[@scribble71891]

Also, for those who like doing maintenance/teardowns on their ps4, make sure you plug the Blu-ray drive all the way in. My brother's ps4 remained in a off state until it was fixed. You'd think it be the power supply but it wasn't.

[@playfullysadistic7903]

[@nightwalker1973]

I've just did a whole cleaning of my system and now it doesn't tuen on manually (only remotely via the controller). I have a doubt about the flexible cable that connects the disc drive circuit board to the mother board and i noticed that one corner of that cable is not tightly secured (i can make little movements). I'm wonderimg if that is the cause of my problem.

@@boardyix if ur PS4 is the Launch Model, the 1000 model, there is a trick called the washer trick in which u install washers under the Clamps that hold the mobo which will put enough pressure between the APU and the mobo, and this fix is not permanent, the fix can last for days or even months, the other way u can do it is if u reball the main APU by heating it up and Putting new Solder Balls Under the APU but I'm not sure if Reballing is a permanent fix for the BLOD

My launch Pro was hit by lightning in Feb. home took a direct hit, as in: There was arcing in the entertainment center (and elsewhere) with utility boxes and HVAC stuff blown to bits and even a vehicle totally disabled by EMP (only thing insured; already got a check). Surprisingly, the Pro still seems to power up into standby but attempting to fully power up kills it. You have to unplug and replug to get it back in standby. Seems that the PWM works since it responds to the controller once per plug-cycle.

The first time it happened, I bought a new power supply it came in the mail, plugged it up and it worked. That one only lasted 4 months though even though it was still brand new. So me thinking it was the same problem bought ANOTHER power supply. It just came in today put it in and the game isn’t working still. Idk what the issue could be. If a new power supply worked the first time why won’t it work this time?…

[@kilroy987]

My base PS4 would sometimes scramble its storage (I think) while uploading a shared video to KZbin. Afterwards, I would try to turn it on, get a blinking blue, and then it shuts off. No response. The only way for me to fix it was to reinstall the system software (not the Update file, but the FULL install) on a USB stick, in safe mode. I would have to reinstall all my games, and hopefully I had a recent data backup so I didn't lose all my save data, too. But at least it got back up and running again. Back up your data often!

So, the PS4 has been randomly shutting off (been happening at the start of June, never dealt with this situation before) and I'm not sure why. I'm starting to think it's my outlet (it's the only one I can use as of now) because I plugged it directly into the wall and it still doesn't turn on. Repairing an outlet might be expensive and I don't wanna resort to that just yet. I just recently bought another power cable and I do wanna buy another power strip (I've had my current one for some time now).I really don't wanna have to resort to buying another PS4 or doing a repair. Until then, I will try doing troubleshoot options to see it works again. I really hope I don't have the BLOD. It usually shuts off by itself and I don't have to do it manually.

I've got a PS4 that won't power on after its been turned off for awhile. But, when you unplug it and plug it back in, it works fine...you can play games all night long without a problem. I've restored default settings, it's on the latest firmware, rebuilt database, etc. It's not the power button because it won't turn on from the controller either unless it's been unplugged and plugged back in. I've tried using a different power strip, different power cable and even different outlet....strange that it will work once powered on (you can even shut it down and reboot it as long as you don't wait for 30+ minutes)

Nice video sir.. Hmm i would like to ask you something, about the mother board of the ps4 slim.. Some say the mother board of the slim is to thin compared to the other version, what do think of this sir?is it worth to have a slim version or should you upgrade to other version.. What are the disadvantages if that is true (slim having a thin mother board) i appreciate your reply, TIA

Unless you're looking for the better performance that a Pro would give you I'd stick with the Slim.

[@charlesbunsoy3042]

I see.. Some say that once the slim overheat the motherboard could damage and there is a chance that it cannot be fix anymore because the slim has a thin motherboard, ex the cpu/gpu will need to reball.. But since it overheat the motherboard damage also the other side of it or it will get cracked therefore you cannot fix it anymore? Is that true or it could be possible to happen since the slim has a thin motherboard? Sorry for my bad english hope you understand what I am trying to say hehehe thank you again sir..

I just fixed a PS4 just like that. Bought it off ebay and I was the first one to take it apart, seals intact and so on. No reaction when I pressed the power button. I even took apart the PSU and checked for continuity, everything checked out. Was quite bummed that I had to take it apart, the PS4 Slim has way too many screws. When I turned it around I realized that the ribbon cable that connects the power button board to the mainboard somehow wasn't connected. I reconnected it, attached a power cord and HDMI and turned it on. The light went white, I had a picture on the screen, everything worked. Put everything back together, put a harddrive in, and it was even reset to factory settings. Don't ask me how this happened, maybe the previous owner dropped it in a weird way so that the ribbon cable came loose, I don't know.

