(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); It goes off when I go on games but it doesn't for Netflix anyone know how to fix it?

Reballing it.
Since it still works I wouldn't wanna try Reflowing. What you can do for now is replace the thermal paste and if you're on cfw turn up the fan speed via webman or a fan control homebrew.

or you could try oven method it works for me all the time but its only a temp fix

Are u sure it is not something to do with the temperature of the PS3. I reckon that your ps3 can not handle games because it is getting to hot. I recommend getting it repaired. If i am wrong you need to tell us more like what happens when it goes off. please quote back to me.

It turns off and flashes yellow, only seems to happen on bo2 it's fine on gta5

When a PS3 overheats it flashes yellow, i recommend to get it repaired from the seller you got it from.

A yellow light is an indication of a hardware failure not always an overheat problem. The heat pad has probably slipped off the ram chip. If it was a problem related to heat the ps3 would switch off and blink red as the blinking red is a sure fire sign that there is a problem with the rsx and cell chip as that only blinks when there is a problem with these chips .

A yellow light can also occur when the ps3 is over 85 degrees. I have had it and my ps3 turns off.

Yes i know i was just saying that he could have a problem with something else other than overheating (i think the pad has slipped of the ram chip) as he can still use the ps3 for other things.

Yes good point, i know you are just trying to help. Thats why i recommend getting the PS3 repaired.
