- What's up everybody?! Does your PS4 have a loud fan? Does it get so loud that you question if there's something actually wrong with it? Don't worry, it's more than likely dirty. In this video, I show you how I disassemble and clean my disgusting PS4. This is the 1215 model and there aren't very many videos out there covering this. In this video, I take it slow so you can follow along and do this yourself. Most, if not all, parts and tools can be found at any of your local stores.

After 7 years I finally decided to clean my ps4

Did it help
finally it doesn’t sound like an airplane when i play cod jeez
im tryna clean it rn. does it really sound that new?
@@mmxgamingx1354 yes . Trust me!
@@brandon_04sandoval14 I mean all is believable
This is the exact reason why I’m trying to clean it now
@@mmxgamingx1354yeah it’s so much better I’m loading gta online rn 😂
awesome, i have this model and couldn't find any videos to help me. thanks! :D now my ps4 is finally clean from dust
Same, all the other videos were from a different model
@@caitlinkennedy1855 yeah it has a plastic thing on it
For anyone wonder I haven't cleaned my ps4 since 2015 (that's when I got it) and today was the first time I cleaned it, now there's no noise, fans are spinning quietly, and it's as good as new! Id rate the difficulty of this a 1.5 out of 5 only because people seem to have an issue with the prying (which I did too for like 30 seconds), what I did was use a prying tool but I know a lot of people don't have that so I reused a flathead screwdriver and it worked just as well. It's a bit scary cause you think something is going to break but there were no issues whatsoever.
I got a question When I try to put the back cover back on the PS4, the silver thing next to the green component in the bottom is sticking out and preventing me from closing it ? What do I do? 9:50
Lol this happend to me as well
Me too lol it literally fell in the floor
Literally just doing this
Mine still makes noise on warzone☹️ but I got rid of a ton of dust
I want to clean my PS4, but I’m soo fucking scared to open it...my brain is like “Open it, and you won’t be able to put it back”😂😂
Me too😅😅
That’s honestly how I feel I’d just have a professional do it tbh
Same
Samee
I’m the same way, I want to clean it, but at the same time, I don’t want to damage it
6:13 If you're having difficulties removing the bottom case panel, I found it quite easy if you start at the back and work towards the front (on both sides), instead of trying to start from the middle, as shown in this tutorial.
No my junk really not trying to come off its getting on my nerves
Edit: Nvm i got it 😂
I am going to try
Yeah much easier if you remove the 2 screws on the sides of th ebottom cover. Th e ones under the stickers
@@jacquesscherman2022 wait are there screws on both sides at the back
@@mutsiiis653 yes. One t8 screw at the top portion of the back of the system, and one at the bottom
Bro I’ve had it for 7 years and had no idea you could take the top left part off
I found it out when it fell and it popped off...😅😂
bruh same
At least you knew about it 2 years ago, I only learned about it today 🤦🏼
You posted this 3yrs ago, but im just now using it to guide me, and the PS4 sounds waaaaaaay better. It had been 8 years since I cleaned it lol TY
Why the heck am I so scared to do this?
I feel like I might mess smth up
Dude samee
FR
The scariest part is taking all the covers of... Took me about 10min each and 90% of the time you think it will break
But it will be worth it. Your ps4 will thank you
And opening it the first time is somehow so much harder then the second or third
Im scared of getting zapped
Thank you so much for being genuinely the best guide out there. PS4 went from sounding like a broken hairdryer to running smooth as silk even on big games. Bless you.
Thank you , just cleaned my ps4 after finding it incredibly slow and loud. This worked perfectly :)
This really helped me eliminate the noise coming from my PS4. Even with a little bit of dust that I can’t clean out currently because I don’t have air spray (ordering soon), the PS4 sounds a lot more quiet when running games and I’m really happy.
This was the most helpful video I found to do this. Mission successful, thank you my friend. The inside was honestly not as dirty as I was expecting, but it felt good to clean it after 4 years anyway.
