Well I can talk from personal experience the manual eject slot works and doesn’t I tightened it and it work for mine but not my brothers ps4 so it depends on the issue
My ps4 turned on in the middle of the night and just keept ejecting the disc, like the motors that take the disc in and out were constantly on all night
My ps4 sometimes (rarely) ejects the disc, and does the ejecting noise and doesn’t accept the disc again. I just restart the ps and all is fine but I’m scared that this problem will come back to bug me later
Once my ps4 ejects a disc, it keeps making the eject noise. Is something wrong with my ps4 or will these solutions solve it? I've done these methods but the problem still occurs
@@riot6508 good advice, i agree with the fact that u should buy your games digitally, however, once ur done, ur stuck with that game. You cant trade it in or get a refund, so there is one disadvantage to purchasing digitally
Thank you! Was ready for two days of playing over Christmas and it started acting up in the morning. Your video has allowed me to hide from people and enjoy my gaming. You are a gift from aliens!
I had to buy a new set of screwdrivers for this operation I did what you said with the tape on the sensor and I make sure I use the right screwdriver to help screw back those specific screws and it's been weeks and I never had any eject problem with the disc. buddy thank you so much you saved me from a $500 mistake to a $450 mistake God bless you and thank you. I'm still using that same PS4 thank you again man.
I've been having this issue for about 2 years now, just coping with it cause I figured my PS4 was just getting old or something. Didn't think much of it, but it was annoying as hell. Tried this today out of curiosity and so far it's been working like a charm. I put two small pieces o a somewhat thick electrical tape, just to make sure. Thank you so much man, appreciate it.
I was really panicking, owner of a ps4 for 5 years now and I absolutely shit myself. But I’m so grateful you showed me how to fix it. Thank you so much
Follow up: I do not have the tools to do the tape trick, so I stood it up on its side. At first it did not work and was still ejecting every hour so I flipped it on its other side and I haven't had any issues since the day I watched this video. So for some you might need to flip it on a specific side. Thank you so much! Save me a lot of $.
I used one of the plastic pieces of tape that were over my screws and put it on that rectangle and it worked lol 😂 this is like the first time in my life I’ve ever fixed an electronic myself lol thanks bro. It’s so annoying to have your disc eject in the middle of game play lol
Watched first 5 mins of video, unplugged my PS4, flipped it over and saw that rubber part was basically pushing eject button. Pulled it out and restarted PS4.....all good so far. Thanks for video!
@@syphon_9892 sad thing is I had been dealing with this issue for MONTHS.....just thought my PS4 was too old (I bought on release day) and that I needed a new one. this video was a god send!
Performed the tape eject button fix in less than 20 minutes and, suffice it to say, it's flawless now! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for uploading!!!
thanks man, the screwed used to work for me before but it completely stop working and my ps4 would eject every few seconds. This ended up the only method that worked for me, really appreciate the video!
Thank you so much for your help with this video.... I basically just took the metal piece attached to the cover completely off!!!! No tape or anything else just the little silver piece... Thanks again!!!
Looks like that rubber strip next to the eject button is indeed the cause for that annoying ejecting of a disc. I've been owning a launch model for over five years now, and the issue was occurring more often lately. I just cut off the tip next to the eject button so it can't make contact anymore, and pushed it back in the slot. Fingers crossed that was the problem, but it seems very likely. Thanks a lot in advance, i salute you sir!
Thanks. My problem was the little rubber piece on the bottom. By the eject button. I would press on the bottom part and it was enough to make it eject. If you don't want to pull the little strip of plastic off, they sell these small rubber feet at most stores and you can stick them on the bottom. It's high enough so there isn't any pressure on that plastic piece. I wouldn't have bothered looking at the small piece of plastic if it wasn't for this vid. Thanks again, hope everyone has an easy fix as well
So glad I found this video. I was going to pay a repair guy something like 75 bucks to fix it. After I told him what was wrong, he was all to happy to fix my problem.
