A heat gun, some thermal paste and a few screwdirvers and it'll be like brand new.


Not always sadly.

Well in the case of the YOLD it works. The YOLD appears mostly because the processor is overheating. The console prevents it by shutting down automatically. You only need to change the thermal paste (and clean out the dust) for it to work again. I know several people who've repaired their 60Go after a YOLD and their console works now like a charm, and it's a very easy fix.
