Why won't my AV jack work on my PS3?

When I first bought my ps3, which was about 3 years ago, I used the AV cable for my TV, then I bought and HDMI and used that for about a year. Then I brought my ps3 with me to a different place and brought my AV cable with me and it didn't work, I wasn't just that TV it didn't work on, so I assume that its my ps3 that having problems, can anybody help me fix it?

    When your PS3 is off, simply hold down the power button and keep it held down as the system turns on.

You will have to do this every time you switch from HDMI to AV.