LoL.... Wont fix it trying to eject disc that Are not in there... and I never had A disc in it... just rib out the disc drive power.. just as good A solution.. works when u only do digital games :-)
Keep in mind though because this is also relevant to playstation5 if you have a warranty for your console and controller if you open up either the controller or the game system it makes your warranty invalid which means you cannot send back your console to Sony if you have the warranty that allows you to do so to get a replacement if something internal happens to your console. Simply you should not open your system for any reason unless you're trying to clean it out
Been haveing problems with this for months and thought I would have to buy a new ps4. Taking off the rubber pc on the bottom of ps4 is what worked for me. Great advise. Saved me so much money⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Dude I came straight to the comments thanks for this!!!!! I got so scared because this wasn't gonna be my first time I would have had to spend money on my PS4 but thank you so much dude❤
In case you don't have the Torx for Security Screw, just use your regular Torx, they pin in the middle of the screw is easily breakable and then you can use the regular Torx normally!
Thank you so much for your help. We remove the rubber piece from the under side of the eject button, and your very first suggestion fixed our issue. Thank you so much for posting all of the solutions that you found!
The screw is there, it's really hard to see with my model being a black plastic screw that practically hidden in low light. What I found is using a flashlight and moving the flashlight side to side (slowly) the small screw will appear slightly, looks to be black plastic but it does show up under certain lighting conditions. At the side of the HDD cage there's an slot opening to the left of the cage if you are facing the PS4 from the front, go below the metal cage along the left side of the PS4, you'll see some black venting gills. There's an upper set that all seem to be the same size, then there's a lower set, that is where you want to focus. Note: the lower vent gills are different sizes, The screw on mine is located between the two black fat gills, below and right between those two fat vent gills is a small slot. You need a very narrow phillip screwdriver to come from the top and reach the screw. The screw has a little give like spring and feels like it has a slight mechanical tension when turning clockwise which is suggested in turning. Mine never actually tightened so much, although it was a lot looser before I began turning it for about a minute of revolutions. Good Luck!
Saved me from throwing my Ps4 out the window, my Ps4 kept ejecting disc while there was no disc inserted, also beeping like crazy every time I would turn the system on. It would also start beeping in the middle of the freaking night while system is OFF ! Also no disc is inserted when this happens and would never eject a disc while playing. But pulling that rubber piece did work Thanks a bunch !
First off I wanna say thank you soo much for the help. I dealt with this few weeks ago to watch your video here to figure out the ways to fix it and I went with the 3rd method by taking it apart and by putting a small bit of tape on the ejecting piece and ever sense it haven't done it again so I'm back here to thank you again bro God bless you man.🙏🏾
Thanks. Removing the rubber piece worked for me. I unplugged the console, even then as i moved the rubber, the ps4 keeps beeping. Removing it completely fixed the issue. By the way my console is from the first generation of ps4s that has touch bottoms. I thinks removing the rubber underneath the eject bottom solved my late night ps4 hunted turn on problem. Thanks again.
@@paultasker7788 during these 2 month, although with this change, random ejecting happened to me a few times, I vacuume cleaned the the ps4, especially that hole. And the problem solved after the cleaning, thus, even the dust built up causes some kind of static. So cleaning regularly is an easy way.
@@mws4884 yea man it actually does. I still have mine like that and it has never ejected a disc sence i did it. I used electrical tape for it and its still holding strong too this day. Just like the guy said though youll just have to eject your disc manually with the option button when your hovering over the game you want out.
The first solution with the rubber thing on the bottom actually worked for me lol it was somehow making the ps4 constantly eject discs, thanks for the solution!
The screw is a Manuel ejection screw that will at times come in screwed due to the vibrations the disc causes in the system when it is spinning and this will cause it to spit your disk out, it’s happened so many times to me and every time I rescrew it back in and it fixes it
SOLUTIONS 1) 1:56 Rubber 2) 3:22 Stand it up (I lay it on 2 bars ) WORKS 3) 4:08 Sony Solution - Screw 4) 6:00 Hard Rest PS4 5) WARRANTY WILL BE VOID 7:04 A) Dismantle Eject Button 10:25 B) After removing PS4 cover
Daniel Baptiste, they're adhesive stickers. I peeled them off with a pair of tweezers. Any sharp object will do the trick. But MAKE SURE you want to do this because peeling these stickers will void your warranty.
