My pops fucked up my PS3 taking off my external fan (I don't know for what reason) and playin COD WAW, causing my PS3 to overheat, I guess, because I got the "yellow light of death". My question is, is there anything I can do by myself to fix the PS3, or I just have to send my PS in?

First thing you MUST do, is go down to the beach and get yourself some shit that they call sand, after you do that I will reply with the next steps.

see what you need to do is go down to the beach and get yourself some sand

fill a half litre plastic bottle with the sand and put the top on it

use the sand filled bottle to beat your father repeatedly until he passes out

go through his pockets and take enough money and valuables to buy yourself a new ps3

your new ps3 should work perfectly and play games

hope this helps

damn thats a rip off.. find yourself someone on craigslist who can do it for cheaper.. they usually charge a little more for keeping the seal intact so your warranty is still good.
