Sony PlayStation 3 Slim Processor Clamps

Schritt 1

Drehe die PS3 um und lege sie sorgfältig ab.
Ziehe vorsichtig den Garantieaufkleber vom unteren Gehäuse ab, um an die darunter verborgene Schraube zu gelangen.
Um zu verhindern, dass beim Aufkleber die Schrift *VOID*, also "ungültig" erscheint, den Aufkleber vorher vorsichtig erwärmen. So kann man ihn sauber entfernen und wieder aufkleben.

Don’t even need to bother with the sticker anymore since SONY does not care what you do with them anymore.

Schritt 2

Benutze die flache Seite eines Metallspatels, um die sieben Schraubenkappen an den Kanten des unteren Gehäuses herauszuhebeln.

Schritt 3

Schraube die sieben 37 mm langen Kreuzschlitzschrauben aus dem unteren Gehäuse heraus.

Schritt 4

Schraube die vier 13,3 mm langen T8 Torx Sicherheits-Schrauben unter der Öffnung des BD Laufwerkes heraus. (Einige Modelle haben nur drei Schrauben)

Its 4 screws beneath the blu-ray

Manuel -

Remove the four 13.3 mm T8 security Torx screws beneath the Blu-ray drive opening.

Daniel Tlapa -

Can we edit this to say 4 screws?

revanantwraith -

I made the change from three to four screws, but you're able to edit the guides as well. If you want to edit something, you can click the Edit link on the right side of any guide step, or the Edit link at the top right of the page (sandwiched in-between View and History).

Taylor Arnicar -

Do you guys have a guide for the PS3 Slim Model 3001A. The fan is different than this model.

emknight04 -

3001a is basically same motherboard but cheaper plastic bd drive other than that its exactly the same until you get to the new slim line

Robert -

Anyone know an online retailer with a competitive price for the replacement fan?

Jared -

My PS3 had only three Torx screws. Having four in the diagram was initially confusing. Obviously they made a mid-stream change at some point (mine is several years old now).

corygbooker - 03/12/14

I've accidentally removed the ribbon cable from the blu-Ray drive and can not seem to figure out how to reconnect it. Can anyone help?

OneIfByLand - 29/10/15

Take the top off the drive, connect the ribbon to the motherboard then replace the drive sliding the ribbon through the slot on the bottom of the drive and reconnect to the laser.

KcXbox Repair - 31/01/16

pls help i have to tear down my ps3 slim but the 4 srews are very hard to take it out because there is a needle in the middle pls hep

Vincent Brabandt - 26/11/16

If the screw has a pin in the center, that means it is a security Torx meant to prevent tampering. To remove this screw, follow the guide I have linked below...

Telpack - 05/02/17

How do u buy the screw driver for these screws

mistergalacta hoggy - 09/08/19

Online at the usual suspects?

Or some hobby stores or places that sell tools will sometimes carry these.

revanantwraith - 04/01/21

Anyone else's screws for this step need the T7 bit instead of T8?

Michael J Cotton -

What is the name of this screwdriver

Mohammad Shawa -

Schritt 5

Hebe den Deckel zuerst an der hinteren Kante an und klappe ihn nach vorne.
Hebe jetzt den Deckel der PS3 vollständig ab.

I just want to open the top cover to clean the fan. Do I need to unscrew the four security screws?

Aryan - 12/04/21

Schritt 6

Drücke die Rasten an der Netzeingangsbuchse und ziehe sie gerade vom Netzteil hoch.

Schritt 7

Ziehe den Stecker der Gleichstromversorgung an den Kabeln gerade hoch und aus dem Sockel am Netzteil.

Those two screws are tight down there what do you recommend I use?

Megan bronner - 07/08/18

Schritt 8

Das Netzteil ist mit zwei 7,6 mm Kreuzschlitzschrauben am unteren Gehäuse befestigt. Drehe sie heraus.

Question: if a screw doesn't come out, what do you recommend, without potentially damaging the system, inside and out?

kramiz2488 - 29/06/16

It seems these can be quite tight, but they did come loose with someextra force in my case. They did that thing where it makes cracking sounds, but nothing really breaks. They're just really tight in there. - I just wouldn't recommend taking these out too often.

