Author Topic: Power Went Out - PS3 not turning on  (Read 1498 times)

Alright so me and my friend were playing GTA V and all of a sudden my internet goes out and he calls me up saying his power went out (he lives a few miles away), so anyway, now his power is back on and his PS3's red light is NOT coming on and it wont turn on.

Is this thing totally fried? Is there a way to fix this or naa?

He has a PS3 Super Slim.

sounds like a power surge fried his ps3
he's gonna have to replace


May sound dumb but did he check all the plugs? Maybe try a different outlet

This is why you always plug your valuable electronics into a power strip, kids

Yea, he tried 3 different outlets. And either way, the one it was plugged into also was being used by his TV which still works.

Power strips don't do anything. If you have a surge protecting one then it's a tiny bit better. Usually the best way is to have a household surge protector.

The red light not coming on is a probable sign that the power supply is either defunct or not working properly

I have a really good one, my family can't afford to replace something on short notice, let alone replace my Wii U.

This seems to be the case.

Is there anyway to replace the PSU?
