Cheers guys! The eject button stopped working, so I took the top of to see if I can fix it, well didn't fix it, but put back together and the Ps3 doesn't turn on anymore.

Hope that helps.

Thanks again.

Edit: This is the one

PS3 is CHECH: 30XX

On the top part of it you'll see shiney metal with a cross shape in it, if this is rounded on the top and not flat then its blown. or if its pushed up loads there will be some brown type black stuff seeping out the top, if so then it needs changing. If you want to see a picture of what I mean then just put the codes I gave you that may be wrote on it into a search engine and click images it will come up and you can see what im on about. But if nothings turning on at all its gonna be a 99 % chance its this.

That's quite interesting mate. Something to keep in mind THANK YOU!
