He was real aggressive about taking off the two shiny top plates that are supposed to pry off. Both of mine won't go back on after service as I broke the clips. They stay on well enough, and the system works just fine, but do be careful about these. They aren't supposed to 'snap' off, you are supposed to slide them while prying. The plastic is extremely thin on the inside of the panels.
i keep hearing this clicking sound thinking it was maybe the disk reader but I believe its the fan instead. I can hear the sound mostly when I'm in the home screen or while its loading games. any insight anyone?
Omg i didn't have the correct screwdriver for the weird pin screws and I've been looking forever on how to do it without the correct screwdriver thank u so much ❤👍
I did every step you showed in order to clean out my ps3 that I've had for a couple years now and everything is working properly, internet, friends list, etc.. except for when I put a disc in and the ps3 does not read it. It's happened to one specific game before, but now it's not reading any of the PlayStation games I have. My PlayStation doesn't even attempt to spin the disc. All I hear is two clicks? Anything I could possibly do?
Took out all the screws and everything but when I try removing the top off, its like stuck from the left side ??? I don't want to do something stupid and break it
my ps3superslim isn't spinning the discs.. I don't know if it's wear and tear damage from playing for consecutive hours.. but It recently stopped spinning discs
+alwaysafix A small bent pin thats all silver fell off inside my ps3 while i was shaking it because my sim card fell in the holes just beside the disc drive. is that part of my ps3?
Help there mate , love the videos spot on . . But please I have question - I've got my self in a tricky situation - I've removed correctly the damaged or worn laser from my PS3 but cannot find a product code stuck to the actual laser module it's self I've looked closely and all there is is a code on the back of the deck and a code on the front - I need to know for sure if the code make's much differences in requirement for the correct type of laser despite the advertisement's I've viewed saying it's For a PS3 super slim and it looking the same design and shape of laser module do I really take that chance ? - for what I'm seeing is adverts that are definitely for a new PS3 Laser but None so far of the accompanying details of the codes in the description of the laser on said adverts actualy match my two codes on my deck and Im battling to find a new laser that has the same code as that I have in the deck I have here which is all a have to go on because there is nothing stuck to the actual laser module or interface that gives me a code to use in my search online .... Please help any helpful advice would be Greatly Appreciated .
hey @alwaysafix so my connector which is the piece that looks like a black tape strip gotten disconnected from the ps3 so I guess it won't read the CD. my ps3 knows what the game is but won't play because of that black tape connector piece. is there a way I can connect it without taking apart? if I have to I will
I ended up repairing that ribbon cable. I just snipped off a couple of milimitres of the damaged cable, and used some fine grit sand paper to remove the plastic coating of the ribbon cable to expose the contact.
Hi, I have a peticular problem with my super slim ps3. Everything on it works except the physical power button located on the console itself. It does not recognize any button presses or holds, the only way I am able to turn my ps3 on is by using the controller and I'm afraid if that controller breaks, or somehow refuses to sync up or be recognized I will have no way of turning on my console. I've looked at dozens of forums and videos with no luck. Is this an easy fix, or a simple replacement? Any help at all would be appreciated.
you know how the ps3 super slim the disk slide thing opens with the button my button stopped working how could i fix that i searched that and no videos came up and i see you reply to comments on your video and i was hoping you could help me
Krazee Kreations It sounds like you need to get someone with some technical experience to help you out. You could end up with more damage than you started with. Power supplys are dangerous please do not attempt this job if you have no experience. Thanks for watching!
So I connect my ps3 to the tv but get no signal to the tv. It turns on and everything but says so signal. I treys another hdmi cable and still did the same. Any suggestions
We were moving house and for some reason when I got my ps3 back from our container where we held our things for storage the front panel (where you see the power button light at the very front don’t know what you call it), that she tge panel above broke off and I don’t know how to turn it in without the actual switch, everything works fine though I just can’t turn it on and I tried the controller but it is dead and I don’t have another way to charge it
i need help with my ps3 because everytime i turn it on it the power light goes green for about 4seconds before completely turning as if i pulled the plug on it? could you help
Help my ps3 super slim sometimes spins the disc but it makes a weird noice and it stops sometimes and when it spins it wont read the disc idk what to do
Hi! I have a super slim PS3 that turns on and then 3 minutes later it freezes and turns off. First time it happend when a game was saving. I tought it was that I file got damaged. I turned on but it continued to turns off. I restored the system and formated the hard disk, the PS3 worked fine for about one month. Then It started again. Any idea? Thanks in advance.
Hey, Boss. I was wondering if you could make a reassembly of this model? Like, from the ground up. I was watching this video on how to disassemble the console, only I took it even further. I've already put it back together once, but I had all sorts of screws that weren't installed because I didn't find where they went aha. I know I probably should've taken step-by-step photos on how to piece it back together myself, but I wasn't even thinking about it then. My PS3 Super Slim's not wanting to stay on. I'll turn it on, and not even a second later, it'll turn right back off. I though about fixing it myself, which I'm still in the process of attempting. However, I can't seem to figure out what could possibly be wrong with the console. Any suggestions for you or anyone reading this would definitely suffice. Because I can't seem to find any solutions and or any diagnosis on what's going on with my console.
Unfortunately this console has since gone back to the customer, but look around and you will find another video on reassembling your model. Good luck and thanks for watching.
My PlayStation used to work fine when I got it 2 and a half years ago, but recently I've been only playing only been playing Dark Souls for almost a year and a half, then I tried to play some games I used to play and it never reads them, but it still reads Dark Souls and a few other games no problem, the discs are fine, great condition almost new, but it still refuses to read them, and my Dark Souls is pretty scratched up but it still reads, so what the heck could the problem be? I've been dumbstruck by this. Any input please?
Disassemble it and use rubbing alcohol to clear the pop you spilled on it, that one day you were rough housing around it. Can you say pour some sugar on me.
My PS3 dropped and now it can't load regular Blu ray disc, but somehow it recognizes Un harted 3. So I assume laser is not faulty. And I saw actually something blue visible underneath disc drive plastic, which it might be a ribbon cable partialy detached. I decided to dissassembly PS3, however I wanted to try to get those Torx screws from top out but for some reason I can't unscrew it even with flathead :/
My super slim ps3 had a problem when I went to my other house and I brought it with me and when I went there it would start and u would select your profile things and it would just freeze so I did whatever I could then i came back to my other house and brought it with me and when I hooked it up back at my other house it wouldn't start do u know why help me please
hey man, my ps3 when i turn it on it says "cannot start. appropriate system sotrage was not found." i tried cleaning the hard drive it was already clean idk why this happens please help

