it has just come off the production line without a single scratch. I have contacted them within 10 minutes of having it delivered to inform them but they are very unhappy with the amount of luck I have had with them. They are telling me they dont understand why it wouldnt be shipped with a warranty sticker as they are all checked before they leave their warehouse. I have explained to them that there isnt even a single residue of the sticker ever being on the console in the place where the warranty sticker is supposed to be. They have now told me that because I have had four replacements its very strange and that they are going to escalate it with their head office and they would may need the console to be sent to them to be checked and evaluated. This is very important as Sony’s policy is that they are not allowed to repair a console under warranty if it has a pealed warranty sticker.

At this point I’m not too sure on what steps to take in order to have everything resolved. I asked them couldnt they simply replace the console again and they have refused to until the head office knows what it is they will do. I wil appreciatete any advice given.

Thank you so much

I’m about to trade my xbox 360 (with red rings) for a PS3 with video problems how much do you think this will cost to fix and/or is it covered under factory warranty like the red rings is?

not under warranty anymore

I’m here today to give you an insider/analytical review of the PS3 Yellow Red Light Repair Guide.
I have purchased it before and I really wasn’t expecting anything great, because I believed that eBooks would be worth less. Boy was I wrong! It was really a shock to me, as it featured:

• Videos
• Guides
• One-on-one help
• 24/7 Support

I seriously had considered sending off to Sony, but after a quick phone call with one of their representatives, he explained to me that there would be a 4-6 week waiting period and that I would have to pay $150, as it was out of warranty period. But with PS3 Lights Fix

• It took me and hour and a half to repair
• It was safe and easy
• It cost me well below $150, actually I saved myself just over $120!

Below is a more detailed review of what was inside the package:

Videos- There were 4 videos, each one differently explaining the way to fix the Yellow or Red light

Guides- The guide was VERY STRAIGHTFORWARD, I must say.
There were many pictures and it wasn’t a fancy technical talk

24/7 Help- They really fulfil up to their guarantee. I emailed them and got a reply within 12 hours on a Sunday!

So, I highly recommend this guide to repair the Yellow/Red Lights on your PS3, from personal experience. Click Here to Visit Official Site Now!
