Maybe this will help if you want to try and do it yourself. A mod Dan_lero posted a blog about him fixing his ylod.

Thanks. I'm not tech savvy to that level, but it looks like it'd be worth a shot if I can't find a local or professional repair person.

Also, thanks to the other poster with the options.

There are usually a few people on craigslist that offer repairs. But most of the time it's about the same price as sony. I suggest trying to fix it yourself. There are lots of videos on youtube that will show you how.

Thanks. I'm finding some people on craigslist, but not all of them look professional.

Any other options?

Can someone point me to the best PS3 repair people to send my PS3 to? I have the launch 60 GB and just got the YLOD. Crap.

I'm looking for other options. Sony costs $150, which I can't really afford.
