Top 5 PS4 Problems With Solutions

- Top 5 PS4 Problems:
1) HDMI port problems. The first few models of PS4 had a huge problem with bad HDMI ports. The PS4 Slim and PS4 PRO don't have as much of a problem with it but it still does happen.
2) Turns On Then Back Off/Blue Light of Death. This is a common problem with all PS4's...even the newer models have this problem.
3) Overheating. Most consoles that have this problem either have a faulty fan or they need to be cleaned. Many times cleaning and replacing the thermal paste will fix this issue.
4) Disc Drive Problems. Many consoles have had problems with the rollers popping out of place when the disc is pulled out quickly. They also have had a lot of problems with the laser lens not reading discs.
5) Cockroaches. This is a common problem, especially with consoles from the southern US. PS4's are perfect cockroach houses. Bug infested consoles are not covered under warranty so Sony will not fix them. The best thing to do is to keep them from getting in in the first place.

I’m incredibly surprised to hear one of the most common problems isn’t with the touch sensitive buttons on the original PS4 that cause it to turn itself on/off and eject the disc sporadically, considering how many people experience this
Had a PC that would reboot itself randomly, spent months trying to isolate the problem, unplugged the touch reset button, problem solved.
Probably because you can’t really fix those issues. You just have to be careful with them…
Hi i have a ps4 white light problem and need advice.
So i traded a faulty xbox one original for a supposed faulty ps4 original from a person that fixes consoles that wanted the Xbox for spares.
So on the day i got home with the ps4 i used my ps3 cables to power it on and it miraculously powered on which surprised me as the controller was connected properly using the usb cable.
But i saw the screen flash black then back to the home screen which i didn't know what is was then it did it once more and was displaying perfectly.
After about 5 mins of waiting for it too show some errors or switching off because i did not expect it to work i plugged in my usb speakers to the other usb port on the front while the controller was plugged in.
That was when the screen went black instantly. I didn't know what happened and pressed the eject button and a copy of GTA 5 came out which means the console was still powered on.
When i plug the controller and speakers in on my ps3 super slim at the same time is says too many devices drawing power something like that.
So i think it drew too much power on the ps4 and caused a wlod on the ps4.
Im trying to do a home repair with minimal tools and if you could give me some idea of what the usb ports could have shorted eg a transistor or fuses or something.
It still powers on and everything but that was the defining factor i think that contributed to the white light of death.
Any recommendations would help as ive watched a lot of UA-cam videos and most are the ic chip or some transistor .
Its a original ps4 with wlod
Just wanna say thank you so much man with your help I fully repaired two ps 4 consoles this morning from disk drive to board , your tutorial covered literally everything I need to know and needed to do , thank you so much for all the input .

Hey, this is a very informative video! I appreciate having this compilation of common problems with these consoles so that in case anything does happen I can be sure to be prepared, or in the very least informed. I’m familiar with most of these problems, but the fixes are very useful to keep in mind! However, I do have a question that may or may not be completely unrelated to any of the issues mentioned here:
I have a FAT model PS4 (it’s a limited edition though so I believe it does have some slight improvements like power use in comparison to the launch models). Sometimes when I’m playing it, I may hear this quiet little “beep” coming from within the system. It’s not nearly as loud as the powering off or overheating beep, but it can be heard if you’re paying attention. I am not sure if it occurs in random increments or not, but it is somewhat concerning to me whenever I do hear it. I can’t recall if this was always something that happened, as the first couple of years I’ve had it have been a little blurry, but I do in fact believe this has been occurring for the past 2 years or so. Is this a sign of some unknown issue or is it the machinery within the console just doing it’s normal stuff whilst running? Thanks.
Wow! Thanks so much for taking time to share this information with us! Much appreciated! ✌🏾
You're welcome!
@@Tronicsfix I know I’m late but thank you and my ps4 still makes this rattling sound
@@Tronicsfixneed a quick tip with my ps4 to save all my videos on my hard drive please bud im desperate
My Ps4 has always been plugged into a power strip and I've been having the blue light problem as well. Glad there is still a possibility for me to fix my ps4 without getting a hardware fix/ps4 replacement.
I really enjoy watching your repair and educational videos! Your delicate work doesn't go unnoticed.. If I ever need work on mine I would love for you to help me out with the repair.
honestly give it a go yourself, follow a tutorial, be delicate and organise the parts you won't go wrong. done a ps3, ps4 and ps4 pro myself upgrading and replacing parts and installing new thermal paste.
And now i'm really paranoid that my ps4 will break any moment ! Thanks i guess
Ha, ha...you're welcome! Lots and lots of PS4's never have problems. These are just the most common repairs I see at my repair shop.
TronicsFix I have 4 ps4's. One for me and one for each kid. Mine is the one with physical buttons, the other three have capacitive buttons and one has the eject whenever the hell it feels like problem. I have removed the rubber foot and constantly clean it are there any other ways to fix that?
+adonian Open your ps4 and place a piece of sticky tape over the eject sensor, I also had this issue with the first ps4 I bought. Then to eject a disk you have to use your controller through the menu.
Should have bought a Wii U like any sane gamer! Good luck legally playing all of Nintendo's greats, suckers! Power is always trumped by FEATURES! Suck it, Sony!
I would love to have a rear USB port on my PS4. I have the launch edition I don't know if the pro or any of the other ones have a rear USB?
I love that T-Shirt lol. Can you imagine how huge that repair manual would be
Ha, ha..that would be cool to see!
Yes, I bought a few ps4s that were broken and every one had a bad hdmi port, even had one that look like it had been repaired but the soldering was really bad. I never had a problem with my own personal day1 ps4 though and the hdmi has been plugged in/out 1000s of times

