Hello everyone, I recently got a broken CECH-3008B from a friend (he didn't want it repaired, he just gave it to me for free). He told me that it shuts down after pressing the power button (I couldn't confirm with the power button since the button board FFC contacts were broken), so I checked the PSU, however it's OK (5VSB measures ~5.5V, 12V measures ~12.6V). When I connected the Syscon UART to my PC (via a Raspberry Pi Pico 2W with https://github.com/Noltari/pico-uart-bridge), I got the following messages:

# all the other entries were FFFFFFFF FFFFFFFF as I cleared the errlog
I decided to fully disassemble the PS3 to check the fuses (all of the labeled ones are OK), and when I reassembled it and reconnected the Syscon bus, I instead got these errors:
>$ bringup

# [SSM] Bringup Start.

# others were either A0012041 or FFFFFFFF
The error wasn't described on PSDevWiki but a similar error (2040) with the same PowSeq error (but different Cond/Fatal) said this could happen because something on the 5V line is shorting, but the 5V line from the PSU measured normally. It also didn't trigger a automatic shutdown so I had to shutdown manually.
The Syscon is a SW3-301 with FW version 2.3.0, the board is KTE-001 and I don't know if there's a YLOD (since the button board FFC is broken)
