PlayStation fan wanted to save his PS3 console after the yellow death light appeared: he wrapped it in a towel, dried it with a hair dryer and completely deformed it

A user on the PS3 subreddit, seascouuut, shared an interesting fix they tried and asked for opinions. Their PS3 was failing, and they wanted to avoid a complex repair called ‘reballing,’ so they decided to try using a hair dryer to temporarily fix it. While it sounds strange, this technique has been documented in older YouTube videos. It often buys enough time to back up game saves before the console ultimately stops working.