Nice video. My PS4 has been the most reliable Playstation I’ve ever owned since my OG Playstation, not PSOne, but just plain old Playstation ala 1996. PS2 had disc read problems, so I bought a slim, and PS3 I had repaired four times, and bought another.
PS4 has been rock solid so far. I use it everyday, between 2-10 hours a day as its our entertainment center basically. Plays blurays, youtube, Hulu, HBOgo, Netflix, Amazon, etc.
It's amazing this is 5years ago. My slim shuts of after 1-2 seconds. Took it apart 2-3 years ago due to the disk drive dust cover fell off into the drive. Used your videos to help me take it apart etc. Worked for about 6-9 months and then the blue light of death.
I'll attempt the washer trick, thanks for the great informative videos!
The solder balls cracking problem is common to all flip chips / BGA mountings (i.e. Xbox/PS2 onwards, strikingly prominent in the seventh generation with Xbox 360 and PS3) due to the redistribution of metals in the solder alloy and even on the copper pads themselves, that get sort of "eaten away" by solder to an extent. This thing is well known since the 90s in scientific articles, before even the PS2 came to be. Flip chips are basically time bombs likely to fail sooner or later IF serious heat sinking countermeasures are not taken. Redistribution of metal is faster at high temperatures. Board warping and solder ball cracking kick in earlier if the console isn't cooled down properly; this sort of design flaws contribute to the overall behaviour of the solder.
Reballing isn't guaranteed to fix the problem; flip chips have tiny solder balls between the chip itself (that shiny rectangle on the smaller organic board) and the organic board, which is soldered directly on the motherboard. If those tiny solder balls fail, there ain't any "reballing" that can fix it, only a complete CPU/GPU/APU replacement with a brand new one.
The real problem is crappy lead-free solder.
Replacing the crappy fake lead-free solder with real leaded solder balls makes for proper reballing repairs as long as the chip itself as well as the actual pads on the board and the chip are not damaged.
Some of the chips on the older consoles had RAM chips BGA-mounted on the processor chip base itself, and more often than not those would get bad as well; the fix was to de-lid the chip and attempt to reball those, but at that point the effort and time spent was only barely worth it to save the one chip - and all because of inferior solder, and the environmentalist crazies who made it happen.
I have this „unknown disk“ error, i just have to tap three times on the top while PS4 starts reading disc.
Could be crap stopping the laser move to read the disc, tapping it probably helps the laser dislodge itself so it can move to read the disc. so try cleaning inside the drive mate.
Great video. Very informative, however, I was hoping they would talk about freezing
Thanks man. Very useful, and no nonsense.
Good I found this video. Thank you. Do they ever test their products
"there's bugs in the system" lol, and I thought bugs in software were bad.
So that means we have both buggy games due to unfinished games being released and bugs in the ps4 itself cause they make a great bug hotel >
@Irfan Spirtovic they get up to all sorts of antics they do :D
@@amyhoard1222 they do not make a great bug hotel they make an expensive nightmare after cocky's take out the power supply and the power supply's pcb is rarely fit for repair when they are done
Actually that's where that term originated. Computers used to be mechanical. A bug in your program would literally be a bug in your program. When computers became electrical and more complex the term stuck with it.
🤣😂
Very useful information. Thanks.
You're welcome!
Nice T-Shirt 👍😁
Very informative video as always, no idea how I haven't watched it until now. I must say your videos have come a long way since 👍
Great video! I've already had the 1) Hdmi and 4) Dvd drive problems, now I should clean my 2015 ps4 to avoid the 3) Overheat problem

"There's bugs in the system..." Keep in mind, a new patch release doesn't resolve the problem... LMFAO
Mário Palma failure is not an option, it comes bundled with the software...

