I have a fat PS3 model not backwards compatible.
I gave the PS3 a cleaning in the inside and gave a fresh thermal paste in it artic silver 5. And it still shutdowns when I power it on for a few seconds. The red light starts blinking. I'm thinking that the console thinks that it's overheating so it shuts down. Is their a sensor that the PS3 has?
Es esta una buena pregunta?

As Tommy Gurreri suggests, was the fan correctly connected after the cleanning?
Other possibility is did you put too much thermal paste? Notice only a little is necessary. Using too much may be as harmful as using none, because the thermal paste is only needed to fill the microscopic gaps between surfaces, not to create a new layer by its own.

Fan is connected I know because I Connected it for sure and once I power on ps3 I hear the fan for few seconds before shutdown. Maybe I probably put too much thermal I watch a YouTube video. I got watch another one and buy more thermal paste if necessary.
Thanks for reply guys.
