    So i decided it was time to clean out the ps3, i opened it up cleaned it all out put it back together, switched it on, put a game in, needed an update, half way through the ps3 turned itself off. Now it wont turn back on, anyone got any ideas why?

    Mobo short? Psu blown?

    No red blinking light at the front? If not I would say it's either the PSU or something overheated.

    Was thinking psu, but just read that the eject/on ribbon cable might be the problem. When i have the power cable plugged in and turned on i hear a soft clicking noise so i know there is power.
