Please leave the annotations on while watching this entire video. I've added a few important points that I forgot to mention while I was recording the video.

First and foremost. I take no responsibility for any damage done if you attempt this process. This is a simple "how to" for anyone who wants to attempt to fix their PS3 their self instead of paying Sony $150.

Having said that, I've had a lot of people ask for a video of doing a reflow on a PS3 after getting the YLOD (Yellow Light of Death) so I decided to make a video of the process.

If you are not sure of your own ability's then do not attempt this. Just pay someone to do it for you or spend the money and send it into Sony.

I had to split this video into two parts so be sure to check out part 2 after this video finishes.

Here is a link to a really good manual wrote by gilksy if you would rather have pictures. http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=ps3&thread.id=3733409&view=by_date_ascending&page=1
