(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey Ngu Community, I Have Posted This Thread Because I Would Like To Save My Ps3 From The Yellow Light Of Death.(YLOD). My Ps3 Has Been Making Weird Engine Sounds And My Blue And Green Light Have Been Blinking At Randomly. And The Worst Part Is, The YLOD Has Shown On My Ps3 But Disappears Like 5 Minutes Later. Then It Goes Into YLOD Again But 10 Minutes Later It Goes Back To Normal. My Ps3 Has Also Been Getting Very Hot The First 5 Minutes. I Am Still Able To Play Games But I Sign Out And Turn Off My Ps3 Just In Case. I Need Your Opinions Of What I Should Do Because I Lost The Warranty Papers The First Day And I Don't Want To Open Up My Ps3 To Fix The YLOD Because It Would Be A B**ch Putting It Back Together. This Decision Is Making Me Uncomfortable. I Need Your Opinions Of What To Do Next. Thanks

what i do is when its a hot day i have a big fan on blowing cold air on my ps3 to help keep it cool

and i have original 60gb ps3 never had a problem with it and never overheated so seems to do the job

I got YLOD couple days ago. I'm probably just gonna buy a new one but I don't know what to do with my old one though. Should I just sell it now or should I have Sony fix it/send me refurbished one and then sell it? Also are there any PS3 models immune to the yellow light of death?
