There's 8 light's on the E3 flasher. The '1' in the code stands for the light flashing, the '0' stands for it not flashing. So he'll have to count across which ones are/aren't on to find out what's wrong with it.

If he just said 'the' blue light is flashing, it leads me to believe it's just 1 light, which would be an SD card error. Get him to reinsert the SD card & also ensure the pin is correctly inserted into the PS3 (with pressure).

Okay thanks a lot man I'll ask him to do it and I'll lyk what lights are flashing because he bought a c clamp to put pressure but an error kept coming up so maybe something was not in the right place
