  • Have you ever wondered "Why is my PS4 LOUD?" In this video, I will show you how to clean your PS4 and fix that LOUD FAN noise you hear! This is an EASY METHOD and can be done in minutes when you have the right tools!
    First you will need compressed air, a philips scrw driver and a 2mm flat hear or a TORX TR9 Security Scrwdriver! for the T9 scrws on the back of the PS4.
    When opening up your PS4 to fix your fan noise and to CLEAN your PLAYSTATION 4, remember that this will void any warranty you have. However, this will be a non issue for most. Cleaning your PS4 fan is a breeze.... literally with compressed air, you will be able to see the dust fly from the vents surrounding the fan. No need to go out and buy a PS4 cleaning kit, you can get most of the stuff you need at Walmart or a local store.
    Also, try cleaning the fan before you decide to replace the fan completely. Because after cleaning the PS4, it should run smoother and quicker! With LESS NOISE!
    Don't worry about your Ps4 making louse fan noise or loud fan during gameplay. CLEAN YOUR PS4 NOW! ...

      I doubt this lasted, ngl once it gets to this stage lads it's time to throw the PS4 away if the noise bothers you. No amount of cleaning lasts more than few weeks at this age, even the thermal paste only helps for a few months at best. If you live in a place with cold winters...it's a great way to heat up a small room btw, entertainment without needing the heating.

    I cleaned my Ps4 after 7 long years, It was so, fulfilling doing it. I cleaned it so well, even if i put me ear next the ps4, I still can't hear loud noises. My fan wasn't that dirty, but my power supply litreally had so much durt inside it was pointless to clean, it made no difference. But still if you spend a little bit if time, you learn of lot of things along the way, as you go. I do recommend getting the right screwdriver, because if you don't have it, those security screws ain't coming off.

      I never let it run when I'm not playing.
      I only download games when it's on.
      I hardly ever leave it even in rest mode. Full off.
      I Never put it on carpet.
      Never had any problems.
      If you take care of them they'll last.😊
      Years ago, My roommate had a ps4. He never turns it off. He says it's bad for the hard drive. The thing would constantly whine in agony.
      I finally convinced him to get an SSD. At least the whining stopped!
      But, it collects so much more dust over time.
      I'm sure his is long dead now.

    When cleaning the fan remember to get the Q-tips way down between the fan blades and spin the fan to clean the inside of the housing. I thought I had removed most of the dust with the compressed air and fan blades. Then I proceeded to go through about 30+ more Q-tips with the insane amount of dust trapped in the inside perimeter of the fan housing.

    When putting my power supply back in, the fit felt a little tight. The console would not turn on. Turns out, there are 2 silver prongs sticking up next to the power supply connector. Mine were slightly bent and both inserting into the same slot. Be sure they have the proper gap between them and are not bent. Once I adjusted the gap, the power supply inserted smoothly and the console is working normally.
    Hopefully this helps someone.

      I recently took my PS4 to a repair shop, they put in a faster HDD (7200 rpms). They said the original Korean drive is not that good and dies after a certain time. He also cleaned it, I just got a new power cord for it. I have it sitting on my glass shelf but it's not getting the best airflow. So now I brought it down and I'm hoping it powers on and stabilizes. I've been having random start up and shut down issues. Now the fan shoots up, it beeps twice and it powers off.

    When I re-assembled my ps4, it did not turn on again. Only the blue light blinked for a short time. How I fixed it: After I removed the power supply, the two silverish metal pins that go straight up were bent towards one another, so that they went into the same hole of the power supply. They need to be separate, as you see in the video and go into different holes of the power supply, so I bent them apart again. May this help someone who runs into the same problem. Happy gaming.

    It's FICKEN amazing. I haven't opened my PS4 since it was bought in around 2015. I peeled off those void stickers and got to work as you instructed and my god. The dust. There was freaking dust caked up like a bunch of gunk in LAYERS and then the roaches... Oh those dead dehydrated roaches. After a disgusting time trying not to breathe this brown dust and roach carcasses, a little compressed air here and there, I muted my TV and MY GOD. There is no sound. My PS4 is making r2-D2 noises as if it's able to compute at it's normal speed again, I'm so happy to be able to hear myself think with my PS4 on and not have this jet airplane noise just whirring away in the background. I cannot wait to start playing siege right now after a good old joint. Thank you good sir I'm freaking ecstatic.

    Very helpful! The only bit i would add is that (for myself) I had some resistance putting the power supply back. I didn't realize it till I got it out but there's 2 metal prongs that need to plug back in to the power supply. I had to use gentle but firm pressure to click that corner back into place (most stressful moment of this whole process omg). All appears to be working fine, and hopefully my sparkly clean fan can help clear up some of the issues I've been having with it lately. 🤞🏻

  • @alternativefandotcom
    @alternativefandotcom 4 роки тому +198

    This worked like a charm! Thanks man!
    Just an FYI though: My PlayStation had two pins connecting the power supply to the motherboard which made it a bit tricky to take it out and put it back in, so be careful not to bend those pins! The pins are placed next to the screw on the bottom left corner. All you have to do to get the power supply out is pretty much as in the video, but as soon as the top left corner is free you have to pull the bottom left corner straight up. When putting the power supply back in it doesn't slide easily back in. You have put it back in at an angle and GENTLY push it down on the bottom left corner. Once again - be careful not to bend those pins!

    I just bought a used ps4… tan like a jet engine and the horror I saw when I opened the back… the entire fan was just COVERED in dust as well as the entire power supply. This was a much needed video. Thank you.

    Great guide, man! My fan has been loud as heck for like a year, and I fixed it up in like 15 minutes with this video!

    No one is going to question why this guy is wearing leather gloves to disassemble a PS4??

      @Phantasmogorica 4 роки тому +38

      So oils on his hands don't get into the internal wiring. Any rubber glove would work as well.

      Hands have natural oils that aren't good for electronics -_- The same reason why your controller gets greasy over time.

    this was extremely helpful. i’ve had my ps4 since 2013 as well and this was my first time cleaning it. i thought the video was very easy to follow and it made a good project for quarantine. my ps4 use to sound like a jet engine but now it can barely be heard. thank you for the help!!

      @Jah-Marii 4 роки тому

      Ezzz ツ you could buy any compressed air can and it will be alright👍🏽, and let your ps4 dry off from the compressed air , don’t use the air can too much or it will start shooting frost. Long story short take your time and you’ll be fine

    • @jaredgrabot439
      @jaredgrabot439 4 роки тому

      Ezzz ツ I just went to a target by my house and bought the canned air in the electronic section. It’s label said it was designed for dusting electronic devices so that’s what I got. Wasn’t too expensive it was like 10$ for a double pack
