    PS3 Fault finding YLOD with the SYSCON - First steps and Error reporting

    Well, it looks like to me, the thermal paste is not making contact between the die and the IHS. Do a de-lid of the CPU seems to be required. Then, new thermal paste applied to the CPU die should resolve the thermal error Sent from my SM-F936B using Tapatalk