Thank you sir for this video! The quality and production of the video is highly underrated :D
Commenting on an old video. This helped me SO MUCH. My PS4 was literally almost as loud as a vacuum cleaner. opened it up (some air vents were clogged turns out) cleaned it up carefully, put it back together. Boom quiet, purring like a kitten running perfect.
So Thanks a TON.
Please tell me what you did differently I clean mine pulled out a lot of dust, but mine still sound the same or louder
@@Cbtv33 On mine, the fan itself was pretty clear of dust, but the air vents had a TON clogging them up so the fan was getting no airflow.
Thank you so much I can't say it enough after 7 years being able to use my console like in its glory days feels amazing brings back lots of memories your tutorial was very informative and very easy to follow. 😃
You did an amazing job on this walk through for this version of the PS4. You’re right a lot of the videos on UA-cam show the original PS4 being cleaned and not this matte version. Made it a breeze to clean my PS4.
When I try to put the back cover back on the PS4, the silver thing next to the green component I’m the bottom is sticking out and preventing me from closing it ? What do I do? 9:50
This is by far the best guide on UA-cam! Simple and really easy to follow. Only difficult part was separating the back casing, a very thin screwdriver used carefully does the trick.
Holy you saved my life man lol
I didn’t have that separator thingy
Or some sort of razor blade, as I did.
Thank you very much for this. I tried to follow so many different videos and guides and this one was by far the most straight forward with a clear line to what you were doing.
I don't care how loud it gets as long as my games don't crash ever 5 minutes
I agree
Me too
A loud PlayStation gets annoying after a while
So you are willing to have a fan break and then have overheating issues guys. Because that's what's going to happen if you don't keep it clean.
Ummm u do know it crashes probably cause it’s not clean. I cleaned mine 3 years ago and HUGE improvement. It’s not just the sound it’s overheating that’s why it’s crashes.
Thank you for posting this, it was one of the only vids I could find for this model. Super helpful :)
I cant hear my ps4 even when playing cod its like it's new
My ps4 used to crash 90% of the time on a fortnite or 2k game and now it's silent
Hey bro I really appreciate you makin this vid with this model 😂 my PS4 has been sounding like a jet for YEARS and I finally cleaned it out and now when I was running dragon ball fighterz thing was absolutely silent thanks man❤️
As you said, all the other videos weren't this model, so this was INCREDIBLY helpful! Thank you so much! Hopefully it's quiter now!
You're the only one I've seen explaining enough the removal of the base cover thing, that was the most difficult part in all this for me, thank you so much!
Thank you so much dude. This step by step guide is absolutely amazing! And honestly, I thought cleaning my PS4 might help with the noise only so slightly, but my god, it's like a brand new console, I can't even hear it anymore!
This video has been an amazing find! My PS4 is the quietest it has been in years. Thank you for taking the time to help us all! 💯🏆
Just got a 1st gen PS4 for super cheap, took it apart for its first interior cleaning and was amazed how well kept it was, obviously from a non smoke home and not an overload of dust on the cooling fan either, pretty impressive really! Quiet as a mouse too, quicker too with the 1TB SSD upgrade. The original 500GB drive was clicking/beeping when I went to diagnos it on a PC.
Thanks so much for this! I had been looking awhile for the right cleaning video. Every one I came across had a different model. I finally managed to clean my PS4 after 5 years! Thanks again! 😁
When I try to put the back cover back on the PS4, the silver thing next to the green component I’m the bottom is sticking out and preventing me from closing it ? What do I do? 9:50
Dude this was so sick thanks so much, i was looking for this model becuase all other one's were different to mine. done everything you said, and the ps4 went from a jet to being very quiet. Used to sound like a jet on Ghost of Tsushima but now its relatively quiet asf. Thanks a lot you are a life saver.
I appreciate the video my man. I, too, had 7 years of built up dust and as you can imagine, mine looked an awful lot like yours did. But now it's as clean as the day I bought it. Thanks again.
i just wanted to thank you, this is the only tutorial that actually explained everything, and i was lucky enough to have the same model
If your scared to open because you don’t want to mess it up don’t worry bro you got this 🥱 it’s Worth it
MAJOR like for this one, bro. No one is gonna readily figure out where to pry for that second cover. You are awesome!
