Have you ever had to deal with your Playstation 3 dying? When you are getting ready to play your favorite game and then you get the yellow light of horrid death it will really ruin your day. This can be very frustrating if your Playstation 3 is out of warranty and you have to pay for the repair out of your own pocket. When this happens it pretty much makes your gaming machine a big paper weight and locks up whatever game or blue ray inside your device until it gets fixed.
I had to deal with this when my son was getting ready to relax on a quiet friday night. He just got home from school and finished up all his work and just when he was getting ready to play a video game it had locked up on him. He tried to unplug it and even wait some time and see if it would start working again but nothing seemed to help.
After reading online about his problem it seems like he was having to deal with the yellow light of death! It looks like its a common problem and involves taking it in and having it taken apart to get repaired. I was upset since the Playstation 3 is a very expensive device and I feel it should not break for a very long time.
After visiting a few game shops I found out that many of them wanted over 100.00 to fix this and it was really only repairing a few melted wires due to the processor heating up. I was not going to shell out any more money for this since I had already vested over 600.00 with games and controllers.
My friend told my about a guide called PS3 Fixer that claimed to fix the device in well under an hour and the cost involved was only a few dollars. This seemed more practical and I could then keep the guide in case this ever happened to me again. I read a few reviews about the guide and it did not seem like a scam to me so I tried it out.
I jumped into the book the next day and proceeded to follow the instructions. After thirty minutes I had everything back together and I crossed my fingers before turning it back on. Thankfully I had no issues and the yellow light was gone! I am very glad that the PS3 Fixer laid out everything and saved me money from taking it in.
