I will offer my sympathies if you are one of the unfortunate gamers who's system has been struck by the terrible Yellow Light of death, You've been raking up high scores in your favorite game all night and when you tried to continue your streak in the morning you were met with a few beeps and the green light becomes a disheartening yellow. This really sucks for gamers to see, especially those that play their PS3s a lot. This article will go over a few tips that can get your PS3 working again if the real issue isn't a complete hardware meltdown. I typed in "fix ps3 yellow light" into search engines and I was amazed by the amount of results I was able to find.
The very first thing you want to do is make sure that all of the cables are plugged in properly. Sounds stupid, but trust me, many people have had the same problem and hopefully you will have this quick fix.
If your warranty is still good then contact Sony and schedule to ship your PS3 to them and let them fix it. While on 0.2% of the PS3s have this problem, that equals up to thousands of consoles. One problem with using this option is that you're going to have to wait 6 weeks to get your system back, which may be a terrible experience for a die hard gamer.
If you warranty period is over, you'll want to open up the console and make sure that the hard drive isn't loose. The hard drive can cause the yellow light of death but simply reseating it can get you back playing your favorite games. Once you decide to take that step and open the PS3 however, it voids any warranties that you have on the system. Don't try this step unless you are sure that your warranty period is over or you can expect to pay $150 for Sony to fix it.
The next option, again, is only on PS3s where the warranty is already dead. If the prospect of waiting 6 weeks doesn't sit well for you there are an abundance of guides available on the internet that will provide detailed step by step instructions on how you can fix your PS3 on your own. If you can follow directions and have the tools this option looks a lot better than sending it to Sony.
