The PlayStation 3 Slim is the second version of the PS3 video game console with the original model number CECH-2000. Produced by Sony Computer Entertainment it fixed many issues of the original (fat) Playstation 3. It was released on September 1, 2009.

Why is my console killing the red light sometimes?

My PlayStation 3 sometimes play and switch itself off and doesn’t show the red light ?

Hi!

Can be caused by multiple things.

1: Overheating. Please open up the device and remove all the dust! Also replace the thermalpaste. Test the PS3 and see if it is solved or not!

If not, proceed to 2.

2: Power supply issues! Please replace the power supply for a new one and see if it is solved.

If it's not solved after this, then it's most of the time motherboard related. But, please check the other options first.

Please let us know how it goes!
