It seems to be the same issue than I have with my 2504A.

Normally, a PS3 does that when there's a short circuit, but I didn't find anything abnormal when inspecting mine.
Not sure why it's doing this. Probably a pressure issue. I don't think you even need to remove the power supply. Just removing the top cover (releasing the pressure from the screws) should allow it to boot, normally.
Actually, my 2504A is still going strong, though I don't know for how long :\

that's begin to happy after i applied a new thermal paste
 
So, that's a bit different from my situation. I applied new thermal paste as well, but in my case, the issue appeared weeks later and somewhat randomly.
Are you sure everything is mounted correctly ?
Did you have to force to loosen the old thermal paste ? Maybe it stressed the BGA in some way.
That's strange, though. In this case, more pressure would be good but here, it's the contrary it seems.
 
i solved the problem one of the mother board scrow plate was missing so i put another one and put back the cover and now it runs as before so do as i did
