I got the yellow light

some people say that the PS3 is unreliable. Mine was the original 60GB model and it has lasted me 2 and a half years with no complaints, i don't see this as unreliable. I got the yellow light yesterday and was wondering if anybody new any cheap places to get it repaired as sony is £100 (i think). preferably near the midlands.

Sonydon't ask questions. Give them a call. They might ask if it's out of warranty (mine was) but they took it in and fixed it regardless.

what was the cost

Nothing. They just took their time with it. Probs took about 2 weeks.

There's a UK, European and US number, a different one for each place. They'll be online somewhere. If your warranty actually is out and you say it isn't they don't ask for anything just say you've had it for less than a year eg. Got it in September. Don't know if they'll ask for a receipt! :)

so basically most 60 gb will fail? I hope my 160 gb doesnt, that is the bundle that came with uncharted 1. I believe that all those vents the 60 gb has , contributes a lot to dust entering ,thus causing overheating. When they opened my 60 gb as the place they fixed it, it had veryyy thick layers of dust, BUT the surface and vents itself was clean because I thought i was maintaining it proper. I fixed that console 5 times and it failed and sold it after the 6th. Let it be someone else's pain

just phoned. put me on hold for 15 mins then told them all my details and then they told me it was going to be £131 to replace it so I hung up. and you can't lie about the warrenty because they ask for your serial number

i got the yellow light i fixed it and after 2 days the yellow light of death showed up again i will try to fix it again

here in cyprus wich is in europe, the cost of repairing it is 200 euro and with 250 euro i can get a slim i will repair it my self again and if it does it again and again i will get a new ps3