Michael Hendriks - 15/12/17

The screwdrivers on the guide didn't work mine just don't come out any tips model is slim CECH 2001A

Step 8

Jose Arrieta - 22/08/20

These screws work as a ground pass through between the motherboard shields and the power supply. My cousin took his PS3 to a repair shop to replace the power supply, they didn’t put the screws back in after that and the PS was shutting down suddenly (no light green or red), put a couple of new screws and it’s being working fine since

Mauricio González - 31/05/21

Sometime ago i took apart my PS3 out of curiosity, When puting it back together, i messed it up, I stripped one of the PSU screws. Now, i can't take it apart for a paste replacement. Any ideas?

Franco Iván Bello Rojas -

The screws don't come out how do I fix this without breaking anything

Suck dick -

I had the same problem with very tight screws on PS3 power supply. I solved it by purchasing a Screw removal / extractor gripping pliers long nose style , with unique non-slip jaws for quickly extracting damaged / stuck screws. ENGINEER PZ-60 Neji-Saurus,Silver. ( bought mine on Amazon)

These pliers have special grips on tapered end to hold and turn stripped or rusty screws. It took a lot of effort, but screws finally came out using these pliers. A bit of sewing machine oil and prising under the washers with a flat screwdrvers helps too. Failing that, take it to repair shop as they are VERY TIGHT screws on some models of PS3.

hubert hanks -

Schritt 9

Hebe das Netzteil an der - von vorn gesehenen - linken Kante hoch.

Schritt 10

Hebe das Netzteil weiter an der linken Kante hoch, bis sie sich von den Metallstützen löst, so wie im zweiten Bild zu sehen.
Entferne das Netzteil von der PS 3, achte darauf, dass sich keine Kabel verfangen.

It seems it kind of ends for me here. I can only lift the left side about an inch and then the right side stays down like it’s stuck to something underneath. It feels like I’m bending something. Could something have melted underneath?… It's really stuck, I can't get it to come loose. And I can't see much shining a light into it either. - Any tips?…

Michael Hendriks - 15/12/17

Did you undo the screws?

Phoenix Jameson - 22/01/20

I had the same issue but was able to get it off. The right side (as per the above picture) has two long column like sections that actually goes into the machine. Took me a bit of wiggling and some brute force.

Ivan Amaro - 28/12/17

You just lift the whole power supply up. There’s no need to start from the left? Is it possible to bend the two metal posts if lifting from the left?

Ken - 08/08/20

Needs medium flat screw driver as wedge to help to lift the power supply in the right side or exert more force in your right arm provided the front of PS3 is at your front.

Dasol - 18/12/20

Um, I translated the guide from French to English and the name of the guide was “Food” and the description said “This guide shows you how to replace your diet” The translation is incorrect just to let you know!

Liam Kandell - 14/03/21

Hi! Thanks for you attention! But no worries, the French word “alimentation” means power, food or diet depending the context.

Claire Miesch - 15/03/21

Alright, thanks!

Liam Kandell -

Schritt 11

Wenn vorhanden, musst du die Klebestreifen, welche die Kabel auf dem Laufwerk festhalten, abziehen.

What does the white and black cable?

Robert Brown -

Schritt 12

Klappe den Sicherungsbügel am Verbinder des Blu-ray Flachbandkabels mit dem flachen Ende des Spudgers oder dem Fingernagel hoch.
Achte darauf, dass du nur am Sicherungsbügel hebelst, nicht am Sockel selbst.

Schritt 13

Ziehe das Blu-ray Kabel gerade hoch und aus seinem Sockel.

Schritt 14

Ziehe das Stromkabel des Blu-ray Laufwerks gerade aus seinem Sockel am Laufwerk.

Schritt 15

Das Blu-ray Laufwerk ist mit einer 9,5 mm Kreuzschlitzschraube am Gehäuse befestigt. Drehe sie heraus.

Schritt 16

Hebe das Blu-ray Laufwerk leicht an der rechten Kante an und löse so die Steuerplatine aus ihrem Sitz.
Entferne das Blu-ray Laufwerk von der PS 3.
Beim Zusammenbau musst du darauf achten, dass die Steuerplatine wieder richtig in ihren Sitz im unteren Gehäuse passt.
Wenn du das Laufwerk durch ein neues ersetzt, musst du die Steuerplatine vom alten auf das neue Laufwerk umbauen.

my cd drive has 3 cables, two by the fan, one right under, i believe i damaged the one on the bottom because it is very difficult to put back in hence the repair. But the photos here dont show the 3 cables, not sure if you have one for this model?

