subject: Tips To Repair Your Ps3 Play Station! [print this page] You can literally make any PS3 repairs that you need to when you have the right information. There are several playstation 3 repairs on the internet, but they aren't always helpful. There is however a repair guide that was written by an expert in PS3 repairs that I found and my troubles were over. I invite you to take a look for yourself.
A lot of PS3 Playstation owners are having problems with things such as YLOD, red light flashing, 3 beeps, etc. Others are experiencing screen freezes, blu-ray disc lens problems, blinking PS3 and no PS3 display.
Your options, when having problems are to find a local repair shop, send the unit back to Sony or fix it yourself. Finding a repair shop may seem like a good idea, but there are no guarantees and there is a cost of course.
I found useful information on the internet that helped me begin to believe that I could make PS3 repairs if I found the right information. The good news is I found it and I'll share with you what I learned.
If your PS3 overheats, it can give you some unusual symptoms. Try turning it off and let it cool for 20 minutes. You might also try holding down the power button until you hear 3 beeps. This will indicate that the unit has reset itself.
Occasionally one of your games may cause your unit to freeze. If this happens, try playing another game and see if you get the same symptom. If not, you know it's the game and not your unit.
A hardware failure with the PS3 can cause a variety of problems including YLOD, 3 beeps, a flashing red light or flashing green light, etc. You could have a bad motherboard, a bad power supply or hard drive, but it may not be any of those. Before panicking, do a little research. Chances are you will be able to make the repairs yourself.
When you learn to make the PS3 repairs you need, it's a great feeling. With the right repair guide and a few basic tools, you can keep your system running error free for a long time.