Due to your lack of experience in electronics, to protect yourself from electric shock you need to take it to somebody who has the right equipment and knowledge. Good luck!
+alwaysafix help my ps3 super slim it is plugged up and everything then i press the power button then it turns on for about 3 seconds then it turns off and then the power button is grey and when u press it it turns the power button red then u press the power button again and it turns on for three seconds and it does the same thing over again so basically u have to press the power button three times then it turns on for three seconds and then it turns off plz help😰😓😡👿😭😫😱
+Roderick Arteaga Connect your controller with the usb cable. Turn off PS3 from power button then press and hold power button and wait for a double beep. Good luck!
If you've checked the cable from the mains to the console, it might be the PS3 power supply. This will involve working with high voltages so you need to take it to a suitable technician. Good luck!
alwaysafix I got 2 issus the first one is when I start my black ops 2 it say's sugestedd actions and blue ray disc problem and disc won't read help plz
This Console has since gone back to the customer. If you are going to replace the laser, you will have to disassemble the console to get the model number. Good luck on your repair!
I have the ps3 super slim it will power on and stay on for about 7 mins then the console just shuts down no power light nothing. can anyone tell me how to fix it?
stathis tsoukarelis Is your model the exact one in the video? If so, please do not force it. Get someone with some experience to help you out so that you don't do more damage. Good luck!
My PlayStation fell and it turned completely black. It turns on, and still works, but it's black. I held the power button until I got to safe mode, it showed it, the letters, everything. Then I clicked "Reset System" And next thing you know, it worked! Then I put GTA V. It took so long to load so I turned it off. Now it's back to black screen...Can anyone help?
I tripped and I was going to catch myself by putting my hand down and I did that right on the top of my ps3 where the fan is so now when I turn it on it makes a funny noise but it runs everything still

Thank you so much for this! Easy to follow. Straight to the point. Love it.
alwaysafix do u know that tape thingy at the back of the part where u can move the metal part??
The screwdriver bit for two screws in the Blue ray drive is called the t8 security bit
i keep hearing this clicking sound thinking it was maybe the disk reader but I believe its the fan instead. I can hear the sound mostly when I'm in the home screen or while its loading games. any insight anyone?
What if the front clips broke of will anything affect it?
Can Someone Please Help. i need help putting it back together and i cant find a video for it
What tool are you using to take the screws out of the disc tray
A hammer!!!!!!!
Omg i didn't have the correct screwdriver for the weird pin screws and I've been looking forever on how to do it without the correct screwdriver thank u so much ❤👍

Veronica Parangan Which ribbon came out? The one that connects to the laser?

Anything I could possibly do?
Excellent. Well presented and good lighting.
Much appreciated! Thanks for watching.
the little like ruben cable you talked about on my ps3 slim is like bent and it makes weird noises
+Walter Millan The ribbon cable connects the laser to the motherboard, so if its damaged the PS3 will not read disks. Is your PS3 still reading?
Hi my ribbon that's connected to the blue Ray player disconnected am I able to reconnect it if I take it apart like you did?
I enjoyed this. it was simple and straightforward
+just another bass player Much appreciated and congratulations on your fix. Thanks for watching.

These power supply's are very solid. Check the output with a multi meter. Good luck!
alwaysafix Sorry what? I don't even know how to check or take out the power supply because mine wont turn on!
Krazee Kreations It sounds like you need to get someone with some technical experience to help you out. You could end up with more damage than you started with. Power supplys are dangerous please do not attempt this job if you have no experience. Thanks for watching!
@Nate Pierce I would have to hear the noise. Please take a video and send it to my email address on my site.

Then why didnt you named this video "How To Get Into The Ps3 Super Slim Console" because when you say "ps3 disembly" sounds like your taking it apart.
That’s what he’s doing
My PlayStation fell and it turned completely black. It turns on, and still works, but it's black. I held the power button until I got to safe mode, it showed it, the letters, everything. Then I clicked "Reset System" And next thing you know, it worked! Then I put GTA V. It took so long to load so I turned it off. Now it's back to black screen...Can anyone help?
Diego Cosillos Since it fell it needs to be disassembled and all connections checked. Get someone with experience to help you out. Good luck!

I tripped and I was going to catch myself by putting my hand down and I did that right on the top of my ps3 where the fan is so now when I turn it on it makes a funny noise but it runs everything still