My old one also did this...Tape worked thanks... Sony is really to blame for this and should fix it for free but good luck on that. They never take blame for anything kind of like Xbox and the red ring of death they got away with murder..
Bruh I have a short fuse and when I'm trying to play bo4 on my ps4 and I'm trying to get the numbers skin and it keeps ejecting and I walk over to my ps4 and I have the erg to pick up my ps4 and throw it across the room

ABOUT THE PS4 EJECT ERROR with the first PS4 model. When I noticed this happening with my PS4 I couldn't believe it, that a disc at random may eject out and I though to myself so this is the next error problem with consoles. Is there any possible chance that this eject error was made intentionally by a member of Sony to sell more newer model consoles that way? If so that would be criminal. If not at all possible, sometimes newer tech is not worth it. All those problems with wireless controllers and now the eject error. I think it would be better if Sony brought back wired controllers and press the button to open the lid to place the disc on tray consoles. I never had a problem with them except for that dang analogue stick permanently bending forward.
Well i tried putting my ps4 on its side as you mentioned and it beeped right after. Took the rubber foot out and so far so good. If that doesn't work I'll pull it apart and try the tape method. Great video. Thank you
Mine constantly did this. Would freak me out by randomly turning on and ejecting disks. I removed the rubber piece completely and it never has happened again. Rubber was making contact with the switch.
Recently my PS4 [the launch version] ejected a disc abruptly and continued making the ejection noise after the disc ejected. The sound was sporadic meaning you could hear the mechanism turning on and off while the console was running. I restarted it and it continued making the noise. It's out of warranty so I'm thinking about getting the slim version.
I have a vertical stand for my PS4, ripped out the rubber stopper on the bottom, clean the thing every month or so, I've unplugged it, I've reset the damn thing, NOTHING WORKS!!!!! I hate waking up in the middle of the night just to reset the damn thing!!!
Try this first. Take an old tooth brush and clean the eject button in front and underneath. Mine kept ejecting and I tried everything short of disabling the button. I found that after scrubbing out the dust next to the button then powering it off and starting it back up again it has not done it again. It has been stable for weeks now. If all else fails take 4 rubber washers and put them in the corners underneath the playstation. This will lift it a bit further from the surface and prevent it from interacting with the surface underneath. Same effect as having it stand upright.
I know this is a 6 year old video. But I just recently started having random ejections from mine. Not when I'm in a game, but after Turning it on or restarting. Your ps4 looks to be the same model as mine and I can confirm there is a screw there. It was through a redit post and different video that I found the screw solution and it worked for me. The issue is its a black on black hard to see and reach location so definitely use a flashlight. It should be 4.5-5 inches along the side vents inside one of the vent holes.
If you hold a flashlight @ a 45* angle you will see the Phillips head screw - I did 1 & 1/2 turns & problem was solved - after I took the entire PS4 apart checked the rollers & everything else - also did you try bending the metal arm that touches the board where it hits eject eject
Sony does this (in my opinion) to make us feel like something I'd wrong so we have to pay money in the PlayStation store to play games as they are expensive
This may not be answered but when you put whatever on the area that blocks the disc tray is there any caution we should take like does it overheat or anything?
I don't know if it's the 8.0 update but I was playing a wrestling game 2K18 WWE and I was playing like my eighth match in a row and while it was loading I didn't touch the PSN button or anything I have my hands on the joysticks and it closed the game close the application and then ejected the disc but for some reason kept beeping twice like there was a disc in there it was trying to eject does anybody else have this problem? Thanks
What I can say to this is that some games will always cause this e.g.. The Witcher 3 while others don't e.g. most others. Sometimes it would even do it when I had it positioned horizontally with non-disc games which is just absurd. Putting it vertical has solved it unless I want to play The Witcher 3 which I frustratingly do want! I should have just got an Xbox One, but instead I had to buy one as well because I was so fed up with the issue!

It’s also due to the fact on how much you maintenance your console and wear and tear.

The way I solved this is by buying digital games

I put a bottle cap under my ps4 and it tilts slightly upward but it fixed the ejection problem.