My son's ps4 was actually louder then a hair dryer on max. Used your tutorial as guide to clean it. After maybe spending 10 mins following your super easy, Step by step instructions; for my ps4 opened up.
Now, it's barely a whisper coming out of that thing. Thanks, your guide much appreciated!
Thank you so much for this video!! A lot of the other videos are of the older model, so when I sat down to clean it and saw the screws in different places I was very confused, but then I came across your video and it was perfect! My ps4 runs so much quieter now I can’t thank you enough!
This was very thorough and detailed.
Very good instructions. Thanks!
5:05 mine doesn’t pop off easily, I feel like I might have overlooked a screw but I removed the same as you in the video
Mine did the same you just gotta be patient and there isn’t really anything you can break when separating it
2 years later n this vid's stil helping people. including me. thanks for uploading this back then :D
Thank you so much it is literally been years since I’ve done this best video out there
Ngl the first 2 jokes cracked me up😂😂
Awesome video man! I actually switched to PC over a year ago but I really wanted to play the Cold War Beta on stream! My PS4 sounded like an AC130 taking off while playing any game... even digital. So your video made it super easy and very simple to follow! Awesome video man!
great video man, helped me a lot. one of the best and simplest videos out there for this kind of stuff
Thanks so much. The video was perfect and was a huge help for me. My PS4 is much quieter now. I was definitely nervous taking the bottom panel off because it took so much force. Was afraid to break the plastic.
Thanks a lot, I was looking for a video with this model and didn't even know how it was called. Also mind for the people that don't have that special tool to remove the back you can use a card, I advise to use 2 cards, if you pull it a little with your nails and same time put the card in you can use two cards to get it all off, didn't take me that long.
This vlog just saved my ps4. My wife was playing it and it just stopped. Looked this up and followed it and boom, with an update good as new so far. Thank you for this vlog. Peace
I actually forgot how quite the ps4 operates, was sounding 10x as loud before watching your video and clearing out some dust. Thanks for the easy to understand instructions sensei
Finally, my playstation doesn't sound like a Toyota stuck in the same gear
Honda Civic*** lol
Wow, thanks for the tutorial, my PS4 sounded like it was taking off every time it was used. Now it doesn't make any noise! Huge difference and very easy to do. Goes together twice as fast too, lol.
For real! For how much effort it took to get the covers off they went back on like a dream
Speed demon you are the best because I’ve been looking all over for this model of PlayStation that I got and everybody else’s was just so different and you went through a perfectly thank you man
Great tutorial. I bought a little tool kit from Amazon, found your video (as the one I was sent a link to was for the wrong console) and off I went.
I laughed when you showed how dirty yours was and you said "that's about as bad as it gets" 🤣🤣🤣 I was like "hold ma controller".... mine was about 4 times worse!!! Never seen so much dust in my life!!! 😱 But thanks to you my ps4 is like new, working perfectly and as quiet as the day I unboxed it.
Thank you so much!!! 🙌🏻
Good guide, and really worth doing, surprised how much difference it made to performance.
When you said you had the ps4 for 7 years I was like how it hasn't been out that long then I thought about it and the ps4 came out in 2013 I feel old
Mannn, best tutorial on youtube, by far.. pause it where needed. Playstation is very clean again, thanks!!
So glad I watched this video instead of the other one I was watching. I didn't realize at first that I have a newer ps4 model. The other video had me taking it all apart differently, which was causing me to force it in a bad way. They are definitely not all the same. This video is for the newer models that have less screws in the back.
good video; one thing to note is static electricity can kill components quickly. typically electronic savvy folks use alcohol and q-tips to clean areas beyond the air can (as canned air is treated as anti static) Alcohol provides very little residue during the cleanup and swabbing with a 150 pack of q-tips is affordable. THE SWIFFER CAN BE A BAD TOOL! Not many are made for anti static and electrical usage. Understand it takes less than 5v of electrical energy to fry an IC (integrated circuit) or chip as most know them. Majority run on less then a volt of DC power and more run on mV. Applaud you for the detail of your video.
just remember not to use a swifer because it can carry static and fuck ur system up
Then what do I use
@@slashinthatcashstc4769 compressed air
@@jimbobjimmyjim If I just use regular Q-tips and cotton swabs is it alright ?
