I am having the same problem with my old PS3.. A guy told me it would cost 9k to fix it.

Wow. That's expensive o. Did he say exactly where I can fix it?

Ok thnks. I rily appreciate.

One reason that a PS3 might have a blinking light is because the cables are loose on it. The fix is easy! All you have to do is check the connections of the wires coming out of and going into your PS3 to make sure that everything is secure. Once you have checked and made sure everything is tight, try restarting your PlayStation console and find out if this took care of it.
Another reason that you might be getting a blinking red light is because your PS3 is overheating.
This is an issue that most of the time messes up a PlayStation for good until it is fixed. If you have your gaming system in a closed area, you should move it to a well ventilated one. Let it sit and cool off for a few hours and then try once again to turn it on. If you are still getting a flashing red light then you have the biggest problem anyone could have with their PS3.
The most common reason for getting a PS3 blinking red light is due to a hardware failure. Most of the time what this means is there is a problem with your motherboard...
