PS3 SYSCON Tutorial | How to Diagnose the YLOD on PlayStation 3 using its own System Controller
t
thomasjohnson3456
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdGPyv0twmM
THIS IS A TURORIAL to gain access and utilize the System Controller IC on a PlayStation 3 to retrieve the error logs and basic debugging information. These are very useful to help diagnose and repair the console after experiencing issues, such as a Yellow Light of Death (YLOD). However, it can be useful for much more than that. I cover the basics, not the more advanced stuff you can do with it. This is mainly geared the novice who needs a windows tutorial. For Linux users, there is already a PDF tutorial on @db260179's github. I suggest you read through the other resources he has compiled in that download as well. There are usefull schematics, voltage test pad locations, and more.

PS3 #2: Ressurecting the impossable! | EPIC rollercoaster repair that nearly broke me. [vY6SaUaEg5o]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vY6SaUaEg5o
THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL.
In September of 2020, I attempted to fix my second Yellow Light Of Death PS3. PS3 #2 has been the longest running repair I've attempted. This video summarizes both my successes and mistakes over the two year period I spent on this console. As such, it's jam packed. The latter half especially.
This video is best viewed after watching PS3 #1: Tantalum Terror. I am telling the story of how I got into PS3 repair. I'm doing so in chronological order of the events.

This video condenses the last 4 years of my life into 90 minutes! It was a passion project and I hope that comes across. I tried my best to be objective, but there's plenty of opinion and theory. I soft launched this video and corrected some of the inaccuracies viewers pointed out. Thank you, your feedback was helpful!
I don't claim to be 100% correct!

A PS3 Story: The Yellow Light Of Death (De-cringed) [Za7WTNwAX0c]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Za7WTNwAX0c
The reception to this video has been incredible. I didn't think this video would get more than 1000 views, considering the technical nature and niche subject matter. While I poured my soul into doing it justice, this was my 1st video. And as such it has issues, which were pointed out in the comments. I went over all the critical comments and revised the video to address the most frequently mentioned issues.
- Memes reduced (without ruining the metaphors)
- De-clicker applied to reduce mouth sounds
- Music volume reduced
- Other minor tweaks to avoid confusion.

A 360 Story - The RED Ring of Death & the 7th Generation Console War [3qKtS_uxdcU]
t
thomasjohnson3456
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qKtS_uxdcU
I poured everything I have into this video!
I have spent the last few years researching the 7th generation consoles, specifically PS3 launch problems. What caused the Yellow Light of Death. I continue with the 360's RROD, with the help of Josh Davidson (AKA Octal450).
I deep dive into the 7th generation console war with a focus on their respective launch models and their issues.
How did Microsoft handle the 1st reports there was an issue? How did SONY? How did this happen? Who's to blame? I attempt to answer these questions and more. I offer my opinions about who I think won the 7th generation.
I hope it's not too boring, as the information contained is technical and dense. But instead of dumbing it down, signaling I don't think you can understand, I did my best to leave nothing out, while explaining it in the simplest terms I could. With illustrations and examples, to make it easier to conceptualize. I believe that people deserve the dignity and honor of my belief in them. So I will do you the courtesy of believing you will find value in this information, despite it's technical nature!
