PS3 red light.

[NorthBay 415]

My PS3 got the red blinking light fuccckkkkkk

I read up on the problem and they call it ylod or some shit

My options
Hit up sony - no warranty, so imma pay a price
Do it myself
Or
Find someone to do it for me.

What do you sicc goons recommend. Has it happened to anyone yet?

Look on Craigslist for a place that does repairs, try to get a business as opposed to someone doing shit in their bedroom, my fat 60gb caught the YLOD they fixed for a minute but it died again

if you don't want to be fixing the same problem constantly, you'll have to get a new system

I tried sand, and then more sand. No help at all

Fuck! Thanks for the help bruh goons! Ill see what i decide on. Leaning towards mtts idea.

if your warranty is up then DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT fuck with Sony all they gonna do is tax you close to 200 dollars and send you back some referbish shit.. You can get this repaired for less then 100 dollars at a local electronic shop that licenses video game systems. The place around me is called Affordable Computer Repair.

YLOD WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, IF IT WAS THE FAT PS3 IT HAPPENS OVER TIME, JUST GET A PS3 SLIM ITS CHEAPER THEN JUST FIXING IT OVER AND OVER
