Ps3 not turning on

    Hey guys,

    Ok so back when dex first got a public release, i converted my BC ps3 to dex. After a few days playing around with it, i went to power it on one day and boom! No joy. So i wasnt sure wither it got bricked or it was some other failure.

    The problem: When i plug the system in, the red light will come on but as soon as i press the power button the light disappers and it wont come back on when i switch the button behind the console. also when i plug it out and back in the light is still gone. BUT if i leave it for 5-10 minutes and then plug it back in the red light will appear again and everything repeats itself.

    I bought a replacement power supply for the ps3 and swapped it out but it didnt fix my problem. I tried changing the power cable and the actual power socket on the ps3 too.

    Any help would be greatly appericated, i have a backup of the nand also if i did brick it somehow.

    Thanks for the time
