    Does an A0801002 Syscon points me to replace all Nec/TOKINs or just the RSX ones?

    Usually thats the case, sometimes it will be fixed if you replace only 1 RSX nec tokin (4 caps). If your console turns off instantly its RSX but if it turns off after 8-10 seconds then its most probably CPU and you can fix it with piggyback method by adding 2 or 4 caps near CPU nec tokins.

    Why does my PS3 keep shutting down?

    Your NEC tokins are going out. You can fix it easly without replacing nec tokins, since those are somewhat still working you can just add 2 tantalum capacitors (330ohm or 470ohm) near RSX tokins (piggyback method). I've done this on multiple consoles and it works great.

    Strange power issue with olx 3DS XL

    I worked on alot of 3DS XL consoles and never had this issue. Issue is when I turn off console and leave it for 10-15 minutes it wont turn back on until I remove battery and put it back in again. If I turn it off and wait 3-5 minutes it will turn on normally but if I wait longer (10-15 minutes)...
