Hey Peeps, Ive researched as much as i could, but their is no problem similar to mine, well not that i could find through google or through any of the questions made on ifixit, i hope you i can get anyones help? it would be much appreciated, i really dont want to move on to the slim 0_0 now Im not 100% sure as to how it happened, but according to my little brother who was playing as i was away, played and made an update for MW2, after it had finished, it would not turn back on so Problem: PS3 has the red light as soon as i turn on the AC power switch on the back, As soon as the power button is pressed, it disappears and nothing happens try turning the AC switch on and off, red light dosent come back at all Solutions attempted: replacing the power supply unitold 40GB PS3 hard drive (unformatted)new AC power cord After Replacements were made: AC switch on, Red light would appear, i press the power switch its goes green for one second then disappears and never comes back again Where im stuck: Is it the YLOD? Is the motherboard fried? Should i replace each and every part that could relate to the problem? ive read replacing the ejection button ribbon cable might help? (which ive ordered) Any help would be awesome! Cheers John

The internal power source is not making sufficient contact to the two protruding pins take out the power source and put it back in and press down on the power source to ensure your making good contact, should take care of it
