Hello Guys I mistakenly brick my PS3. To unbrick the PS3 I order a E3 flasher but E3 clip cable is damage from middle( cut from corner).now I can't order a new one due to coronavirus the only way to repair this is connected with E3 linker but I don't know the test point of PPX 001 motherboard I also search on the internet but nothing found so plz anyone help me Thanks in Advance and soory for bad English
 
I was going to recommend that thread also. @littleballup was able to dump an emmc model with just an SD card and minimum solder points. If your console is a nor model you will have to use the e3 unless littleballup says otherwise

@littlebalup is the person to ask. He will see the mention when he logs on. He is one of the few I know of that has dabbled around on those models to try and dump the nor. Try connecting everything that is listed on that diagram.

According to wiki notes.

Test point "wp" is not used on E3 linker & the "byte " point should be linked to "bvcc" on E3 linker.
Both "wp" & "bvcc" are tied to vcc on the mobo side.

You should refer to the list of correspondences with E3 linker for mobo layout 5.

If ever you don't know what you are doing & you are navigating this blind, you should consider waiting for someone experienced in NOR superslim flashing.
