The system doesn;t turn on. According to the manual its either too hot and needs to be left or I need to clean the vent. Where is the vent? As it aint hot at all.

Make sure the vents aren't obstructed or clogged and that the ps3 is in a cool area. From what i've read it's probably just defective and no amount of 'leaving it to cool' will fix it.

Hopefully it's still under warranty so give Sony a call, if you're in Europe the number is:
