PS3 YLOD broken capacitor or bad power supply?
Hello everyone,
I need urgent help. So my fat PS3 is YLOD and I am trying to find the culprit. When I turn it on I get no video. The USB ports also don't work. After 1-2mins it gets the YLOD. i have already cleaned the PS3. Put in new thermal paste on both sides on the GPU and CPU and put in new thermal pads. While de-lidding the GPU I accidentally broke one of the tiny capacitor between the CPU and GPU. See the image. I also replaced the power supply with the aps 226 model. I still get the ylod. Please note that the longer I let the PS3 be off the longer it lasts before it ylod. Also like I said before the USB ports are not working either.
So what is the issue? Is it the broken tiny capacitor or a bad power supply?