Eduardo Cutino - 30/05/14

I followed the steps and I successfully removed my disc drive the guide was helpful but I had issues and the ribbon cables on my replacement disc drive were too short after a soddering attempt failed I now need to rebut a disc drive can someone direct me to a proper replacement with the correct size I need it's a ps3 slim 120G please help

Nick - 27/09/14

I popped a friends apart to see if I could put in mine, which won't stay online for more than 1minute 10 seconds. Plays DVDs fine. Anyway, his had 3 cables and mine only has 1. How do I know which DVD player to order?

ntdoc - 02/02/15

Completely different drive in my slim. 3 ribbon cables on the back that pull straight up out of their connectors. And one wide ribbon hidden underneath and almost impossible to get to. After disconnecting the 3 visible cables lift the back of the drive about 3/4" and use a plastic spudger to release the clip on the cable before lifting off the drive. Reinstalling is a nightmare. The cable has a black line to indicate how far to insert into the connector. Get it in there somehow then use the spudger to push the clip down. If it's not level release it and try again and again and again until you get it right. Sony must use some awfully small fingers when they build these ;-)

jurquijo - 15/06/17

I had the same issue with the ribon feeding beneath the blu ray player. This video provided a much better solution. It requires dissassembling the blu ray: https://youtu.be/Upy2bTev3M0

Rebel Seven - 27/08/17

My disk drive needs to be replaced. Your step by step is straight forward and are very helpful. At the end you mentioned “If replacing the Blu-ray drive with a new drive, swap the circuit board from your old drive into the new drive”.

Which circuit board? Can your please add a picture of the circuit board you are referring to?

Henry - 12/03/18

@hh168 There’s now a link in the text of that step, which will take you to a video with detailed instructions for swapping the board.

Jeff Suovanen - 18/06/18

First I replaced the drive and it would load a disc and see that it was either a game and which game or a BluRay or DVD and which, but I got error codes when trying to play them.

The codes seemed to be tamper coding, and swapping the board seemed to be a good idea.

It went smoothly, but now discs will not feed into the drive.

Please help.

Zachary Mannes - 23/12/19

Schritt 17

Ziehe die Netzkabel nach oben und entferne so die Netzbuchse vom unteren Gehäuse.

Schritt 18

Heble beide Antennenstecker mit dem flachen Ende eines Spudgers aus ihren Anschlüssen auf de Motherboard hoch.

Wo kann man das Flachbandkabel kaufen weil meins kaputt

Mikail Bastas -

Schritt 19

Ziehe das Flachbandkabel der Steuerplatine aus seinem Anschluss auf dem Motherboard hoch.
Entferne die Steuerplatine.

Schritt 20

Drehe die PS3 herum und lege sie auf ihre Rückseite.
Lasse die kleine Zugangsklappe auf der Unterseite nahe an der Front der PS3 mit Hilfe des flachen Ende eines Spudgers aufspringen.
Entferne die unter dieser Klappe versteckte blaue Kreuzschlitzschraube.

Schritt 21

Schiebe die Abdeckung über dem Einschub für die Festplatte zur rechten Seite des unteren Gehäuses hin, ziehe sie dann von der Vorderkante weg und entferne sie von der PS3.

Schritt 22

Ziehe die Festplatte an ihrem Metallgriff aus ihrem Einschub heraus.

Schritt 23

Entferne folgende fünf Kreuzschlitzschrauben, mit denen die Motherboard-Einheit im unteren Gehäuse befestigt ist:
Zwei silberfarbene 6 mm Schrauben
Drei schwarze 8 mm Schrauben

Schritt 24

Hebe die Motherboard-Einheit an der Vorderkante an und entferne sie vom unteren Gehäuse, denke aber dran, dass das Antennenkabel immer noch am unteren Gehäuse angeschlossen ist.
Sei vorsichtig und verbiege beim Ausbau der Motherboard-Einheit nicht die metallenen Antennen.

Schritt 25

Trenne die Kabel der Gleichstromversorgung und Blu-ray-Versorgung vom Motherboard ab.
Ziehe die Kabel senkrecht nach oben, so dass sich die Stecker aus ihren Anschlüssen auf dem Motherboard lösen.

