    First download this file: FactoryServiceMode_Lv2diag_RSOD.self and then rename it to Lv2diag.self

    Place this Lv2diag.self in the root of an empty USB flash dongle, and use any method to toggle Factory Service Mode (FSM)
    • Copy the .self in this release to the root of a USB flash drive.
    • Rename the file to Lv2diag.self.
    • Place the flash drive in the right most USB port.
    • Toggle FSM.
    • Boot PS3
    • During FSM boot, the Lv2diag.self will execute.
    Upon success, you will hear a single beep, and the PlayStation3 will automatically reboot to XMB.