@@leem.5917 for certain things but compressed air really does the trick
@@slashinthatcashstc4769 qtips with alcohol and compressed air
Followed your video step by step man! Thank you! Cleaned it for the first time after idk 8 years maybe
amazing tutorial , i just cleaned it , your steps were super precise. Thank you !
Your instructions were top notch. Thank you. Still noisy but not as much
Maybe try replacing the thermal paste it helps with the heat
I've had my PS4 for almost 8 years and never had any issues with it until a few weeks ago it started overheating. I just opened it up for the first time and no wonder it's overheating and sounding like a jet engine. There's so much dust inside even the hard drive is dirty. Right now my PS4 is getting a much needed cleaning.
This was the only video that had a PS4 similar to my brothers. I saw other videos but they had more screws so I was confused. I was able to follow this video from beginning to end!
Dude you're my go-to video every time I have to do this and take my PlayStation apart I watch your video
I genuinely can’t get the top cover off
Peak
P e a k
Same
Yeah that one and the bottom cover suck soooooo much... 90% of the time I thought that I might break the covers
Mind dropped Nd the top game off
Thank you very much for this. I felt like I needed to add some extra time of life to my ps4 since they announced the ps5. Also the other videos showing how to clean this model of ps4 did not show how to remove the bottom cover of the ps4 which was starting to become a nightmare. This video showed me how to remove the bottom cover though thankfully.
Thank u so much every other video, was a different generation, I appreciate it man
Just did this one after 5 years oh having the same PS4. It's amazing now and no meatgrinder sound anymore. Thanks a lot for this video. ;)
Thx men that really helped me 👏 my ps4 was almost flying when I was going to turn it on now it like a new one
5 years of dust and sounding like a jet taking off...gone and quiet as a cat
I think you mean mouse
No cuz cats are pretty quiet, but does it really matter?
Thanks for the video, My kids Playstation sounded like it was going to blow up before i watched this video. Ordered the proper screwdrivers and have just cleaned it. Holy crap, the amount of dust inside was unreal but now its like brand new and now he can't hear the fan at all. Going to clean mine and the daughters now, Thanks again for the video
YOU ARE THE MAN.
No more noise after 7 years
Perfect guide, best guide I've seen in fact. I was so nervous to open up my PS4 to clean it, but thankfully I was able to so easily thanks to this. Now my PS4 is as quiet as ever.
Did you had to put in new thermal paste?
@@KM-lc6hj Well no, but to be honest I didn't even think to check whether or not I needed thermal paste. It is at least running just fine now though.
This was an amazing guide, easy to follow. My PS4 is a lot quieter than it was. It used to go mental playing days gone but not as bad now.
The fan is so clean it can do what it was designed for.
Thanks dude 😁
Kinda off topic but what screwdriver did you use to open up the power source? Cuz torx8 doesn't fit for me?
Well this was a fantastic video! I just cleaned my PS4 I've had for a long time and man was it filled with dust. Now it sounds like we'll it doesn't make noise like an all electric vehicle. My PS4 is back to almost new and optimum power! Thank you again
Want to thank you so much for your efforts and information. My granddaughter received our son's PS4 when he bought a PS5 and not knowing much about these things we assumed the jet or howling sound was part of the game sounds. Our granddaughter didn't really care?? In any event after listening to it for several nights from her room I did some research and came up with your instructional video. Again, our thanks! Now that I have done it once it won't be hard to make it a part of caring for the machine.
