Kinda wish you gave me more time to see what kind of screws go where like where black went and where the different sized silver ones went, this video helped but could've been a little more helpful with that
Thankfully, there aren't actually many screw types. With a little prep work you can pretty much figure out what goes where by watching a video like this. First sort the screws. You'll find that most of the screws are in three piles: black, silver, and slightly shorter silver. The two types of silver screw are where you're likely to run into trouble, since their heads look very similar. Here's the trick: the shorter silver screws have fine threads (the threads are close together) and always screw into metal. The longer silver screws have coarse threads (the threads are farther apart) and always screw into plastic. So, as you watch the video, any screw with a black head will be the black screws (and will be screening into metal) of you see a silver head, look into the hole. If you see black plastic, use the longer silver screw. If you see silver or gray metal use the shorter silver screw. All the other screws are different enough that you should be able to identify them from a video.
12:35, that's actually the WRONG way to put back the antenna. You need to drop the power supply first and insert the 2 prongs of the antenna into the bottom shell. The antenna actually clamps the PSU to the shell. If anyone does it the way it's shown in the video, you're going to have problems putting the top shell back. you can actually see the power supply not fully dropping in, due to the wrong way the antenna was put back. I had to learn this the hard way
Please help with this: Does anyone here know what brand is recommended and what size in millimeters for the thermal pads of the ps4 slim ???? Thanks in advance
Screw those thermal pads they go bad too you know that right I’m replacing mine with K5 pro it’s way better than thermal pads it replaces pads up to 3mm thick, did an odd PS3 *( man it runs better than it ever did there was no thermal paste on the RSX chip there was a tiny bit around it dried up the graphics on that system were never great now 1080p playback is crystal clear )* the other day there was no deliting it, strangest layout I’ve ever seen for a PS3 super slim I have a slim left to go that I know has two chips to delid *( after that all my consoles will be back to better than factory Sony uses crap thermal paste MX-4 is way better )* a lot of ppl don’t know under that big nickel chromium ihs’s there’s a laptop size chip and thermal paste under there that needs to be replaced as well I see so many repaste there ps3’s without dliting
I use needle nose pliers; with teeth. It's important to use little force when gripping (but enough so that the pliers don't slip) and lightly rock the plug side to side while pulling. Don't pull too hard or you can yank the wires.
Best disassembly video on UA-cam! I had the small silver loose piece left after reassembly. Wouldn't have had a clue where it went back without watching this 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
What a great video, watching this video I thought: that's a lot of work and many people don't recognize this work of the technicians to keep our consoles working, I don't have a ps4 ou Xbox (not yet), but I appreciate this work, Thanks for this video.
I will confirm this. This video is SPECIFICALLY for the CUH-2015A or B or whatever 2015 model there is, because I worked on a 2155B model I think, and that model did not have as NEARLY as many screws and parts as this. This video helped a ton because I have a 2015A or B model I had to put back together. The only problem was seeing which specific screws go where, cus there’s literally like 4-5 different Philips head screws with different lengths and tread patterns
Agree with the screws or at least show holes like you did but then a quick show of what screw. Other than that THANK YOU Tore down months ago to do paste, got busy and months later. Forgot how to put slim back together

Incredible video. Completely idiot proof. I bought a secondhand ps4 and it's in desperate need of some TLC but I've been too afraid to open it up. So thanks for the guide.
Can you send me a PDF or something of the organization of the screws? I took mine apart, and stupidly bunched the screws together. I know the difference between them, just don't know where they go.
You saved my life lol one of the two pieces fell off while I was cleaning my ps4 and I had no idea where to put it lol 😂 I got now though hopefully my ps4 well run smooth now
@@fighter_anas nah man, youve got a few silver machine screws just like the black ones. A few silver longer screws with a tip. And then a few longer then the previous.open a ps4
Removing the warranty sticker, no longer negates the warranty, as of 5/14/18, S.E.I realizes from time to time the stickers may get damaged or torn, possibly even removed simply by customers putting their consoles into a stereo cabinet or TV cabinets. So removable will no longer void, or otherwise negates the warranty. Sony update of warranty can be found and read and agreed to on their web-site.
What kind of alcohol substance should I avoid using as I dont have any isopropyl but my gf may have nail varnish remover or would hand sanitizer work or vodka Haha ? Please help someone 😂
Power and/or eject not working after re-assembly? Everything is designed with hyper-low tolerances and assembled by robots, so the power/eject buttons may not align correctly after you tear it apart to give it a cleaning or replace a disc drive. Inside the bottom outer casing for the ps4 slim there little structural supports connecting the bottom to the front, just use a razor or a hobby knife cut out the 2 nearest to the power/eject buttons and presto: perfectly aligned power and eject buttons. hope this helps even 1 person
@@ckkiller17 i had the same issue as you guys. Some of the places where screws are supposed to be located, were somehow replaced with black plastic round stubs by Sony I assume. I just peeled them off with a very small flat screw driver. Only then was I able to remove the cover which allows me to access the cooling module and fan. Hope this helps.

