PS3 Is this YLOD?

[420puffpuff]

Hi guys,

Few months ago, I bought a PS3 slim which was in really good shape actually. I did CFW and played some games until recently. It only had one issue, the OS was asking me to put the date every time the system got started. I figured that this had to be a CMOS battery.

I left it like that, continued playing as I eventually ordered some thermal pads, new paste and CMOS, so I could change everything at once. Eventually, the Ps3 stopped booting. When I press the power button, the light goes green, yellow, 3 beeps and starts blinking red.

I assumed that CMOS was definitely dead, so I waited for all parts so I could change everything.

Surprisingly, the issue persisted. Is this YLOD?

disassemble again and check for shorts. take a look if everything is properly seated, especially the backplate. its not quite common that slims suffer from the typical ylod. they can but its quite rare, so u should check your work first.
