thank you so much I replaced my thermal paste but had 2 screws left carefully watching your video I figured out where they went you got a sub thanks man!
I have made a mental note of it and will consider it in the future. It is shown in this video when I remove it. All you have to do it lift up the disc drive deck and remove the cable underneath. The button itself slides up, there is no screw holding it in @ 8:10
Also, if the disc isn't spinning you need to remove the disc break or rig it up to be open. I like that precision drill. Can it be bought at your site?
@@VenerableMoon09 hard to explain without actually showing you. They should be a video on here about it.i thing I use a broken plastic fork prong to keep it open.
Cool vid .. Watching cause I have The Same Console Supper Slim .. problem was it won’t turn on .. as in doesn’t even show the red light when I plug in the cables .. as in your mention 99% is from the power supply I’m Gonna Try And Do it my self From watching this and ordering power supply .. Any Recommends On The Ps3 I should do?
@@fasttechvideo really I was jus asking is what you think I should do with the console as in do you think it can be fixed ? I have the same console planning on fixing my self with no experience.. when ever I plug in all the cables the light does not turn on what you think.?
My power light would come on, and when I turned it on it would turn green. Then like 3 to 5 seconds it would turn off. I replaced the power supply. And plugged it in. An its still doing it. Why what am I missing. Ps slim sliding door on top. ?????
The sliding door has nothing to do with it. This could be what’s known as the yellow light of death issue the only real way to tell what the problem is is to use is syscon. There are several tutorials on RUclips that show you how to do this. We will be releasing a video in the future explaining this in detail.
It could be a Yellow Light of Death (YLOD) issue which requires a reflow on the GPU/CPU or a reball. The best fix is to replace the GPU and CPU which is not an easy job. The second and lesser likely scenario is a bad power supply. If you have to unplug the power for the PS3 to even light up again its most likely a power supply issue.
the disk tray has a button on it right? so why do you not have that part? i need one for my ps3 ultra slim because that button on that disk tray is what controls disk read and spin activation when you close the lid to the disk tray. that part is just as important as lens is. pls can you help me get the part i am describing because i really badly want to play on my ps3 again. ps this ps3 of mine is still running after non stop gaming for 5 years with no down time.
My super slims front usb ports don't work properly and I can't find any info or replacements anywhere. They will sometimes work like normal but usually refuse to detect when anything is plugged into them.
I thoroughly cleaned my PS3 super slim and when I placed it back together the disc wont spin at all or sometimes it will click and barley spin. It was working fine just before I cleaned it, and all the ribbons are in place what can be the cause of this?
Is it possible that the motor in the disk drive is dead for me? Im probably gonna have to replace the disk drive but im still curious as to if its my laser causing the issues
Hello. I don’t know if you’re still answering questions on this video, but I need help with my disc reader. I replaced my disc reader, (bought a ps3 that didn’t read discs from a friend to fix it). Now it spins and reads, but it doesn’t. When attempting the read and spin, it makes a very loud grinding noise and leaves a nasty dull scratch on the disc and leaves removable marks on the disc tray. I think the laser is too high. I can’t find a way to adjust it. I also notice the disc wobbles while spinning, if there was a way to adjust the spindle platter? Anything helps, thank you.
What type of PS3 is it? If its a old fat model or the first gen PS3 Slim (2000 series) you need to install your old disc drive's logic board in the new disc drive. Hope that helps. Let me know how it goes.
My PS3 slim disk doesn't spin,and I tried removing the brakes but it still doesn't work,I managed to put the brakes back on but is there any other reason to why the disk wouldn't spin
my ps3 super slim is no longer showing any power light (no red, yellow or green). i replaced the power supply and still nothing. what should i do now? i don't want to lose all my files on my HDD. Someone suggested replacing the motherboard, but that means losing everything. I barely used my ps3 and it died so fast...
If you replace your board you will have to format your hdd to make it work with the new board. As for troubleshooting I would check the power rails on the mainboard if you have already replaced the power supply and it does not work.
It could be YLOD issue or power supply issue. Best way to diagnose is if you have to unplug the PS3 for it to even beep again then its a power supply issue otherwise YLOD caused by GPU or CPU
I followed this to replace my power supply, but I can't get the ribbons back into the disc drive. Any ideas on how to get them back in? I thought I did, but now my disc drive no longer spins or works when it was 100% fine before. :(
Bad laser in the disc drive or worst case could be the disc drive logic board. Try replacing the laser lens first, if that doesn't work then try replacing the complete disc drive.

Thanks for subscribing 😊
Do you have a link to the main mother board for this model
@@stevowevo3776 whats is the exact model of your ps3?
Hi sir, could you do a tutorial video on how to replace the power button of ps3 super slim? Thanks!
I have made a mental note of it and will consider it in the future. It is shown in this video when I remove it. All you have to do it lift up the disc drive deck and remove the cable underneath. The button itself slides up, there is no screw holding it in @ 8:10
Hey man is it ok to replace a ps3 superslim hdmi ic chip with a ps3 slim chip ?
Also, if the disc isn't spinning you need to remove the disc break or rig it up to be open. I like that precision drill. Can it be bought at your site?
Yes you can buy it on our site here: www.fasttech.ca/tools/fasttech-pro-auto-kit

Mine turn off all the time give me some info
My super slims front usb ports don't work properly and I can't find any info or replacements anywhere. They will sometimes work like normal but usually refuse to detect when anything is plugged into them.
Its most like a controller chip issue on the board. Please first check the USB port for shorts or bridges.
Hello, I have a question. Is there any type of USB repair that does not read controls or USB memories?
Yes sometimes the usb controller needs replacement

Clean the laser

I have never seen the motor fail. Not a single case so far in our company's 15 years of working on these consoles.

The laser lens needs to be replaced. We sell these on our site including the deck in the description box.

@@fasttechvideo sir, if my ps3 super slim just on red light and after 3/4 seconds my ps shut down,,so the problem is power supply ?

Make sure the ribbon cables are in all the way to the blue line. Also clean the laser and check the ribbon cables to make sure they are not damaged
That’s not all the when turn my PS3 on the fan doesn’t spin
Did you try cleaning or replacing the fan?
there’s a safety tab preventing me from lifting the psu out:( pain
Please upload a picture so I can try to help you.
