Which Yellow Light Of Death Fix Really Works?

When you buy an electronic product, especially one that doesn’t exactly come cheap, you expect that it will be manufactured in a way that enables it to last and always perform when you need it. Unfortunately, millions of owners of Sony PlayStation 3 gaming consoles know that the machine that they paid a lot of money for is not free of problems and they will probably need a good yellow light of death fix sooner or later.

The yellow light of death is just one of many errors that you can get on your PlayStation 3. You may also find that your machine is subject to repeated error messages, the inability to read disks, perpetual green lights, red screens, other errors that make it unusable. But, by far, the most commonly sought after fix is the yellow light of death fix.

Sony will tell you that in order to accomplish a true yellow light of death fix that you have to send your console back to them. They will charge you approximately $150 for this and take up to six weeks to send your console back to you. What they might not tell you is that the console they do send back won’t be yours, and because of that, you will lose all of your information. No matter how you look at it, this is not a good deal.

Another thing to keep in mind if you do send your console back to Sony is that you are given no guarantee that you won’t have to send the replacement back for a fix as well. So, it is a good idea to know how to fix this issue on your own. By choosing online fixes that you can do by using your own tools and household items, you will never have to send your machine to Sony.
