Are there any errors being thrown when booting the console?
Rule out the controller is not the problem, then
Open the ps3. When you open it, you will see a long black wire, and a long white wire coming off of two silver plates from the front of the console and going to the back, plugged onto tiny clips/plugs on the motherboard. Make sure those are plugged in and not damaged/shorting. The black wire goes to the backmost clip/plug, the white wire goes to the frontmost clip/plug(closest to you when looking at the front of the console).
These are wifi/bluetooth antenna.
