Do you have a link for your other video involving reapplying the thermal paste? I want to have a rough idea of what to do before I start ordering tools and parts.

[@heavenlyrequiem4019]

Do y'all still do repairs? This happened to my ps4 pro and I was wondering if I could send it in and how much it would cost

[@318boro]

Dude had faith

[@Brahemio]

Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤

[@TheCod3r]

This video is out of order. Putting a washer on your PS4 is going to make it worse! The APU needs REBALLING, not a tiny washer putting even more uneven pressure on the solder balls to make it rip traces up as time goes on. Not to mention warping the motherboard so it ends up beyond repair when the console does die again... AND IT WILL!

[@hoodiemelo2468]

What should we do then

[@CaptAra]

@@hoodiemelo2468get PS5

[@CaptAra]

Get ps5 😂

[@reigaterobot4965]

I would probably test it for before putting all those screws back in but otherwise a very helpful tutorial.

[@EyEhArTbEeR]

This is a common issue with alot of consoles. It gets hot and sometimes one or more of the solder balls looses connection. If this doesn't happen to work then it needs to be re ball'd. This fix should be considered temporary although you may get lucky and have it last a long time. If this happens to you I strongly suggest adding new thermal paste along with your repair.

[@freshprince2.0]

What needs to be replaced?

[@gamerX-wk7ct]

@@freshprince2.0 what your seeing here is not a fix and 90% of the time the console has been dropped and what happens is the apu the chip ends up with no connection to the board and sometimes inside the apu gets damaged if it's a solder joint it need removed and solder back down and that doesn't always work but what your seeing here is not a fix even if it works its still not a fix not a damn thing was repaired all your seeing is bs from youtubers that usually cause a young person to break there stuff beyond being repaired

[@yashileakduth928]

Mine started acting up again today, do I replace the washers with new ones, only need this ps4 to work till next month when I get a ps5, also have a disc currently in the ps4

[@naailahtaliep4496]

Look, i know that fix works most of the time but the ps4 you fixed and the one you turned on at the end looks like 2 differnet consoles. The one at the end of the video looks white but can probably be the lighting however that one has a chip on the front panel and the black one you were working on did not. HONESTLY I am not a hater just feel like your initial fix on the first part of your video did not work?

Its adds pressure on the APU chip which causes it to make contact with the board again (if solder balls underneath were the issue)

Problem is these companies skimp on cooling. Had Microsoft put a bigger cooler on the OG 360 the RROD wouldn't be a thing. Same with Sony and the PS3/PS4.
