Lann 10,846 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Anyone familiar with this issue: My ps3 (fat) do not send any picture to the tv, just black. Was working fine last night. Tried the reset thing, a second cable, second tv, still no picture. Its old, the laser gave up a few months ago, maybe this is the end. EDIT: Well, out of nowhere it started to work again. (damn glad i have the ps4 ready when it drops) Edited October 28, 2014 by lann3fors Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/3161-ps3-issues/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maha 302 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 The fat PS3 is a warrior. And as every warrior, it dies. Either in battles or age. Mine was lost in a battle against a burglar :| Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/3161-ps3-issues/#findComment-52121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torrid 653 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Are you using the HDMI connector? Sometimes ours loses sync with the TV when it switches resolution from 1080 to 720p loading up GTA. HDMI is an interesting design. It's not a direct feed of video like the older RCA and 3 plug video setups. What I've had happen is that the TV doesn't always decode the PS3 HDMI properly and restarting the TV always helps for us. I don't know if you've tried your PS3 on another TV, but it could possibly be the TV. Edit, missed the second TV part the first time. You've definitely properly troubleshooted it, but I don't know if there is a fix when it happens that isn't internal processor related.

zmurko 7,622 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Just gonna use this topic. Is anyone familiar with the insides of a PS3 controller? Is this piece of any importance (it's about 3mm big): It must have come from somewhere inside as I've found it stuck between the top of L2 and the case, causing L2 to be almost permanently stuck, but managed to get it out now. I'm worried it was holding something important together.

Banketelli 3,655 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I have had my controllers open a couple of times, but can't say I remember that little thingy.