Thanks for the guide my ps is stealthy silent now compared to the jet engine it was😂
6:00 if you're having trouble with this, on my ps4 there were a couple more screws hidden behind stickers on the back that I had to get first before I could pry this part of the case off
Hey do you have any advice for getting the PSU off, I think I have the same model as you and I’m having a really hard time with that step, it’s the thing he does at 8:27, any advice
You can't imagine how helpful this was to me!!! Thank you very much man!!!!!
Really appreciate this video man. Major help. ❤️
this is the best cleaning guide and there's very little views and no comments i mean im the first comment. Dude props to you.
This makes me worried to even open my own to look in the insides
I just opened mine and it was covered in dust
Second time using this video, can explain how appreciative I am. Very simple and easy guide, especially when i have this model which well not many other videos exists on.
Legend!!! I watched other vids but weren't same model as mine, this was perfect!!
Man why is my PS4 so hard to disassemble, it's like Sony intentionally super glued my ps. My finger tips are sweaty and I'm worried that I might break something
Thank you. My PS4 went from jet engine to electric car.
Finally cleaned my PS4 (this model) awhile ago and it was so dirty and dusty 🤢
It's running so much better now, the fan sounds heather and it doesn't get as warm as it used to.
Thanks for the video dude 👍
Thank you so much! I finally had the balls to open it up and clean it and your guide helped immensely!
TO ANYONE WHO WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE BOTTOM COVER:
i couldn't get it open either for like 35 minutes then i realized my model (CUH 115A) is a bit different and had two more sticker seals on the bottom that had screws under, these stickers were harder to get off and i needed to scrape at them with tweezers, got those screws out and was able to pop the bottom cover off in 10 seconds
Thank you
I know this was awhile ago and I hope you get back to me but I can’t get the PSU part off, that’s the part at 8:27! How did you do it. I think I have the same model as you and I’m having a hard time getting it off?
@@OceanBlue72 there were two black stickers blending in with the console that covered up two more screws. The stickers were tough to find and difficult to get off, I had to scrape at the with a screwdriver to get the stickers off. Then I undid the screws underneath those stickers and the bottom cover popped off very easily
@@tuckh5110TY SO MUCH ❤
Bro thank you so much I was bout to scream
dawg I accidentally broke my shit into pieces cuz i got mad
Huge huge thank you for this video ! Couldn’t believe it - my PS4 is so quiet now and before I couldn’t hear myself think👍
Massive thanks as this video was perfect to help with me. Unfortunately I didnt have a air compressor so dry mouth blow, hoover/dust buster and use of a toothbrush, earbud and a interdental brush and now just pures smooth now instead of roaring like a jet engine. So happy and thrilled 🤩
nice tutorial but my ps4 power socket the left side is completely stuck! I can't get it out, the right side comes us but I don't want to damage the prong, tried everything
It's easy: you have to pull it up, you have to give a little tug, not too hard, otherwise it comes off;)
Appreciated g, just cleaned my ps4 and it’s totally quiet now
That only last for a couple of months that thing eats dust
Do i have to unscrew it?
@@galaxypaper969 Yeah, but you need a special screw, it’s called a TorX8
Bro you're the best,thanks to you I finally took the chance to clean my PS4,I hesitated at first cause i was afraid but in the end everything was fine and my ps from once was an airplane now it silent like a shinobi, thank you
Thank you so much! Every video that popped up was for newer ps4 yours came accosss and was easy to follow
My top just doesn’t come off, I think it’s stuck
Same
I did, and the back started to crack a bit
@@RyKizan this guys a idiot there are 4 screws not 2 other 2 are on the corners behind a black fiberglass sticker
@@Sosamikey92 oh really! I’ve been just letting it collect dust because I’m too scared to break it. I’ll check that out
@@RyKizan did it work?
This really did help even though I didn't have most of the tools I still got it done
What did u use
How?
Video was a huge help mate!! Thanks for the content 👍
Took forever to find the right ps4 cleaning video so thank you keeping this in my saved videos for the future
For anyone having trouble at 9:52, try flipping the plastic cover upside down and have the PS4 "sit" inside it.
Dude... Thank you 🤣🤣🤣
@@SlappyMcSlappster no problem!
