PS3 Phat won't power on - GeneralGuy - 08-05-2019
So I spent all day fixing my brother's PS3. I opened it up, cleaned it of all dust and dirt completely, applied new thermal paste, and put it all back together.
Well now it won't even power on.
There's only three things I can think of that could be wrong with it.
1. Damaged ribbon cables
2. Bad power supply
3. AC Adaptor is fried
Any help diagnosing the issue here?

Have you tried going to the Sony website and troubleshooting it?

The power supplies on ps3 phats overheat REAL easily, just replace the fan inside and a few components and it should be fine for life

It could be a lot of things honestly, capacitors would be a good start because of the heat but you're gonna need to go in and see for yourself.
