thought it was just xbox that had nifty tactics to get you to pay for repairs.

Hi,
Anyone need help with the PS3 fault, yellow light of death? my son has successfully repaired his own and those of a few mates, he would like to offer a repair service for £30- if the repair doesn't work there is no charge- we can collect and deliver in the Sheffield area, PM me if interested.

Nah, it's anything that uses lead free solder, and high temperatures.

Hi, I have a pretty high success rate of fixing ps3s with the yellow light problem, but I could try and fix it even if it's slightly different. I've been charging £30 but obviously wouldn't charge if it didnt work. Thanks, Joe
