Yesterday I droped my Playstation3 slim, and after that it won't turn on. Or, it starts. But after about 3 sec, it turns off again.. What can be wrong? Can I fix it by myself? And what should I do?

While hard (fixed) drives are more tolerant today than a decade ago, they are precision devices and subjecting them to hundreds of Gs will wipe out sectors. I suspect the unit shuts down because the drive is no longer capable of locating the required files to start up.

My playstation3 wants to start but just for a second then shuts off again

If it blinks a red light when it turns off this is known as they yellow light of death(ironic i know). This is caused when the unit overheats causing solder on the board to melt and bridge (connect). Once this happens it shorts out the board causing the error you have now. Contact Sony and see if the unit is still under warranty.

Power button failure

  • Power Light Shuts Off
    If the power shuts off during game play (even as much as 30 minutes after the system is turned on), then turns off and won't turn back on or the fan isn't working, the system needs repair.
  • Power Light Flashes
    If the power light flashes once when power button is pressed, then turns off and won't turn back on, the system needs repair
  • Not finding what you are looking for?