If not at all possible, sometimes newer tech is not worth it. All those problems with wireless controllers and now the eject error. I think it would be better if Sony brought back wired controllers and press the button to open the lid to place the disc on tray consoles. I never had a problem with them except for that dang analogue stick permanently bending forward.
Mine did that randomly eject only because dust and junk was inside. Once I cleaned it out it has stopped.
Well i tried putting my ps4 on its side as you mentioned and it beeped right after. Took the rubber foot out and so far so good. If that doesn't work I'll pull it apart and try the tape method. Great video. Thank you
Yo thanks so much man. This was soooo helpful. Subbed 👍🏼👍🏼
Where did you get your tools from?
This was very helpful even if ur warranty has expired already
Mine constantly did this. Would freak me out by randomly turning on and ejecting disks. I removed the rubber piece completely and it never has happened again. Rubber was making contact with the switch.
Recently my PS4 [the launch version] ejected a disc abruptly and continued making the ejection noise after the disc ejected. The sound was sporadic meaning you could hear the mechanism turning on and off while the console was running. I restarted it and it continued making the noise. It's out of warranty so I'm thinking about getting the slim version.
Wait so I can still use disks I just need to eject through options on the application?
Thanks, man I tried so much methods but this is the only one that worked :):)
I have a vertical stand for my PS4, ripped out the rubber stopper on the bottom, clean the thing every month or so, I've unplugged it, I've reset the damn thing, NOTHING WORKS!!!!! I hate waking up in the middle of the night just to reset the damn thing!!!
Try this first. Take an old tooth brush and clean the eject button in front and underneath. Mine kept ejecting and I tried everything short of disabling the button. I found that after scrubbing out the dust next to the button then powering it off and starting it back up again it has not done it again. It has been stable for weeks now. If all else fails take 4 rubber washers and put them in the corners underneath the playstation. This will lift it a bit further from the surface and prevent it from interacting with the surface underneath. Same effect as having it stand upright.
Crazy after all the videos, I found the one to fix it. Thank you kind sir
And this is why the internet is good BREXIT
I know this is a 6 year old video. But I just recently started having random ejections from mine. Not when I'm in a game, but after Turning it on or restarting. Your ps4 looks to be the same model as mine and I can confirm there is a screw there. It was through a redit post and different video that I found the screw solution and it worked for me.
The issue is its a black on black hard to see and reach location so definitely use a flashlight. It should be 4.5-5 inches along the side vents inside one of the vent holes.
If you hold a flashlight @ a 45* angle you will see the Phillips head screw - I did 1 & 1/2 turns & problem was solved - after I took the entire PS4 apart checked the rollers & everything else - also did you try bending the metal arm that touches the board where it hits eject eject
Thanks It was the 1st step i took that rubber peice off and it worked u deserve a sub
Sony does this (in my opinion) to make us feel like something I'd wrong so we have to pay money in the PlayStation store to play games as they are expensive
I took a smal flat screw drivier and gently push it where that rubber piece was (you should see a small metal thingy), fixed it for me.
Everytime im sleeping on night like q at 2 AM the disc ejects and the noise keeps going for like 10 minutes
same here pisses me off
This may not be answered but when you put whatever on the area that blocks the disc tray is there any caution we should take like does it overheat or anything?
I took my cover off and tried to tighten my screw, and it just kept turning never got tight.😕
The last one worked for me. Thanks bro!
I just went ahead and sold it and got a slim...but good vid man 👍
What type are the screw drivers?
I don't know if it's the 8.0 update but I was playing a wrestling game 2K18 WWE and I was playing like my eighth match in a row and while it was loading I didn't touch the PSN button or anything I have my hands on the joysticks and it closed the game close the application and then ejected the disc but for some reason kept beeping twice like there was a disc in there it was trying to eject does anybody else have this problem? Thanks
What I can say to this is that some games will always cause this e.g.. The Witcher 3 while others don't e.g. most others. Sometimes it would even do it when I had it positioned horizontally with non-disc games which is just absurd. Putting it vertical has solved it unless I want to play The Witcher 3 which I frustratingly do want! I should have just got an Xbox One, but instead I had to buy one as well because I was so fed up with the issue!
