So far i think the issue might be a bad solder joint within the VRM, DC jack, and or the capacitors

When i heat it with a hair drier in the back part it boots normally, the oddity I notice comes to when I plug the console in and receive said blinking red light, if I heat it afterwards while it flashes the red light, turning it off via wall plug does nothing, it still blinks red after disconnect and connecting, only after unplugging the console does it boot normally given its been warmed first

here is the motherboard if anyone has a sharper eye then me, ask me if you want closer/better images of a specific part, does anyone know what might be happening?
