Sony - PS3 Hardware Problem - View Post

Hello fellow PS3 users. I've come across a hardware issue with my PS3 that hopefully can be fixed with help from here. My 20gig launch PS3 decided to shut itself off yesterday, during a Netflix session, and tried to reboot itself. The light turned green then the system beeped followed by flashing the red light. After looking that up, it seems as if the flashing red light is symptomatic of an overheating issue. The thing is, i've always had my PS3 in a well ventilated area so there's proper air circulation and I dust if off regularly so i'm not sure why it would be overheating. Are there any solutions?
