    When I turn on my ps3 slim the fan turns on the light goes green for a few seconds before blinking twices (and beeping) and turning Yellow

    I brought it to a shop and they said it was the YLOD and they couldn't repair it,

    Anyone know any way of fixing this or a repair shop that repairs this problem?

    A reflow or reball is what is needed. Expensive and specialised job and even then it may not fix it forever as the ps3 is a pain in the ass.

    See if there is anyone close to you on this thread who offer a reflow or reball. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055478489

    edit: sorry just seen this was posted more than a week ago. Sorry if you don't need answers now op.
