THIS COMMON PROBLEM IS KILLING PS5 CONSOLES! CAN I FIX IT?

[@commanderphantom]

Great video! I manage a small pc/laptop/phone/tablet/console repair and recyling shop in the states and love watching this kind of content! We don't have all the proper tools and know-how that you do to perform the microsoldering at your level, but the information is helpful to me and my techs. The 3 of us have started delving into microsoldering and can def say that you've been helpful in our endeavor. Keep the content coming! Cheers!

Excellent job Phil and good work on the documentation on your findings for easy assessment on a particular failure. Keep up the good work.

[@seraf1t]

Which revision to choose? Is it better to wait for "slim"?

[@ultramac1550]

Excellent job, where can we buy the TheCod3r coffee mug?

[@sergiojimenez3415]

I bought a faulty ps5 but was lucky that a capacitor and one fuse was the only thing that blew. It’s super helpful for you to provide your videos for future fixes.

[@sergiojimenez3415]

It was a capacitor on the F7502 part of a EDM-010 board.

Great job Cod3r 👍

[@TheCod3r]

Cheers mate, much appreciated 👍

[@joseone69]

good job i was watching you fix it and me changing a hdmi port on a ps5 first gen

[@screen-protector]

An another video for my technicians, thank you.

[@graphicscardtech3167]

Where do you buy the MN864739 because I had bought a couple ones and they make the PS5 to not turn on

[@microgamingrepairs1981]

@thecod3r I've got one here that I don't think I've seen you get. Runs pefectly fine for 3-5, minutes in a game. Freezes and outputs a horrible sound to the speakers the shuts off. Liquid metal is completely fine, can't find anything on the board overheating. Think it's a ram issue? I doubt it's a power supply issue...

[@DarthSimous]

Keep it up, man ... Stellar diagnosis & repair 👍👍

[@danielhulan3058]

Man Phil with that cheat sheet you've basically done all the work for other people. That's something you should be paid for honestly.

[@Raytechable]

where i can find the cheat sheet

[@DemiGod3]

Does anyone knows where the PWM fan pin is connected to, what drives it, series of components leading or a driver/controller or straight to the APU or SB? please let me know.

[@t4nk3d402]

Should add another column with # of occurrences and see what is the most common of the common

[@rorykelly8275]

Hi Phil. Here’s a challenge for ya to make a video. I was hoping to try this myself but I don’t have a technicians microscope. How about trying a drift stick fix by using conductive paint. Clean the carbon track first with IPA then paint the effected area to see if it brings the potentiometer back to life. Then test the controller to see how long it lasts. It might make an interesting video.

[@wkjeeping9053]

I have never had an issue with my ps5 and going on 4 years now. But it's never turned off or sleep mode. I found out that you never turn off they last longer since the ps4 release.

All Hail TheCod3r! 😀

[@chicospaintingco]

Any links to get the fuse and caps ?

[@mipad553]

Can you put ps5 internal SSD in pc?

[@ozekici1985]

1 shorted cap. ,1 blown fuse and so many years….. 👏👏👏

Mlccs have been a plague for years, seems it’s getting worse too. I’ve a few vids on vestel power supplies where mlccs caused a short

[@REMEDY-REPAIRS]

Amazing job as always 💯🫡

[@rukiata7250]

how can we stop this from happening? is it from using rest mode?

[@TheCod3r]

You pretty much can't. It's simply down to poor quality components being used in the console when they were produced :(

[@serviplay]

Hi my friend. My play 5 with FIFA shows me the overheating message 3 hours later but at no time does the fan speed up and the console doesn't feel hot. Why does that happen to me?

[@serviplay]

The fan does not increase speed.

[@jonathansandiford4137]

How's it going m8. Hope all is well on your end.

[@SudburyMan]

Completely swapped out the thermal compound and got it on skates since brand new. Not taking chances.

[@microgamingrepairs1981]

PS5 doesn't use thermal compound and "skates" do literally nothing to help the situation...

Yo Phil.

[@garrycowan4394]

Bought a ps5 coz you said my series X was definitely going to die ..cheers I'm definitely not buying a switch 😂

[@MikeGervasi]

A shorted cap, you say? Never see THAT happen. Could have just left it off. One less to fail.

[@randysmith7094]

Not my favorite cunsole. I'll never buy a Paystation 5.

[@Atum1c]

The problem is the person not the ps5 …

[@mjc0961]

It's the person's fault that a multilayer ceramic capacitor went bad? Doubt.

[@TheCod3r]

Not at all. The quality of components is the problem. That, and ignorant fanboys who will never see a problem with their beloved company who doesn't give a damn about them once they've spent their money!
