Yellow Light of Death

A question for all of you Sony savvy people, related to but somewhat irrelevant to the course, how do you fix a PS3's YLOD? I don't want to face that this could be the end and am mildly certain overheating was not the cause seeing as my console is connected to a fan and I also ran the machine's own fans on high a couple of times to cool it. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

    YELLOW LIGHT OF DEATH!! NOOOOO!!!!
    CPU or GPU overheating and removed from motherboard, although it could be bad power supply. I highly recommend not trying to repair solo, repair of this is not guaranteed. You will need soldering gun and tools to match.

    Anyway walkthrough as follows:

    Good luck.
