Post: Please help! -Jailbreak Question!-
02-23-2014, 07:44 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay I recently purchased a e3 flasher and I'm trying to jailbreak my fat ps3. I'm having two issues.

1. The fan keeps starting up very rapidly after I turn it on
2. Sometimes I can't get signal on my tv.

Please help! I'm curious why this is!

you dont need thermal paste necessarily. but yes the problem is you are not getting good enough contact with the heat sink. make sure the heat sink is clear of debris. also make sure you screwed the 2 pressure plates back onto the metal frame, this is what maintans pressure to the heat sink. if this does not work, then yes, you will most likely need to get thermal paste, apply it to the heat sink and repeat the process i just gave you.

if you dont know what the heat sink is:

Keep in mind that you need to screw everything back on tight. When i installed the E3 flasher and i didn't screwed it all fully back in the fan went crazy...

Yep, the problem is that the PS3 overheates. I had same problem when I installed E3 first and didn't care to screw the metal plates back in...
