    PS3 CECHC03 60GB YLOD Troubleshooting

    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:

    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 invalid and auth invalid even though the wires hadn't changed. I will try that again though. In the meantime, these are the codes I have from SYSCON:

    My thinking is that 2110 is the issue and causing the 1001 error. I don't know if 1004 is anything to worry about with it just appearing once and I'm not certain 1002 is a major issue, again due to its infrequency. Does anyone have any other thoughts and maybe some ideas on what to check next? Any help would be greatly appreciated. END

    I have since added this extra information from last nights crack at it:
    To add to this, I tried to get internal access again but still received the message of ‘scopen response invalid' and ‘AUTH invalid'. I tried reconnecting the Diag and TX but no luck. I've since desoldered them so I'll try soldering them again later. I have replaced the thermal paste and assembled enough to test. I get fan spin then it immediately turns off and I'm left with a red blinking light. It seems to be about 3 seconds before the yellow light flashes and the beeps appear. I'm stuck at this point on what to check next. I have followed @RIP-Felix guide and had success up until trying internal access.

    Based on what I could find about 2110, I could do with the schematics to locate the 5V_MISC and other components mentioned plus some guidance. If there's something else you can think would be worth checking then I'm all ears. Thanks in advance. I can provide photos and videos if required.

    I did some more tonight, here's what happened:

    Another evening on this. It was going ok then I knocked off two components as mentioned before. Not sure what they are or if the can be left out. I have one but lost the other, if someone could shed some insight that would be appreciated. I have since been able to get internal access and can post the results of the in depth error log as well as the bring up results if that would help someone assist me. I have tested the PSU and get in the kΩ on one of the 12V pins and get 5 volts on the two 5 volt pins in the psu so I'm guessing that means it's something on the motherboard resulting in the 2110 I keep getting? Does that sound right? Thanks in advance.

    Included pictures of what I knocked off and where they were

      Also, if anyone has a schematic or knows where to find one, please can you let me know?
