Here you can order our professional PS3 laser repair service for PS3 consoles using the KES-400AAA lasers, these lasers are found in the original 60GB model PS3’s as well as the very first 40GB models, we have a table below that will show you how to tell which laser type is in your console by checking the model number, once you know which laser type your console has you can order the correct PS3 laser repair service. Some of you may be wondering why the price of the 400AAA laser service is more expensive than the 410ACA PS3 laser repair service, we have copied the message from our lasers product page that explains why the cost of this PS3 Laser repair service is more expensive. We feel this service will mostly be taken by people that own the good old 60GB models that are able to play PS2 games, because those 60GB units are still worth a lot of money because of their backwards compatibility, if you own a 40GB model that has the 400 laser you will have to ask yourself if it’s worth paying this much for a laser replacement of if you should just buy one of the new PS3 Slim consoles.
The reason this PS3 laser repair service is so high is because the factory that has refurbished these lasers have not just done a quick fix and they are properly refurbished, 90% of the stock have totally new diodes, a diode is the part in the laser that shoots the beam of light and is in 90% of cases is what fails in these lasers, so having a new diode pretty much means they are as close to a new laser as you can get, the other components used in these 400AAA lasers last a lot longer than a diode does, so once the diode is actually replaced they are as close to a new laser as possible, the 10% that have not had the diodes replaced have been properly assessed with an oscilloscope and the factory believes the diode to be in perfect condition. Another reason the price is high is because we actually make sure here that the lasers are good, each laser is hand tested for over an hour each, first with a Bluray GTA 4 game, which we all know really pushes the lasers, second with a Bluray movie which has the highest data rate possible for the laser to read which also gives the lens a good test, and lastly with a DVD movie to check that section of the laser. Also the disks used are extremely scratched to make sure the lasers can handle real world conditions, so we don’t test them with brand new perfect condition disks, as this is not a realistic test. We can source these lasers much cheaper from other suppliers, but they have a 50% fault rate, some will die in a week, and some will last a month, we just can’t install something that will only last 1-week to 1-month, that is why these lasers cost so much is because they have had the expensive diodes replaced and then are hand tested here by us to make sure you are buying a quality part. Don’t let the price fool you with this product, cheaper does not mean you will be getting the same thing for less, there would not be many places that go to the extent we do to make sure what you pay for is a reliable long lasting laser for your PS3 console.

Our PS3 laser repair service comes with a 6-month parts and labour warranty, if the laser fails at any stage in the first 6-months we will repair it again free of charge, you will need to cover the return postage costs, but with saying that our lasers are top quality and you should get years of gaming out of the console once our laser replacement service has been carried out.
2. Included in the service is a full clean of the inside of your console, while not being able to tell from the outside, a lot of PS3 get a build up of dust and fluff in the console that can inhibit the airflow throughout the console, while completing the PS3 laser repair service we clean out all this dust from inside the console to maximize airflow, this can help prevent overheating and the dreaded YLOD failure, also it’s not good to have dust get near the eye of the lasers, so the cleaning process will reduce the amount of dust floating around the console.
