Heads up rick. The ps3 doesn’t auto detect inputs so the AV probably works fine. You need to turn the system off and when you turn it back on hold the power button until you hear a second beep. That tells the systems to check which video signal is being used

@@retrorick alternatively since it's been set to HDMI you can go into menu settings and manually Switch it over to component cable and then it will work with just them like it's doing now that other dudes correct though the master reset option would have worked if you hadn't had HDMI too.

[@trixiegg2017]

u have to switch it to av and it will work

[@SuperNicktendo]

PS3 usually needs to be switched to a specific resolution in order for it to work. I know there's a way to reset it while it's plugged in so you don't need a 1080P TV to switch it for an analog CRT.

[@bdash32]

Came here to say same thing!

[@Not-Great-at-Gaming]

It's just a setting in the video menu. I think you need to set the output source and resolution. I think there is a way to reset it too, pretty sure factory setting is 480i composite out. I always had the opposite problem with PS3 and 360, get a new console hook it up to HDMI, but no video.

[@jmlchaosdragon]

there is actually a way to switch it up I think by holding the power button for a certain amount of time, so you don't need a hdmi tv to switch

[@mikejsouth]

I think ps3 reset, hold the power button, resets resolution to lowest or whats plugged in. Something like that.

[@Not-Great-at-Gaming]

@@jmlchaosdragon That sounds right.

For the PS3 this is normal since composite is disabled when HDMI is selected in the Video Settings, and vice versa. Nothing broken here.

[@MyRegardsToTheDodo]

Other than the Xbox 360 the PS3 doesn't automatically reset the output when you put in an AV cable and have used it on HDMI before. You have to manually reset it by turning the PS3 off and then holding the power button until it beeps 2 times. If you hold it too long it switches off, if you keep holding it it will beep 3 times and you're in the recovery menue (an inspiration Sony took from the PSP hacking scene).

When hooking it up on either av or hdmi you have to push and hold the power button down for like 20 seconds to swap back if I’m not mistaken. Hold down until it beeps.

You need to reset the display settings, with the system off (red light), press and hold the power button, as soon as you press the power button it will beep, keep holding it until you hear a second beep, then release it. This will reset the display setting back to the default output resolution of 480p through the av output instead of HD out of the HDMI port.

You can reset the video setting if you hold the power button for a few seconds until you hear a second beep when turning it on. It should output through AV if you do that.

Hey man, if the last output method was hdmi, and you want to switch to rca cable without first enabling it in settings, you can reset the video settings. While the console is off, hold down the power button until it beeps a second time, and lift your finger. It should show up on a/v. Moving from rca to hdmi is much easier since hdmi is digitally detected.

Hey Rick, so I had almost the same exact PS3 situation this past weekend. I found the fully backwards compatible launch edition PS3 at a Savers thrift store, but it was console only. The price was an astronomical $129.99, but lucky it was half off on green tags that day, so I picked it up for $65... plus tax. It was still a big gamble though cuz they did not accept returns. Luckily it works great, but the AV output didn't work, just like urs. I messed around with it for a while and found I had to change the output settings from the hdmi port to the AV port. Once I did that it worked as it should... I then switched it back to hdmi cuz who wants to use AV anyway lol. I hope this helps u figure out ur PS3.

I think the A/V probably works on that PS3. In fact, it's entirely possible that because the PS3 was resting on DVD playback, set to output on a digital HDMI connection, that it was disabling A/V when you powered it on. So once you hooked up HDMI, everything worked.
