The yellow light on your PS3, also known as the Yellow Light of Death (YLOD), typically signals a hardware failure. Time to consider a repair or upgrade!
Had this happen to my PS3 a while back. It's usually a hardware issue, often due to overheating. You might need to open it up or get it repaired.
Basically, yellow light = bad news. Your console's sick and it needs a doctor.
