PS3 flashes red - you can do that
Below we have put together some helpful tips for you so that the PS3 works again without errors:
- If the PS3 flashes red when starting, it may be due to insufficient fresh air. Therefore, make sure that all fans are exposed. For safety, you should regularly clean the console fans so that the console is always adequately ventilated.
- Also, do not place the console directly on the wall and do not place any devices that can radiate heat directly near the console.
- If the problem persists, leave the PS3 turned off for a few hours and then try again.
- If the problem persists, the error may be greater and should only be resolved by a specialist.
- If you still have a guarantee on the console, you can claim it and send it to Sony. However, keep in mind that you may get a new console and your game saves will be lost.
