- Your data is 100% safe on the hard disk
- If a game is stuck in the drive, then this is safe and will be returned with your working console.
The most common cause for this fault is when the UNLEADED solder on under the CPU and RSX chip cracks, this is due to the solder breaking down due to heat stress. It can also be caused by the RSX or CPU chip itself actually failing, if this is the case then a reball is required.
We repair this fault by resoldering the consoles mainboard using our Computer controlled Dark Infrared BGA rework stations, these safely re solder (reflow) the main board to exact manufacturers specifications. This ensures that your consoles main board is not damaged or stressed during this process.

We will fully resolder your consoles main board, give your console a full service and upgrade the thermal compound used within the PS3. For your peace of mind we give you three months warranty.
From dead to silent running
The team went above and beyond. Not only did they sort out the YLOD, but they fixed up some mystery case damage and had the whole system running silently when it was returned. The best part was that they kept in contact about how the repairs were progressing and consulting me about any issues that came up.
Went above and beyond
So helpful in keeping me up to date, fixing an additional fault, all at an excellent rate.

It was bad news unfortunately
Sent my original pride and joy PS3 for a repair after it got the dreaded ylod. After posting it off to console wizard it was discovered that the CPU was beyond repair so that was the end of it.
Absolutely gutted but the guys at console wizard tried their very best and a full refund was given and my PlayStation was sent back to me in no time.
It didn't work out for me this time but I would recommend console wizard to anybody who needs a repair.
