My sony playstation 3 slim black console turns on then shuts off blank no red light plz help me

You have a mother board failure and your system needs to be serviced.

If your PS3 console attempts to turn on, then beeps and a yellow light comes on and then your Sony PlayStation 3 shuts down or does not power on at all or shows no video means YLOD or Yellow Light Of death has occurred! A guy had same problem with His console 6 months back, He was able to fix it for 15 bucks ! without sending it to Sony for costly repair.

It needs to be serviced. It may be better to buy a slim instead, I think its the way of the future.

I think it's time to buy a new one or have the lens replace.

Well, after seven months I hope you have gotten this issue resolved, if not it sounds like your tv isn't on the AUX channel. Try switching your input to AUX. It should fix the problem

call sony now!

See if this works. Turn the system off till just the red standby light is on. Then hold the power button till it beeps twice and shuts down. Then turn back on like regular.

This could be any of a number of problems try these solutions one of which may work. If they all fail to work you can contact sony directly at:

• Remove any obstructions from the vents.
• Allow at least 4 inches of clearance on all sides for the PLAYSTATION 3.
• Remove the PLAYSTATION 3 from any cabinets so it is out in the open.
• Shut the PLAYSTATION 3 down completely and let it cool down to room temperature, then try running it again.
• If the fan cannot be heard before the system shut down, the PLAYSTATION 3 may need to be sent in for service.
• If there is no airflow from any of the vents, the system may need to be sent in for service

Hope this helps. Also be sure to rate whether this helped or not.

Hi Ron, To the best of my Troubleshooting knowledge on the Slim, this sounds like a Temperature problem. Do not lay the Slim on the carpet when playing and try not to keep it in sunlight. It will last you much longer to shut it off when not using it. Let it cool off and try it again. If dust is the culprit, you will need to disassemble the Slim and clean it out, mainly the fan. The Slims fan is very succeptable to dust accumulation. www.playstationclinic.com

is the button jammed or loose that might be the problem.which kind are you using original PS2 or slim version?
