Playstation 3 Troubleshooting Technique That Corrects PS3 Console Faults In Just 7 Easy Steps

Are you encountering problems with your Playstation console and in need of some good PlayStation 3 troubleshooting guidance?

If you have been experiencing problems lately with your PS3 then you'll probably be feeling pretty hacked off and annoyed at this moment. I definitely was, especially as Sony don't seem to give much PS3 help.

You've spent a lot of your hard earned money on paying for a PS3 , which isn't cheap to start with, and then for your PS3 to die on you when it's still looking as new and like it's just out of the box, despite that it's out of warranty, ain't a great feeling.

It's maddening to note that Sony make out that they're only getting a low 1% breakdown rate on their ps3s .

When I was having problems with my Playstation console and looking for troubleshooting info , what I learned was that there were boat loads of PS3 owners just like me facing PS3 failures. Just take a look at the number of Google searches being made for PlayStation 3 faults or web surfers looking for help on how to put right this or that problem . Go to any respectable PS3 forum or chat room and it's the same conversations being had. The truth is that Sony's claimed 1% failure rate is insincere to say the least.

It was with delight that I watched a BBC watchdog documentary that revealed the reality in relation to Sony's failure rate, it's justifiable humiliation for what strikes me to be a "too-big-to-care" stance.

But those misguided rocket scientists at Sony don't want to own up to the truth - it's either that or they just don't want to tell the truth that they've a considerable difficulty on their hands .

This state of affairs with PS3 gamers raising a stink about problems with their consoles has gotten so woeful that one of the most frequent errors has become widely recognized in the PS3 arena as the "Yellow Light of Death" or YLOD.

This is really humiliating for Sony and yet they do not look as though they are that worried .

If you are still inside warranty my advice is return your PS3 to Sony so they can sort out the problem.

When searching for help on the internet , be careful not to simply go along with some of the web tips and to start probing inside the PS3, you'll merely end up negating your warranty. And what's worse, maybe you'll be left with an even more impressive, mind-blowing bill so as to sort out some additional new problems.

The only catch to mailing your PS3 to Sony is that it can take as long as 6 weeks for Sony to return your PS3 console , which is a real drag.

However, there are a few artful tricks I discovered from a cool dude called Rob Sheffield, an expert PS3 repairman based out in Melbourne, which solved my PS3 problem without paying out a single penny and what is more it will not void your warranty, if you have one .

If you are reading this and you are unlucky enough to be having problems with your PS3 and your warranty has ended , then be psyched up to be clobbered again by those muppets at Sony because they ask you to fork out a tidy $200.00 to have your PS3 console mended and that is without new parts. Incredible! Some companies must assume that money grows in our back garden or something. It's bonkers!.

You may as well grab a new one at that price! And perhaps we should all pick up an Xbox to demonstrate to those birdbrains at Sony that they need to pull it together .

Having said that, I don't want to take all the credit . As previously stated , I was lucky to get a lot of assistance from Rob Sheffield who was okay with me posting some of his advice on the web in conjunction with some other information that I chanced upon. You can get hold of this in the link below .

The difficulty with the internet is that unless you know where to look for sound information on any issue, as with anything, you realize that there’s a mixed bag of great information and a lot of careless info that can result in irreversible damage to your PS console.

Do you really want to take that chance?

If one follows some web information regarding restoring your PS3 , it’s very easy to suddenly reach the conclusion that it is necessary to pull apart your PS3 console . What many don't realize is that it is so easy to make a hash of it . So, if you don't feel able or confident taking your console apart, then don't do it.

My advice , if you are thinking of pulling your PS3 apart, don't do it, not least until you have evaluated other straightforward solutions by going through some simple-to-follow troubleshooting steps, which you can put into action directly without any expertise or skills, or running up costly repairs.

What many PS3 gamers don't realize is that a significant percentage of the causes for PS3 breakdowns is largely caused by overheating? The problem with the PS3 is that it is basically liable to failure and that is the reason why an increasing number of PS3 owners are experiencing problems . I have put together a whole page on the point of the best PS3 care for lowering, as much as feasible, the danger of their PS3 console breaking down. A lot of it is common sense but I have incorporated some nifty tricks too that should help you get the most out of your console .
