      I may be mistaken but I believe a red light of death is different to yellow light of death and typically indicates bricked firmware or other hardware fault.

              PS3 CECHC03 60GB YLOD Troubleshooting
              by Woodsworth
              I have a post on psx-place for this but thought I'd try here as well in case anyone has experience or the schematics or any kind of help. Here's the original post from psx-place:
              START
              Hi, so I bought a YLOD Fat PS3 as I wanted a repair project and thought it would be a good way to get experience. I was able to solder to the RX, TX and Diag pads on the COK-002 motherboard and was able to get external access and retrieved the codes. I haven't powered it on beforehand so these should be the last ones. I did try to get internal access immediately after but kept getting scopen response...

              Burned IC Silicon Power SSD
              by eniac22
              I have a burned IC on a Silicon Power SSD S55 240GB. The marking of the chip is KW7YD.
              I can't find any info for this chip, where can find the same or compatible?...

              Dell 2007WFP resistors under white silicon blog
              by BustinCaps
              My beloved 2007WFP just died on me. It has a green blinking light that just cycles through various display numbers. For a while I noticed it would blink slightly like the refresh rate was off. Nothing I have done has been successful in turning it on. So I took it apart and looked at the USB board since many people have had problems with the resistors under the silicon blob. I looked at the various other boards for the obvious signs such as blown caps, bad fuses, burn marks etc. Nothing looked obvious. I also checked most of the caps with an ESR meter and they checked out good.

              White Compound on Electrolytic Caps
              by paulstevens
              Hello, what is the white compound used to "glue" capacitors down to a board so they don't vibrate? Is it RTV? Does it have an official name or function?

              What I am really asking is what can I use to replace it when I find it broken or cracked on boards I am looking at.

              Thank you.
