@baileyscream i do need the ps3 internals sat in the casing on this model due to the heat sink and fan being built in to the lower casing. I've sent a pic to your email can you take a look and confirm things look correct.

@donkey-punch Put a piece of thick glossy paper or thin cardboard between the E3 Flasher and the metal frame the motherboard sits on (if you have that metal frame attached).

Though it's probably just the E3 Clip not seated correctly. If you or someone you know can solder well I'd recommend E3 Linker. You'll be able to quickly wire BVCC and VCC to the 3.3v test point, wire a ground and see if the E3's LEDs become active.

i can't solder that's why i opted for the clip. If you look closely i have a coin underneath the clear tape for extra pressure. I'm gonna dismantle it all after work tonight and try it on an easier board. Gonna try my slim 2503b and see if i get any joy with that.

ok no prob.
that image is from the E3 website thats why the ribbon will look different to the one you have (slight improvements since E3 did that pic)

the way the ribbon curves over itself when you got it was due to it being used on a slim as the nor chips are positioned differently to the phats.

make sure you dont make a fold line in the ribbon just let it naturaly "roll" over the clip when you use it on slims if you make a fold line then you risk damaging the ribbon.
