Good day sir, you have no idea how much I appreciate your videos. I like to do my own repairs but the one thing I can't find are the schematics to tell me what outputs each part should be putting out. I can remove the parts, but I don't know how to figure out which part needs to be replaced. Do you, or anyone in this thread, know where I can find "what to check for" and what the readings should be? I have about 10 GLOD boards and a couple of RLOD/YLOD boards and I'd like to repair them myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone
I have checked your video, but i dont know if it fixes my problem, my Fat ps3 40gb turns on, green light, but ''No Signal'' at all, no HDMI and no AV works. any thoughts? should i blast it with heat gun? (if so, at what temps, and for how long?) you think can be Nec tokins? can be HDMI chip? (but av doesnt work too...)
Please check for the HDD light to blink. If the light blinks for an instant or is normal then you have to re-flow the RSX. A light reflow that ball under RSX should not melt fully. And to avoid the motherboard bending, preheat the whole board first.380-degree temp.enough if you are using a heat gun and the airflow should be at 3.
@@idreestech the HDD blinks at the very beginning (for an instant) after pressing start, then dont blink anymore while the green light stays on. im using a heat gun, afer preheat the whole board, what temperature should i put on the RSX, and for how long? 250ºc for 40seconds? i just dont know... should i put some flux (no clean) underneath the RSX?
@@idreestech is AMTECH NC-559-ASM Lead-Free Solder Flux Paste a good flux to inject under RSX to reflow? im trying to choose one from aliexpress to buy
Good like always sir My friend has glod and i fixed it for him by using 4 small coin on the top of gpu ihs that gave him some months Do you think reflow can fix the problem permanently sir
I've learned something today the ethernet chip correspond to south bridge clock and also the panasonic hdmi decode ic chip for display output.. these two chips causes glod on slims i would think
@@idreestech No the fan doesn't spin at all ( spins when you perform the cleaning method than completely shuts off) It turns red on standby you turn it on the green light comes on than nothing The hard drive don't blink at all No power in USB ports Bd don't work And you can't turn it off by holding the power button Thank for your response Sir
hi i have same problem but it's a bit different it goes to glod but when turn it off and on again it works normal without any problem run games etc .. what do u think the problem where and thanks keep up good work
On first turn on if HDD light blinks,audio available but no video then check for your HDMI section.And if no audio, no video and no hdd light then go for a slight CPU reflow.
You always amaze us with your work. When I had such a defect, I used to start with reflow rsx Because I didn't know how to measure these components thank you our master
To do it without oscilloscope, you have to compare parts value with another good doner motherboard. I think smd parts are available online or in your area electronic parts shop.
@@idreestech PS3 repair videos are fine too, because there are not many repair people on RUclips who actually diagnose the problem at the motherboard's component level. But having variety is good, too.
Yes, the Green Light of Death (GLOD) on a PS3 can be caused by a GPU issue. The GLOD is often associated with hardware failures, and the GPU is one of the most common culprits, especially in older PS3 models. The PS3’s GPU can overheat, especially if the thermal paste has degraded over time. This can cause poor connections between the GPU and the motherboard. Cold/Cracked Solder Joints: The solder joints between the GPU and the motherboard can weaken over time due to heating and cooling cycles, leading to a loss of contact. This is why many people attempt a reflow or reballing of the GPU to fix this. The GPU itself might have failed or degraded, causing the system to not initialize properly, resulting in GLOD.
@@idreestech my ps3 turns on but then i can only turn it of by holdinf down the power button, and it wont go into safe mode, and there is nothing on the screen, it happened when i was trying to install the latest update software via usb because it was not working via internet, it started updating turned of and now its stuck like this please help, can i reach out to you?
@@idreestech what is the unbrick process? It was in perfect condition a few moments ago i dont know whats wrong :’( im really upset, my ps3 means a lot to me
Hi! If you're asking whether there's anyone here who sells defective PS3 and PS2 consoles, I’m not sure, but you might want to check with local repair shops or online marketplaces for parts or defective units. If you have specific repair needs or questions about these consoles, feel free to ask!
i dont have that signal cloak meter . can i get reading with multi meter ? the ethernet chip. how can i found foult on that . not sending signal to southbrigh
@@idreestech it was phat model . it was ylod. 4 resistor was 3.48 ohm above the gpu behind the thermal resistor. i change them with same model was 4.65 ohm ..and heat both cpu and gpu. and ylod fix. but no pictur. and hdd just blink once and nothing.
To safely turn off the console, hold down the power button for more than 30 seconds to avoid burning any extra components.
I watched your video from last few week and find you are make really good video diagnostic real problem which very helpfull for viewer👍
Thanks dear! Awsome.

Awesome video I just hope this isn't what's wrong with my ps3 lol
Hello sir wht if AV cable also not working? It is the same problem
No
@idreestech then wht is my ps3 problem sir? If both of them have no signal at all.

nice repairing and background music
Glad you enjoyed it
Good like always sir

Do you think reflow can fix the problem permanently sir
Usually, In ps3 it is permanent but not in ps4.
I've learned something today the ethernet chip correspond to south bridge clock and also the panasonic hdmi decode ic chip for display output.. these two chips causes glod on slims i would think
Keep watching, thanks!
@@idreestech thank you for educating us..
the best without a doubt stayed small the competition
Thanks Cheers!
In the beginning before you fix it does the fan start or not and did the blue drive worked please answer
If the fan spins after two or three minutes, it is likely an issue with the HDMI encoder chip.

@@idreestech No the fan doesn't spin at all ( spins when you perform the cleaning method than completely shuts off)
It turns red on standby you turn it on the green light comes on than nothing
The hard drive don't blink at all
No power in USB ports
Bd don't work
And you can't turn it off by holding the power button
Thank for your response Sir
@@blackhawknbd6121Mine also same problem 😢 how much will it cost to repair it ??
hi i have same problem but it's a bit different
it goes to glod but when turn it off and on again it works normal without any problem run games etc ..
what do u think the problem where
and thanks keep up good work
NEC tokin capacitors.
@@idreestech i change one of nec toking still do the same
On first turn on if HDD light blinks,audio available but no video then check for your HDMI section.And if no audio, no video and no hdd light then go for a slight CPU reflow.
i just wish you could make a tutorial about reflow on this BGA with heat gun, what flux , temperatures...
Ok

Khaled ballo listen to you after a long time.
Great work👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Can you help me to fix it
Sure, yes.
ok my ps3 suffering rlod but yesterday it worked and i played it for 1& half hour but same problem appear today
If someone needed a repair how much do you charge
3000 Pk Rupee.
Is there a way to power on the PS3 without a strip plug in
@@ethanthomas8159 Yes, connect GND to power on and off the pin.
is there any to diagnose these faults without oscilloscope ? also where can i get the values for these resistors without a donor ?
To do it without oscilloscope, you have to compare parts value with another good doner motherboard. I think smd parts are available online or in your area electronic parts shop.
I have a smd tester to compare the value of the components of a good motherboard with ohm or volt? Thank you teacher, I love you so much
@@rabiusharefbabina2844 OHM dear.
@@idreestech what do you think about the new syscon UART diagnostic ?
It is useless for me.
great video but irs better to move forward for something else .
like xbox 360 red light
thanks you
Fine sure.

Anything to know?

can i get reading with multi meter ?
the ethernet chip. how can i found foult on that . not sending signal to southbrigh
Jack Rich you can compare changes in volts reading with another good motherboard of the same model or any model.
i fix ps3 with ylod by heatgun. now it turn up grean and no video and no hdd light. what coud be foult? check some resistor? or reball ?
