I got myself 10 broken PS3 to see if I can fix them. Six of them have YLOD/ RLOD, the rest either won't turn on or green light with no video output :
After 16 years, my ps3 finally got the YLOD.. so many good memories with that thing. May you Rest In Peace. : r/PS3
PS3 - PS3 FAT CECHC04 - COK-002 - GLOD - no video on HDMI and Component | PSX-Place
Trying to save this machine. PS3 Phat still RLoD after replacing tokin caps. It turns on, 3 fast beeps, immediately yellow, then blinking red. Fan spins. Checked solder joints, nothing loose. Please
PS3 fat won't display video or play audio, no Ylod or Rlod though. : r/playstation
