  • I bought this PS5 for $100 from someone who had originally bought it from eBay. The seller said that it won’t turn on at all, so we’re going to have to get inside of this PS5 and see what’s going on. Let’s see if I can get it working again!

  • @xxSepelxx
    @xxSepelxx Місяць тому +2

    What I wondered in the part where you resolder the fan-connector: Couldn't you maybe take the white part (fan socket), pull out the pins from the bottom and reinsert them 180° rotated, such that the same pins stick out the top instead of the bottom? I could imagine that this could potentially make this repair a lot easier, because you do not have to mount the connector weirdly, but just a little lower than normally.
