I have the same problem .. and who cares if the USB works at that time .. check the voltage in the USB ports ..

They will all be disconnected together,,.. I have not yet understood what is the cause of this problem.. Maybe you can find out

@BasicComputerRepair Год назад

I like it when my RU-vid techs that I watch for tips admit they don't know what is wrong. It happens to everyone. Thanks for the honesty and you did everything to try and find the problem. I am also pretty sure your guessing is correct, probably heat expansion did a number on one or more components. Thanks for the great content!

@TheCod3r Год назад

Thanks bud, yeah sometimes it's OK to just realize you're probably not going to figure it out and move on. We don't know everything and those who pretend they do are just lying to themselves. I do think heat played a part in this though :)

I noticed when you was initially going through the voltages, you put the probes on the 2v area, but your meter read 0v, yet you carried on to the next area. Just wondering if you saw the 2v that we didn't onscreen.

I just fixed the hdmi on one, when put back together, it had the long pulsing blod. Took it back apart and checked the LM, seemed fine but took a swab to it anyway. Put back together and it was fine. Didn't see anything wrong or different so not sure what the issue was..

@mobilewandrepairsltd Год назад

Hey! I too have a repair business and had the same issue come in. I managed to get the playstation on and working. Sounds silly but what I did was redo the liquid metal and put some pressure on the device, (whilst open) on the bit where the soc chip not sure why but this actually worked (the heat sink attached) I did had to have the playstation flat not standing though. not sure if its any help but worked for me :)

@craftymulligar Год назад

That what I would do if I had a ps5. I would put a thermistor sensor microcontroller with lcd. When it gets hot it would shutdown the rgb led would turn red to prevent over heat. Even my ac did that shut down if go to hot from dust builup.

@ReubenDrums Год назад

I literally have the same issue as this board! Long BLOD and 6 out of 8 mosfets really hot with the SSD’s not lighting up at all. I’ll keep you updated if I find a fix. If I haven’t updated it, I haven’t found one 🤣

@justinc9991 Год назад

I have like 0 experience on ps… just the random videos on youtube… but i would say: the two missing phases, could they be on only for apu boosting when it’s under heavy load? As for the ssd, i would say to inspect the apu area for liquid metal spills …

@TheCod3r Год назад

It's hard to say but I'll look into it for a revisit I think. I did check the apu for spills, I just kept it out of the video because of time limits

@antagonizerr Год назад

@@TheCod3r True but couldn't a short in the usb halt startup? It just seems odd it started up AFTER it was removed. I dunno, seemed like a path you could follow...or not. lol

@TheCod3r Год назад

@@antagonizerr yeah definitely, it's always possible that ports can be shorted. The reason I don't really check them on the PS5 is because if you do have a short on the USB ports on the PS5, they're connected to the APU directly (or rather the data lines are) so if you do get a short chances are it would put 5v into the APU and fry it. Every time I've seen a dead APU on these it doesn't even attempt to boot. But that said it is an avenue I could potentially explore :)

Hey mate my sons ps5 turns off while he plays games . It works fine while watching Netflix or utube. When it turns off during a game the only way to get it to turn back on is to unplug it and start it back up again. Have you ever seen this problem. He got it on the ps5 release date 2 years ago .

One question I have is if the USB plugins receive power or not on that board. I have a long blue pulsing light and I don’t have usb power to the front or back plugs. I know the long light can be anything but wondered if a bad Southbridge would cause this but only if the system won’t turn on.
