Ps3 Ylod, Need Help Fixing

i recently got a ylod :(

its the Fat 60gb model

the problem is not with the psu, the fan starts up fine and then there is yellow flash and then a red blinking light

It probably occurred due to a lot of dust buildup, which i removed after the fault

i have been scouring the net for possible causes and fixes but can't get anything specific

Please help!

How can i find the exact cause of the problem?

What types of fixes are possible?

And What i really want to know if there is a permanent fix possible?

Any Suggestions?

it's not a permanent fix, nothing is. If you do the YLOD repair you also need to clean out the interior and then take steps to make sure your PS3 is in a well ventilated area, and that you regularly dust the vents etc to keep the problem from recurring...that's the best any of us can do.

Get a heatgun and reflow the GPU and CPU SLOWLY, leave the motherboard on a stable surface to cool, the board can't move because the solder is hot and if it does, you may be reballing it

If that doesn't work, it may be worthwile to try again

Here is the guide: Riparazione Yellow Light of Death

This is temporary, a reball would be better, but it is definitely more difficult, and if you use lead solder balls, this will not happen as easily(whatever braindead child at the EPA should of known better, yet they mandate lead-free solder, should of asked us first if leaded is better!)

If you clean out the gook from the heatsinks, it is temporary, but maintenance is key and will reduce the chance of doing this again

It is also a RoHS thing too... I would bet the EPA did that stupid move
