3001 is usually an issue with the 12v rail. Either a faulty PSU or a short on the board on that rail. If your PSU is ok then you’ll need to track the short. It is quite common on COK/SEM & DIA revision boards to have one or more faulty MLCC’s on either the CELL or RSX VDDC input rails. Check...

@littlebalup @vyktormvmpay25 I'm hoping you can help here. Long story short! 1:COK-002 with a 40nm Franky mod.(on 4.91 Evilnat) 2: Downgraded it to 2.76 - To test the theory of using an Orbis to update FW on a too Low of a Firmware GLOD Franky.(ie: 3.10 or anything under 3.4ish will just GLOD...

Where in the rules does it say a “mod” is allowed to have a personal opinion on a users doings outside of a broken rule?? The above mode said “no advertising” was the rule i broke,deleted my post and then had to have his 5 cents worth on my console prices etc with a “wtf” to go with it. I...

”Baby with the bathwater” Wtf is that? And why,as a moderator did you feel the need to over compensate on your personal opinion about my “A” series PS3 and BGToolset hosting I do for my own personal use ??? . It was actually nothing to do with the “NO advertising” rule break you flamed me for ...

** INFORMATION AL - NOT ADVERTISING** Check these out. NEC replacement boards. They replace 2 NEC's at a go. The Gerber is public for single units but I cannot post the link here unfortunately.

1: 99% of the time it is a wiring issue. Have you grounded "DIAG"? 2: Computer Booter can help you with that.

I've had it with other codes on a sherwood system and the fix has been RSX NEC's A0801002/2022/2024 RSX NEC Caps - All errors together in the log. 1

Paco is right. Boards with the 201GB SYSCON will only produce 3034 without any other error code like later SYSCON revisions that will throw a 4XXX and or a 2120 with the 3034

If it was off an KTE then there is a high possibility that it was foobarred prior to lifting it to use elsewhere

L0x and K0x units can be a miriad of things but from my experience with them,It's either a reball is required or the NEC caps need replacing. You are best to dump the SYSCON log and see what it pinpoints before randomly attacking components.

Huh! Me? Just giving some real world experience lol. Go back under your rock if you are pointing your finger at me lol

I've tested this theory many times. A cap issue in the log and apply 5-10 seconds of heat with the wand @ 100 C and it boots. I highly doubt that is enough heat nor time to reconnect a bump or bga ball with very little heat from the want going any further than the caps area but it certainly...

Yes dad! Lmao

I think you will find that the revision of RSX plays a big part in it also! I have found CXD-2971-1GB revisions to be the most stable and reliable, and is my go to if replacing the RSX. I buy them in larger qty and preferably use these over any other revision. I have seen more long term rersults...

dunno mate. You need to bring some real data to the table by the sounds of it! Not to sure you can,can you? Just someone with theories and estimates because what you read and hear? I’m not going to entertain you any more lol
