Needed to replace the bluetooth board as the one my PS3 burned out ... once I figured out the problem, googled the part and here it was. Upon delivery cracked open the PS3 to find my model used CWI-002, so now its held in by just one of the two screws, but whatever it works and I'm happy Sony wanted $129+ shipping to diagnose and fix the PS3 this part cost $1.30 + shipping instruction for how to replace the part are all over the internet so, need I say more .

I had a local guy fix my PS3 when I got the YLoD a few months ago. He again fixed it when a power surge screwed up the power supply. But I couldn't justify bringing it back in when my machine got into an update loop. After some Googling I discovered that a possible culprit was faulty hardware. Just before the looping started I noticed that my controllers would not work over Bluetooth. Putting two-and-two together I figured it couldn't hurt to see if swapping the Bluetooth board would solve the issue.

One special screwdriver and a simple guide from iFixit () and we're now back in business. The only problem now is we bought a new PS3 Slim while the old machine was out of commission. Sure fixing it allowed us to get some old data backed up and off the machine. But now I'm not sure what to do with the machine. =/