Hi,
I have a problem with my PS4. I searched my issue but never found anything similar.
I bought my PS4 2 months after it launched.
It was running smoothly until very recently. It started it kick me out of my games, not any game, games with high computing powers (that's what I noticed) such as MGSV, Mass Effect, The last of us, and Bllodborne.
some other games, I play them for hours and it never kicked me out once.
I cleaned it many times, and opened it and cleaned the heat sink without any improvements.
any advice on this?
Great content thanks

Thanks! Great video. Are these fixes something that I would be able to do at home with minimal experience? Or must bring to a shop? I would like to start learning how to do my own electronic repair/upgrades
Great info!!
When trying to fix blue light of death does the safe mode "fix" actually work?
Not on my PS4. My PS4 restarts and restarts again in safe mode. Doesn’t exit safe mode while turn on.
As most support specialists know, doing a complete format and repartition of a drive will most likely fix any kind of curroption on a disk drive. But the problem is how do you recover the lost data during this procedure when the PS4 drive is not recognizable to windows. How do you salvage the drive from a GPT protected partition that does not allow you to use any disk checking tools or any sort of diagnostics. That is the big 1 million dollar question that needs to be answered and I been searching and searching for hrs trying to find a damn resolution to this problem. Recovering the data > Reformated the hardrive > reinstalling the drive with the new firmware update > and finally, restoring all your data to the new formatted drive. Anyone have any solutations at all with how to perform these tasks.
Agreed, but it's probably going to take some serious reverse engineering workarounds to figure that out.
If people could do it easily, Sony would lose out on all the money they make because people tragically lost a year worth of save data, leading them to buy PS+ for the save data cloud backups for the future. Make it easy enough for the average person to just pop it into their computer and recover the data, they lose out on all but the laziest of offline gamers' money.
Bro Very good info
Great video!!! Any video coming up for a bit older tech, like PS3 problems?
When I turn my ps4 on everything goes fine for just like 8-10 minutes and suddenly some glitched dots come on the screen (on any monitor) and it suddenly turns off.
I went to a repairing shop and i got to know that the ps4 processor needs to be fixed others said that the motherboard has a problem.

Great video thank you will try that.
thanks for the advice amzing work keep it up👌
Old video but still gonna comment.
The powerstrip issue could be due to a voltage drop.
The longer the power line to the device is, the less voltage remains due to the resistance in the extended line.
Now if it is a really cheap powerstrip, it could have really thin lines, which have a higher resistance.
Or if you are far from the house / power net connection you also might have a voltage drop which adds to the power strip voltage drop.
One could try to run the console on a regulated power supply and drop the voltage a bit.
The US usually has 110V right? Maybe check how much you can lower it till you get that error.
Up voted just for the shirt... I want one.
thank for Your Videos Man, Thank your time.
Great video! TYSM!
I have over 10,000 hours on my ps4 I got it within a month of release, never had a single issue.
Most Ps4's don't have any issues.
I've heard that if you have the ps4 running in stand mode, the solder will slip. unless you have a stand with a base fan cooling the system.
Bryan Smith I've had my ps4 like that for 3 weeks now and no problem.
i got mine a week after release and i forget to turn it off all the time, leaving it on for days sometimes even, and i have yet to have any problems with my PS4 at all. i probably got well past 10,000 hours myself. lol
I have a ps4 slim. I hope its more reliable than ps3 fat
Guys can someone help. My ps4 pro was recently cleaned but when the fan get louder its starts to make this crackling sound. I'm scared
Steve is the best person to go to when it comes to electrical devices i'd trust him 100% if i left any of mine with him for a repair or maybe a good clean and i'd pay him whatever he wants for the job.
After watching so many videos and experience that you have, I am writing to you With all due respect and love from India🙏.
My PS4 just broke down 2 days back..it all started with a freeze in the screen while playing battlefield 4 campaign mode. Then wen I switched on the PS4, it said " checking system storage" and then it switched off again. After that they asked to reinstall the 7.55 update in USB and reboot.i also did that...since then I have been keeping on doing the same.
Sometimes after initialization, system does turn on and wen I try loading games from cd or downloading apps, I have noticed that it takes alot of time to load a game from the CD which is very unusual.
In a while it lags, system freezes or turns black automatically.
Finally system asks for the 7.55 update in a USB again.
With all hope I am writing to you and praying you to provide a solution for my above issue..Thanks bhaiya( Back in India it means elder brother)🙏
TronicsFix my Ps4 Pro runs extremely loud, especially after a few hours of gameplay and sometimes even after just a few minutes after starting a bigger or more complicated game like Skyrim or No Mans Sky. It will even kick me from the game with an error code and then the entire system gets really laggy even just when scrolling through games in my library or navigating through the settings menus. I do not own any digital games and my 850-something gb hardive is near full of digital games. Could this performance issue be caused by storage overload or something? I mean to say, does the storage capacity effect the systems performance?
I did notice a slowdown especially in the menus when my system storage was very full. It's like a computer, it will take longer to index all the stuff you have. After I cleaned up (I didn't even have enough to create a save lol), the system became more stable and fluid.
Seems to me most common problem is the constant disc eject tones.
Thank you so much, its really help sir..
Thanks bro 👍
What about your controller randomly cutting out and requiring a restart to get it to connect again?
Usual scenario: I pause and have to go do something. Controller cuts out, I come back and press ps4 button but controller doesn't cut back on. The only way I can get it to reconnect is by powering off the console all the way. Controller reset doesn't work, connecting with usb wire doesn't work and using two other working controllers (one just purchased two weeks ago) doesn't work. The only info I can find online is it may be the Bluetooth antenna. Could you help a brotha out?
charge it and keep it plug in
Same problem, thought i was the only one. Tried with multiple controllers but doesen’t work
when i plug the HDMI cable to the monitor and i touch the end side of the cable i get zapped from it why does it do that
Because there is voltage going through the cable.

