Hi and welcome to my new video ! Finally my Phat PS3 also got a YLOD ( Yellow light of death ). Because of this i couldnt make anymore jailbreaking tutorials. Sorry for that :s
But i will not throw it into the trash ! I will use this console to show you how to fix the YLOD :-)
This video will be splitted in 3 parts.
Part 1 # how to open it up
Part 2 # YLOD fix
Part 3 # Reassembly
if you have a different model visit www.ifixit.com for more tutorials.

I did this today and it totally worked. I have a heat gun that doesn't have adjustable temp. I have Flux rosin, which isn't easy to get under the chips. I just followed your video and it works! Thanks man! Hopefully it lasts for some time.
does it goes
I was skeptical about this but gave it a shot. It fixed a Cecha00 with a 3034 error. Let's see how long it lasts. Thanks for the tutorial.
hey i see your comments only 2 weeks old, is it still running okay?
@@Epieic3 Ran fine for a whole week then I killed it trying to delid the CPU haha. Its all good the console was meant for practice only. But yea the reflow method works but they say it could last anywhere from a couple of hours to a couple of years.
Thanks for the great tutorial! Just fixed a ps3 that died 10 years ago so it lives to heat my room once again. i didn't use flux cuz i didn't have any and it didn't seem to matter. happy to keep it out of a landfill and put a "classic" console back in service.
No flux? So you just heated the board and it worked?
@@themischievousgentleman5521 yep that’s exactly what I did
is it still working?
@@andrewscotti1136 yes sir
@@LordJabu-Jabustill working?😅
I didn't really believe it. But it worked. Thank you I will be able to finish Fallout 3 in 2024,😂
Just a note that you reference RAM in the heating zone and actually those are the dodgy NEC caps instead. The RAM is on the RSX and the Cell processor ones are off to the right. So just a correction on that front.
3 Questions, but first off . . . thanks for the 3 great videos on the YLOD repair!
1: In the USA I'm unable to find Flussmittel GSP-2533/RX . . . heck I even search eBay internationally and found none.
What is the best fluid that would be available to me? Or what keywords / ingredients should I be looking for?
2: When I search replacement Thermal Pads, I see no differences identified other than thickness. Would the 5mm thick or the even thicker 10mm dissipate the most heat? Or is there a better option.
3: I've yet to research Thermal Paste for the two chips, but I assume Arctic Freeze is still the best, or is there a better product?
Worked perfectly on 2 of my console thanks so much
Brother thanks you I tried on my ps3 super slim with my own risk but it works 💪 thank you so so much 🙏
ps3 super slim can't get ylod, bruh
Is there still a way to get the rjtag ultimate kit because the link isn't working
is that a 4 usb model?
#CapacitoresDeTantalo bro!
It looks like it.
@@kevinragsdale6256 think so
4:34 wrong now you're ready to remove the heat spreaders, it's a necessary evil if you want to prevent future overheating.
I would also recommend just refund the GPU first because half the time it ends up being the only one needing it. Also use tin foil or tin foil tape to cover up the parts you don't want to get hot, it also helps prevent the board from trying to warp
James Carter do you mean to leave them off when reassembling?
@@JacobC1985 no you have to put the heat spreaders back but you don't have to worry about gluing them back down the pressure will keep them in place no problem.
I recommend reflowing the board with them removed, you'll have a higher chance of success.
Also use tin foil or tin foil tape around everything but the GPU, this will allow you that use higher temperatures without the issue of the board being warped.
If you don't remove them thermal compound underneath is going to cause issues when it comes to transferring the heat off the chips, even if you replace over top of it the stuff underneath is still bad.
James Carter sounds good. What do you recommend using to separate the heat spreader from you/cpu with?
no problem! Xd first Comment!
good
Nice one.
Link to that same Heat Gun please. I have one but not adjustable can I still try to reflow??
It also work with hair dryer
What heat gun temp u used ?
350c
thanks!!!!!
hotgun 30secs, and jbc flux :D
thanks!!!!!!!!
Does anyone know where I can get similar flux to the one in the video
Do you have to take the motherboard out from the metal.
yeah
what is flox ? can we use something else other than flox
i was thinking the samething, what is flux
No
@@iexistnowhere5004 brother flux is used for soldering but for this you need to use non corrosive electrical flux
@@iexistnowhere5004 non corrosive means you Not have to clean after you use
The doctor onboard Star Trek Enterprise
What kind of flux is that ?
Solder not gonna melt in 25 seconds even with a preheater
my ps3 has glod can you help me please ????????????
+SURO RAP this should fix it reflow applies to glod to so do exactly what he did
BRWfilms thanks man but myne has glod if i reflow it is it work for long or only month ?
Some times it can last for a long time, but some times only for a short period it just depends. If you can find some one that does reballs, that will permanently fix it as long as they know what they are doing
BRWfilms THANKS
Does anybody know how to repair playstation 2s I can't find anybody that does repairs on them or is it a waste of time??
What problem you got
whats the name of the song please
Music : Ahrix - Nova
Capacitors tantalum install in substite Nec tokin is ultimate Solution!
This is not a solution this is a Band-Aid this will not fix your PS3 if anything it will make it worse. If anybody actually wants to fix their PS3 you should find a reballing service.
And that, is also, only temporary. So...yeah.
They all just have a special ticking time sensor that says you can have it only for so long😂😂😂
Na hömma
Fake! Install your board to see the result.
Yeah, even a "good reflow" is a shitty bandaid for these.
I've had one last over a year before I had to do it again... But I've also had them only last a month or 2 also. I consider it a warning that upgrading or replacing is imminent, but this will buy you some time.
