(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); well i did some backup dumps on my ps3 it was all good.used 4.65 patcher and patched my dump..all is ok!
so renamed the bkpps3.patched.bin to bkpps3.bin and turn all switches on faceplate down then hit reset and then start....it went through all blue leds flashing so i turned off my ps3(unplug from wall) and removed flasher and put the ps3 back together and when i plug in the ps3 the lights dont even show?it doesnt turn on! anyone know why this would happen??it worked 5 mins before and then wont work now?!

can it be a brick?
can it be bad ribbon cable to power/eject buttons?

im stuck guys please help


UPDATE: 3/9/2015 k well done some research and found out that i had a ylod brick.basically its giving the show thats its ylod but isnt.so now im reading that i have to solder a wire to SBE to Tristate(GROUND)?to keep the power on?and then flash the valid backup to the revision etc

was reading on ps3 dev wiki E3

Just start the flashing process over. I had this happen quiet often when downgrading PS3's to sell on ebay and best thing I've found to do is just start the downgrade process over. also be sure to not get messy with the thermal past. carefully wipe any access off

you will only need to solder if you damaged any of the chords connecting to the mother board/ power, eject buttons on slim. just mother board for fats. if not wires were damaged then no