I have a first gen one where nothing happens at all when pressing the power button. Eject button does nothing, I get no lights, no beeps. I checked the cord and I have 120v to the connector that plugs into the ps4. I've checked the fuse inside the power supply and it's good. I read the pins for the small connector that goes from the power supply to the motherboard and I have 4.7v on the appropriate pins. The owner totally jacked up the hdmi port using things like aluminum foil (I don't know why, but that's what she said.) but the port ultimately failed. I've replaced the port, all my pins are soldered and look good via microscope with no movement and no shorting to each other, checked via multimeter. It doesn't take discs and I've tried plugging a controller into the usb port and pressing the controllers PS button but still nothing at all happens. I've tried pressing the power button for a LOOONG time and still nothing. I've also replaced the battery.

[@ikkinreklaw1]

Thanks for the help. Very useful

[@digitaljay_yt5544]

My PS4 comes on then turns off fast help❗️

[@Tronicsfix]

No way for me to know for sure. Could be power supply or APU

[@marskhan9471]

Ive just unplugged. The HDMI and turned my ps4 sideways n finally got mine to stay on I'll update this comment if it fails its only been on a couple minutes

[@dienkill2078]

Same ☹️

[@Skivstar]

Had the same issue with my ps4 pro. I thought it might have been from dropping on the ground accidentally when I was moving house. I'd like to know how to fix, I was also told from our local computer repair shop it could be APU.

[@constantin2379]

I have a ps4 SLIM that is ONE WEEK OUT OF WARRANTY, blue light turns on for one second(beeps too), then the system shuts off, and is unresponsive until you unplug it. Same issue if I try again after unplug. Does not stay on long for enough safe mode. Took apart and dusted off insides, fan, power supply, etc to no avail. Please help me out TronicsFix! What do you think the issue is?

[@Tronicsfix]

Could be power supply but could also be the APU or some other problem. Just no way for me to know unfortunately.

[@kinslayergaming3159]

My ps4 beeps but won't display lights or anything what could it be?

[@federico9481]

Kinslayer Gaming take out HDMI cable for a ew minutes at least two. Then put back in

[@ThBacelar]

Since the day before yesterday my PS4 Pro doesn't want to turn on anymore if I leave it off during the night when I go to sleep. The solution I found was to use a hair dryer to heat it up before turning it on, then it turns on normally and I spend the day playing. I will not turn it off anymore, I will always leave Sleep Mode.

[@iiGr1Mm]

That's so weird.

[@JotaroKujo-et4em]

Which area to heat?

[@sweetcakekreance1018]

How much do you usually charge to replace the the power supply? Thanks...

[@no_ego_jay7697]

The power supplys are different prices depending on what model PS4 slim you have

[@keeanutrout2955]

If my ps4 power supply blew, will replacing the power supply fix it?

[@MuttyBX]

Mines isn't even making any sounds...I think I'm screwed.

[@georgemay1485]

Your cables probably aren’t plugged in try plugging them in 👍

[@johnsondon8145]

[@jasone5083]

I wish you would make one of these videos for PlayStation 3. my old fat PS3 just beeps 3 times and won't power on.

[@spectator1189]

Thanks mate I plug it in the main switch instead of the extended cable switches It did the job If I didn't watch this vid first, I was ready to open the ps4 without having a clue😅

[@hohenheimhumonculus4372]

I have PS4 slim and my bro through it and it won't start , could you help me with that ? The console look normal nothing is broken

[@TayisPlay16]

I did so much crying and the cord was not even plugged in. I literally cried like Kim kardashian “WHY!”

[@wayneteo7871]

Hello sir , in your opinion which one is better use to play in long hours , ps4 slim or ps4 pro?

[@bruv482]

I press the turn on button and it turns blue for about a second and then it turns off

[@TheReaperOfChess]

Same let me know what solution might be

[@mustafaasim9544]

Same what's the fix

[@bruv482]

I found out what it was

[@bruv482]

it just overheated that's prob the case or ur system is fried. well if it is the case that ur ps4 overheats a 8 dollar fan that connects to the bottom of ur ps4 is what I bought or just wait it out overnight

[@johnforsyth8414]

I just did a deep clean on my PS4 following another video on KZbin For some reason that little ribbon cable to the power supply won’t connect back to the pins on the power supply . Everything else goes back in place, but I can’t get that cable to connect at the top to the power supply. No matter what I do it seems loose. I can’t get this thing to power up. I did use an air compressor to blow out the power supply earlier . But that little ribbon cable won’t seem to connect to the power supply after putting it back in place . The bottom is fine on the motherboard. It’s the top connector. It just doesn’t seem to have a good fit.

[@mineingaway2582]

Omg I was so scared this helped thx so much I thought my PS4 finally broke I was sad then got this I remembered we had a power cut when it was on thought it was broke turn out the plug was out a bit 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@killerklown8266]

I need help with my ps4, I don't know what happen to it but every time I boot up a game it shuts down into a black screen, and after that happens I try to turn it on but it won't make any noise, nor beeping sound plus the lights won't even turn on. The only way to make it turn on is if I unplugg it and plug it in again, then it would turn on.

[@theyeetyracoon4399]

Thank goodness i thought someone used a mod menu to turn my ps4 off I’m a dooding idiot

[@XxRumbleBeexX1]

Have a question, i looked at all your videos on KZbin, but my ps4 is acting differently then the ones you posted, my ps4 slim when powered on will stay blue for 28 seconds, then turn off, could this be a video issue, or the typical apu.