Great video brother, got a PS4 slim that I have to work on this week and I’m using this video for sure. By any chance do you have a video like this for the PS4 “Model CUH-1215A”?
Kinda wish you gave me more time to see what kind of screws go where like where black went and where the different sized silver ones went, this video helped but could've been a little more helpful with that
Yes, I can't find a proper screwplan on the internet, THAT would be most useful.
There's arrows marked were the screws go i just marked black ones with a sharpie
Pause it
Yeah pause it at the start g,all you gotta do
@user-vp5bt5bc1y pausing it isn't the issue the camera is pretty far from the consol so it's small and hard to keep track of, trust me I paused.
Had 1 screw leftover and couldn't figure it out watching in .25x what i missed lol but oh well still works, thanks for the tutorial vid
Me too. I figured it out it was the back screw of the power supply.
Yeah the video is just too fast in all of the moments I need it to be! And too slow in all the moments I don't care about!
Me: time take take a part a ps4 slim
Screw: why did you forget me
I removed the screws, now I don’t know which one is for which

@7:21 THANK YOU!!!!
LMAO THANK GOD ONLY ONE WASNT NECESSARY
that part saved me!
My slim is different for some reason but this still helped me a lot. Thanks 👍
You can ask for Playstation to repair it FOR 150, or you can watch this legend save the day!

What size is thickness of thermal pads, and why you don't replace them?
5:32 the worst part of this entire thing, I just can’t get it out
I use needle nose pliers; with teeth. It's important to use little force when gripping (but enough so that the pliers don't slip) and lightly rock the plug side to side while pulling. Don't pull too hard or you can yank the wires.

@7:20 in case anyone missed it
glad it's only 267 screws
So glad you highlighted those 2 little pieces that can fall out on the top. Had one of those 'why is it righty loosy, oh no' moments
Now which screws go where 🤔
This was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much!!
Wanted to know how to remove the ribbon plugs I didn’t want to ruin them. Watching this video helped a lot dude thanks
To fast putting the screws back in couldn’t see which size screw was the right screw for the right hole . That said great job many thanks
Slow done vid lol

Gooooood thank you 😊
2:40 does anyone know how to take it out cz I dont want to brake it
I struggled with the power supply, just be gentle and kinda pry gentle
Thanks, I have successfully replaced my Blu-Ray drive. Your disassembly and (just as important) assembly instructions were excellent! Thanks again
How much is a new Blue-ray drive?

When those 2 plates fell off I had a heart attack ! Watched this video and you saved my azs

I mean basically useless for some reason the one i got to repair is different especially the heatsink part is smaller
Agree with the screws or at least show holes like you did but then a quick show of what screw.

Thanks, my PS4 doesnt sound like its about to take flight anymore :)
3 years late but while helpful, there are 5 different types of silver screws in this. Would have been nice if you pointed out what type goes where
articular orb i think it is the same (i think)

articular orb oh, ok
I got about top and bottom shells in before backing tf out not wanting to fuck something up lol. I mean hey, the fan is clean now!...
Instructions not clear.. Little toe stuck in CPU fan...
Do you have to remove the hidden screw (behind the warranty sticker) in order to access the HDD?
very good this video, excellent 👍
Staying up taking my ps4 apart cause I spilt water on it and this music makes me wanna fall asleep forever
Thanks so much god bless
Best assembly video ever thank you so much

They still do put stickers on the back. I guess just to see if you opened it and for them to take a closer look if you messed with anything
Does anybody know a video pointing out where certain screws go i was a dumb ass and didnt pay close enough attention
Very helpful video. Thanks for making too!
thank to you ! i disconnect alimentation and i broke a pin ! your présentation watch me the way of connection !
At 4:54 / 14:45
what is that chip as i dont have this lol
My PS4 made u weird noise when I was starting it up again, is that normal?
So I can use the torx t8 on the black things on the top of the PS4 ????
What kind of alcohol substance should I avoid using as I dont have any isopropyl but my gf may have nail varnish remover or would hand sanitizer work or vodka Haha ? Please help someone 😂
I've decided to order some 70% isopropyl alcohol solution instead
All these old models because I don't have that wifi metal plate in the back of mine
What the fuck is a security torx??
Big thanks only one longest silver screw left 😊
POV: this was in your recommended
What are the ribbon cables for
Bro this is so strange but on my regular PS4's apu and on my PS4 slim's apu they have the thermal paste on the outside of the APU on BOTH SYSTEMS.
Power and/or eject not working after re-assembly?
Everything is designed with hyper-low tolerances and assembled by robots, so the power/eject buttons may not align correctly after you tear it apart to give it a cleaning or replace a disc drive.
Inside the bottom outer casing for the ps4 slim there little structural supports connecting the bottom to the front, just use a razor or a hobby knife cut out the 2 nearest to the power/eject buttons and presto: perfectly aligned power and eject buttons.
hope this helps even 1 person
since OP fast-forwarded through the entire thing and literally gave zero info or tips
There's a small metal clip that fell out but on top section
THIS IS HELPED ME SO MUCH, THANKYOU!❤
How important is it that u change the thermal paste
Wish I knew before hand that you had to use a paste for the Apu
I used mx5 Thermal paste. Is It good?
A small price to pay for no more *WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*
my wife cable didn’t go that long
What's the little screwdriver called?
6 yrs later bro saves my ps4 from water damage
bellissimo video ,mi ai salvato per assemblere la ps4 slim grazie

Thank you for your service
Thank you friend

😍😍😍😍
What is HDD?
Hard drive
Hard Drive Disc
thank you man, you saved me. this video is perfect.
Great!
lost my wifi antenna
How do I remove the black screws???
Jii Kae can someone answer this
I’m in the same boat, some of the red circled screws are black plastic stubs.
@@ckkiller17 i had the same issue as you guys.

Jonathan Gomes but how can you put it back together if you break the plastic screws?
If you mean the security-ish screws then I just used a small flathead screwdriver and just kind of worked it out. Find a size that just fits right in.