Schritt 26

Ziehe das Lüfterkabel senkrecht nach oben, so dass sich der Stecker aus seinem Anschluss auf dem Motherboard löst.

You have to be very very careful on this step as the connector is very fragile. One wrong move and you can end up with a ripped off connector which wont be repairable.

Source: Followed this guide and ripped off the connector from my PS3

Jatinder Singh -

I’ve broken the solder on the fan conn. Any help?

Brian DiGiaimo - 12/04/20

I think I can solder it

Brian DiGiaimo - 12/04/20

I have also ripped off the connector and only realized when I wanted to put together.

Visegradi Istvan - 24/06/20

ONLY FOR EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIANS!

It is not impossible to clean the removed connector from the panel parts and then glue the connector back on the panel. It depends how much connection is left on the board (you might able to clean a bit of green carefully to increase connection size) with a bit of experience you can solder it back/together again. The power and ground needs better connection since it needs to able to carry the current. The RPM signal has the least connection size on this side of the board but it needs only a bit of connection.

Other possibility to bring from the board other side the 3 fan connection points with some tiny cables but that is more labour intensive and you might need to cut a bit from the metal panel to make space of the cables.

Anyway it is a doable job for an experienced repair person.

Visegradi Istvan - 26/06/20

Schritt 27

Entferne folgende neun Schrauben, mit denen die Motherboard-Einheit zusammengehalten wird:
Vier 14,8 mm Kreuzschlitz-Schulterschrauben
Fünf 9,5 mm Kreuzschlitzschrauben

jesus chris what screw driver do i use for the 9.5mm phillips i cant find one anywhere

Capsoul GotTheHits -

The PH#1 screwdriver from iFixit's "Manta" driver bit set worked fine for me

Nicholas -

Schritt 28

Entferne die beiden Kühlkörperklammern von der Unterseite der Motherboard-Einheit.

Schritt 29

Heble, falls nötig, das Motherboard vorsichtig von der oberen Abschirmung nahe beim Kühlkörper und seinem Luftkanal ab.

Schritt 30

Drücke die Platine behutsam von der oberen Abschirmung nahe beim Lüfterstecker und die Ecke der Platine nahe bei den Drahtlos-Anschlüssen weg.

Schritt 31

Hebe die obere Abschirmung an ihrer Vorderkante vom Motherboard weg.
Achte darauf, dass du beim Wegdrehen der oberen Abschirmung vom Motherboard keine Anschlüsse beschädigst.

Schritt 32

Hebe das Motherboard behutsam von der unteren Abschirmung weg.
Fasse das Motherboard nur an den Kanten an.

Schritt 33

Drücke die Kunstoffhalterung nach unten gegen das Board und heble gleichzeitig die PRAM-Batterie mit der Spudgerspitze aus ihrer Fassung heraus.
Wenn du beim Aushebeln der Batterie nicht gleichzeitig die Halterung nach unten drückst, kann es passieren, dass sie sich vom Motherboard ablöst.
Bevor du den Kühlkörper wieder befestigst, musst du unbedingt neue Wärmeleitpaste auftragen. Diese Anleitung zeigt dir, wie das geht

Abschluss

Um dein Gerät wieder zusammenbauen, folge den Schritten in umgekehrter Reihenfolge.

The most hardest thing of taking consoles apart is putting them back together. I strongly suggest you guys to explain with details on putting it back together. It might be easy to you all but there are people that rather read a few pages than completely $!$@ up the system console.

DAGO5 -

I can easily open the console but I have no idea where to buy the motherboard from.

I live in Europe btw.

Eemil - 23/04/16

do not force the fan cables out , my grey cable broke of and my power supply cable attached to the motherboard, make sure you take the whole white cable rapped with inselation tape to mae sure the chip doesnt brake off . good luck with it

Kostas - 17/03/20

I have PS3 SLIM 320GB Console CECH-3004B, but the mainboard is damaged. I have another console CECH-3001A. Can I put the 3001A board into 3004B body ?

Gaming WITH AA -

Fantastic guide overall! Doesn't cover screw head sizes as well as I'd like, but that for the most part isn't a problem here, as it's mostly just variations of Philips heads. The other concern is the lack of clarification that other people may have models that look quite distinctly different inside, but the guide was still easy enough for me to follow overall.

Nicholas -