You do a very good job keep it up and I hope you get very very good
Thank u so much for this
Damn roaches. Always knocking out the power supply AND thinking it's funny. Nice T-shirt. I also own a space shuttle and the damn roaches knocked the power supply out of that too. Can I borrow your Haynes manual so I can get it up and running again?

What should i do if one of the hdmi port pins is bent
Unfortunately, the HDMI port will need to be replaced.
TronicsFix my hdmi ports keeps skippibg
I had the first problem and luckily it wasn't anything too complicated, i just had to switch my ps4 HDMI cable with my Xbox 360 HDMI cable, both still work
Thanks for the post I was able to fix my ps4 pro by bending chip heat sink bracket just a little bit and thermal grease good as new !
I was using a vga to hdmi convertor on my ps4 to use with my old monitor,coverter uses a 5 v adaptor but i accidentally plugged in 9v one,after that my PlayStation was being detacted on my tv as giving a signal but after a while it had no signal at all, could it be that its just the hdmi port itself and not the ic chip?
It's unlikely that it's the port.
My ps4 act up every time I try to turn it on thank you
Even today saving lives..the prongs on the hdmi port were folded up to the back many thx🙏🙏
I guess that shows ps4's should be taken care of carefully,my mom would be thinking the ps4 is overheating because it feels hot,and I just sold a ps4 that didnt display on screen,very informative video👍
I never had a problem with my second hand ps3. Had it for 4 years and it was allready old then .
Had my ps4 for a year and allready it has hdmi port problems and controller problems.
11:10 I misheard it as "there are some real kamikazes of overheating"...
shoulda been top 4 issues XD good video one repair tech to another,
I have just refurbished my first PS4 slim this evening. Bought it super cheap off eBay and fixed it for my own use and I never transferred the circuit board off the blueray drive to the new drive and its working fine. No errors or issues. Replaced the HDD with an SSD, replaced the blueray drive and the fan and put new thermal paste on the cpu. The amount of dust inside it was unreal, it wasn't dust bunnies so much as dust walls. And it stank of cigarette smoke. Had a thorough cleansing with isopropyl alcohol .
I placed my Ps4 inside a pantyhose, because positive results from my pc. No dust, no bugs, no overheat.
Interesting idea.
Kiryu Mekagojira I wanna see a picture of that I’m interested
That's actually a really good idea!!! Thank you.
What's a pantyhose
Lmao
I’ve always wondered if ps4 has had more overheating issues than xbox one because more people bought ps4 or because of design 🤔
True asf my experience with over heat only is you just need to clean the fan and heat sink
Can I just add, that FREAKIN SHIRT IS BANGER!!!
Someone gave me a PS4 that was broken and by what they told me I figured it was the fan I took it apart after watching a UA-cam video on how to do it and it was full I'm dead cockroaches and dander I cleaned it out I changed the fan and I now have a working PS4.

My PS4 slim turns off when I'm playing injustice 2, in others games it runs just fine, what should I do ? Sorry for the English, im brasilian.
Unfortunately there's just no way for me to know what's wrong with it without being able to test it.
That sounds like an overheating issue. Injustice 2 is known for making the PS4 run hot.
