Yellow light and bip(pi pi pi)

how long was it trying to turn off before you unplugged it? it might of being performing an update which can be problematic if you canned the power to it while it was doing this.
you could try a factory reset but you will lose your saved data.

the light is usually yellow...i dont know whether your xbox work or not ...however if your xbox dint work just flashing red light u may try this site to solve the problem click hear

Yes it looks like you have the red light of doom you can fix it at home by stopping the heat with a few household items or send it in to get it fixed.

1. Make sure the HDMI cable is connected to the HDMI OUT port on the back of the PLAYSTATION 3 system. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable into the HDMI Input port of the TV or display monitor.
   
2. While the PLAYSTATION 3 system is in standby mode (red light on the front of the system), hold down the touch-sensitive power button on the front of the system until the system goes into standby mode again . (So the light cycle would go from: red light --> green light --> then back to red light). This will ensure that you have held down the power button long enough to reset the Video Output Settings.
   
3. Turn on the PLAYSTATION 3 system and once the system finishes powering up, the Video Output Settings will automatically reset to the standard resolution (or detect the current display output settings of your TV/monitor).

Have you tried moving it into open air?

If you have a warrenty take it back. but thats the sound itmakes when you try to eject the disk and nothing is in there.

lets try a few things bronx,

lets start by going over the beeps and lights. when you power the unit on. it should go Blue and stay blue. this means the unit is so far functioning correctly.

if your unit turns on lights up blue, then yellow , then red and stays red you have an issue

if you are experiencing the first scenario, press the power button till it goes red. which is standby mode.
then press button again till you hear two beeps, let go. make sure you have all your cables plugged in. this will send you to the diagnostic screen on the ps3 to select anyone of your options. since you are not getting a video display select the display settings and reset yours according to your type tv. if you are using a standard old school tellie, then its 480i, if you are on a plasma or lcd it would be 720p,1080i or 1080p. then you should be good from there


okay, if you are experiencing the second scenario its a much more severe issue. the GPU on the motherboard has gone bad, which is common on ps3s. if it is under warranty contact sony and they will send you out a refurb'd unit. if it is not under warranty there are a few good companies out on ebay that reflow or reball gpu chips on ps3s to repair this known issue.

since you are getting beeps and lights this is one of your scenarios. if you get no lights,no beeps then you got a bad Power Supply.

Good Luck!
