the psu has 4 pin. Vsb (4.8v), gnd, acdc_stby, acin_det. To my understanding on a good psu when ac is plugged in to the psu, Vsb should be around 4.8v and the acin_det would be 3.5v to 4.5v even without plugging to ps4. You can short either Vsb or acin_det to acdc_stby to turn the 12v on. Both these are essential steps to identify a good psu. If this is good then the next step would be to check the power button module. And if that is also ok, then most likely the southbridge area is the cause of the problem.
thanks for the video helped my out of the poo when i thought i had fried my power supply but it is ok so dave £50 on a new one thanks a million people like you are what makes youtube worth while cheers
Thanks for this video brother. I just checked mines and my power supply has no voltage at all lol imma just order a new one. I did all rhe test you did and my power supply is just dead. Thanks once again.
So I take it that the PS relies on the Mobo to "maintain" the short in order to continue to make +12VDC? I have the situation you illustrate here; +12VDC as long as the pins are shorted. If the PS4 won't turn on, and the PS is good, then the Mobo is bad?
So I obviously can’t do any of this because of lack of equipment but I figured I could just explain my issue. I bought a ps4 slim almost 4 years ago. Everything was stock and I played it for many months. Before a full year I heard a loud pop and everything turned off. I didn’t know what to do but I didn’t want to throw it away cause one of my games was in there. A few years passed, I got the disc out and decided to try and fix it. I figured it was the battery supply so I switched it out and it started working again. A week or two later the exact same pop noise happened. I’m starting to think it’s my motherboard that’s blowing up the battery supplies but I’m no expert
You have roaches in your system they touch 2 points and that’s the popping noise clean your area around your ps4 make sure everything is clean take your console apart if you know what your doing and clean it out and make sure their isn’t roaches living In your system if your uncomfortable doing that then get some raid and spray it in a bag not to where it’s soaked but just in the bag good enought put your ps4 in it and make a tight knot so the fumes can circulate and kills any roaches inside leave it for Atleast 2 days!!!
Hi mate when you make next part of this ps4 slim I have exactly same problem I check power rails and showing well but is still dead no loght beeps nothing
I did exactly what you staed, if your meter reads 12 volts while shorting TRIGGER and the 4volts. AND i got 0.00 that prob concludes my power supply is not working right. But it does show 12 volt when i put the leads in the the PSU and turn the PS4 button on. This is anothe rmodel but the same concept applies.
Old video but if you see this can you give an update as to the problem? I'm having the same issue and am at an impasse as the PSU tests good, I've replaced the PMIC next to Southbridge but I'm still not getting 3.3v anywhere. No sign of life at all. Thanks.
I'm not getting any voltage off the connector plugged into the motherboard. And also no voltage from the power supply test, would that indicate that the power supply is bad?
If you're ps4 is turning on but randomly turning off by itself like mine is, that could an indication of a worn/damage/short in power cord or worn out extension cord. Since ps4 uses alot of voltage watts. Sometimes it could a faulty or old hard drive. If you're not getting any power consumption it could consist of a damage power cord, faulty hard drive or built debris in your fan. Try these methods. See where the problem is occurring from your ps4. Sometimes, it's a simple fix. Hope this was informative.
@@whoRUcallinpsycho i tested the power chord and it seems to have voltage. I'm thinking that it could either just be the power supply or the connector to the mother board is bad.

Hello my power supply reads 11.88 volts is it good or bad? My ps4 is stuck in safe mode and upon initializing ps4 turns off and turns on in safe mod, if anyone has an idea its really appreciate
hye. I've tested the connecter on the board using my multimeter and I've found out that I only got the 5V on the fourth pin only. I got no reading on the first pin. What does that mean? Is the cable the one that's making the problem or the connecter on the board? thanks in advance edit: almost forgot to mention. I also got nothing on that 12V test
@@gugugaga4533 nope. didn't fix it yet. I actually bought a replacement and guess what? the new PSU actually got no reading at all on anywhere. just like your problem I guess. now I don't know what to do
Thanks. Can a power supply provide a good value for the first minutes or so and then suddenly start being faulty for some reason? I'm asking that coz my PS4 (12xx model) is starting normally and then always after 5 minutes the screen scrambles then it stops working. From that point on I have to unplug and restart again but won't work till it's cools off. It's a very clean PS4 as I did the whole cleaning and Thermal past application by myself two days ago. Thanks 🙏
i've got a similar issue to this, i turned ps4 on the other day and was going through the menus and then had a scrambled screen and it powered off. Now it won't power back on. i keep trying it periodically and it has come on a couple of times in like 3 days but only for 15/20 secs and then powers off again and wont do anything

so what was the problem with that board??
What if the eject button beeps but no power? Could that still be the power supply?

When is the next part of the video?
yes i wanted to see the complete fix not half of it.
Same.I need to know how you fix the motherboard before i waste more money on another ps4...
Having the same exact problem in the video. How do we fix the motherboard to make the power work?
Great video! I’m getting 3.7 instead of 5 and 9.3 instead of 12. Replace power supply unit?
Yeah
Thanks brother thank you for sharing the video..👍🏻
What kind of power supply do you need I see some 160 240 and other numbers on the names so idk what to get
I got no voltage when i check the pins at the beginning can anyone let my know why that may be
It needs a voltgrvtobdwitch it probably short it to gnd
hi thank you this is a great video. when i tested mine the same way i got just over 14v on my meter. any advice?

Could you tell me the name of these nice security glows?
Thank you now i know my ps4 is not power on but the power supply is good can you teach us here how to fix on the board too.
The meter is going to be set on DC volt to check voltage on ps4
YES, its a dc circuit
I'm not getting any voltage off the connector plugged into the motherboard. And also no voltage from the power supply test, would that indicate that the power supply is bad?
Sometimes it could be a short in your plug going to an extension cord or another standard household outlet.
If you're ps4 is turning on but randomly turning off by itself like mine is, that could an indication of a worn/damage/short in power cord or worn out extension cord.

How do you fix the motherboard if all that works
You can't without specialized equipment.

thanks man
Please help. If my ps4 only beep once and shows blue light just for a fraction of a second. Is there any chance that my power supply is faulty?

Yes but you will need to have 12v and also a 5v line which is 12-15amps to be safe.
