You have to open the console if it s a fat you have just to put your finger on the little piece of metal coming out the power/eject board if it s a slim i have no idea : )

it's a slim , @XBSRocksX , if it's the ribbon cable is it possible to rotate that cable? , the side that was plugged into the power/eject board now goes to the mainboard..

if there's really a damaged line it should hopefully be switched to one of the leds.

since there's a flasher involved i have no idea either..

on the fat ps3, rotating the cable should work,looking to the pinout, because there are two grounds.



i don't think this pinout info will apply to the slim ps3....

it's probably easier then bypassing the damaged wire.
