yes
Start my making sure it is charged and connected to the PS3 by using the cable that comes with the PS3
Elite System Performance
I am not connect to the ps3
With tools obviously!
The lens/laser could be broken.
It sounds like you have BOPBD (burned out ps3 blu ray drive). A problem common to all ps3 slim and fat users. Or it could be that your ps3 blu ray lens is dirty. If it is dirty there are some youtube videos witch show you how to open your ps3 and clean it. If cleaning the blu ray lens doesnt work youve got BOPBD. Nothing you can do other than check your warranty and have someone fix it for you or buy a new one and watch a youtube vid. on how to replace it yourself.
The lens is not something that might be easy for your cousin to touch and you have not said whether it is a PS3 PS4 PS2 and they arwe very different. Deal with what problem it has in your question. Does it power up. Does the disc move and get read. If your Playstation is not a PS3 or PS4 it's time for an upgrade anyway
sell it and buy a ps3
Take it to a shop

The lens cleaner may be helpful for poor performance and not cases of a total absence of performance where the disc can not be read. Some people use a Maxell Blu-ray Lens Cleaner. The $24.99 disc sells at Amazon.com for $14.13 and the Maxell Br-Game Blu-ray Game Lens Cleaner sells for $17.44
send it to Nintendo and they will fix it for a price or just get a new gamecube
Fixing the YLOD on the PS3 will cost $150.00.
I dont know how to fix it so you guys are screwed
take it in for service at a SONY shop
