This playstation 3 repair guide is meant to provide a basic explanation of how to narrow down possible causes for video signal failure and where to go from there, once you've determined a possible causes. While most ps3 repair work should only be made by an authorized repair center, some basic steps are useful to know when problems arise.
You should start by checking the television's settings. Make sure that the proper input is in use, as many television sets allow you to edit input labels. This is very helpful when multiple similar inputs can be connected to the same television. The Playstation 3 uses the HDMI inputs. This Playstation 3 repair guide is meant to be relatively elementary, so it will not cover the details of HDMI cables.
Once the television is all set to display the correct input signal, you must next make sure the connections are all properly in place. HDMI connections, those used by the playstation 3, only are able to fit into one particular type of connection on the back of the TV. Because one cable carries all these signals between the devices and TV, there really is no possibility of connecting these cables incorrectly.
With the conventional composite or component connections, which employ an "RCA" type of connection, it's possible to cross the video and audio cables, causing failed signal transmission to the TV. For instance, video signals in composite video connections is generally carried by a yellow cable. But this cable also fits either audio connection (R/L), usually white or red. If they are crossed, there will be no video signal displayed.
Look in your playstation 3 repair guide and confirm you have properly connected your TV to the device. You can reset the video resolution configurations if there still no signal to the television. Just because you cannot see the menu on the screen doesn't mean you can't do it. Using the correct button sequence on the machine itself, you can still set it to the lowest, most compatible settings.
To reset video output to standard, 480p resolution, first power the system off. Then, touch the power button, and keep your finger on the button for approximately 5 seconds. The system should automatically reset video resolution settings back to that standard (480p) option, which is compatible with all modern television.
If you have exhausted the steps above, try further research on the internet, using popular search engines to find a wealth of additional knowledge. Try using phrases like "playstation 3 repair no video" and "playstation 3 video signal." If unable to resolve the issue using all reasonable methods (i.e., everything short of disassembling the unit itself) contact a nearby electronics repair center and find out if they are certified to work on the device. They will have the tools to repair, or replace, your playstation 3 to get you gaming again in no time.
