@Angrypcgamenerd 9 лет назад

It's great to see that you gave out a neat video of the PS4 console that turns on and right back off again. I never experienced that problem before..... but my friend's PS4 was having the problem the other day that he must have dropped his console from a 5 ft height. Normally the PS4 would have a 50/50 chance of either checking on safe mode or that the unit would fail to boot. It turns out that his console turned on and that the beam of blue light went through the PS4 (and then it suddenly disappears). I would probably guess that the PS4 would have something to deal with a faulty power supply.

@Tronicsfix 9 лет назад

+MrPcGameNerd It's highly unlikely that it's a power supply issue. Too many people are out buying power supplies for these when that's not the problem. Your's is most likely a bad connection between the APU and motherboard or a bad APU itself. www.tronicsfix.com/store/p25/PS4_Turns_On_Then_Back_Off_Fix.html

@Angrypcgamenerd 9 лет назад

+TronicsFix I don't believe that I have a bad connection between the APU and motherboard or a bad APU itself. I live in Canada.... so it wouldn't be possible to have my PS4 sent in. Plus I already bought the accidental warranty for 2 years (from the Playstation Store) so I should be able to rest easy. Plus it depends on how people treat their consoles properly, how they store it in room temperature, etc. Some people would take their consoles on the go and that it would have a possible chance that it will fall at a possible 5 ft from the ground (which would have a 50/50 chance of turning on). If it was at 15 ft, it would not survive (unlike an X-box One where it could survive).

@Tronicsfix 9 лет назад

For anyone else who is reading these comments, please remember to buy with extreme caution when you are looking to buy broken consoles off of Ebay. At the very least buy only the ones that have the warranty stickers in tact. -Full Disclosure: We actually sell some of our broken consoles on Ebay but we say exactly what has been done to them so any potential buyers know exactly the risk they are taking.

@ronhyatt145 4 года назад

I took a chance and picked up a PS4 cheap on Ebay that was not working. Got it hooked up to see what it was doing and thanks to this video its just a bad power supply. Used a friends PS4 power supply to test and it booted right up without any problems. So glad I got lucky and it was the fixable kind. Ordered a new power supply and just waiting for it to arrive so I get get everything up and running. Thanks again for this great video.

@noormuhammadmalik2482 4 года назад

I just love that t-shirt! It's so simple and amazing! :D

@Tronicsfix 9 лет назад

Ernest Franz - This is most likely a problem with faulty connections between the APU and the motherboard. This is common with consoles that have been dropped or fall. It's not likely a power supply problem. If it's still under warranty they may fix it for you but I'm not sure.

@kosmossee4596 9 лет назад

TronicsFix me thing with the ps3 and tey still has problem on the ps4 now..guess when ps4 slim come out that fix the problem..sony should have some sort of warranty fix for their customers...u spend hundres in a console and it gets ad due to hardware not the customer problem but the company sony...sometimes u feel like buying a xbxo one tronics fix dudde i was so happy when geogot the tech genuis hacker hack ps3 back in the day...playstion 3 failed so much it doesn't matter if u the have warranty they kept on failing..yea i know xbxo 360 fail too but still ps3 failed more....and now ps4 failing too the same power supply gpu problem.... i assume xbox one has problems bet there are some videos on youtube but it seem microsoft does ore to fix the problem or improve since xbox 360

@Tronicsfix 9 лет назад

kosmo seedo It's hard to compare the problem with the PS4 vs Xbox One. Sony has sold 19 million PS4's and Microsoft has sold $11 million Xbox One's (these are the latest numbers I've found) so there are lots more PS4's out there which means that there will naturally be more PS4's with problems. That being said I've seen a lot of PS4's with pattern faults (turning on then back off, HDMI ports, etc) whereas the Xbox One doesn't have as many of those.

@kosmossee4596 9 лет назад

TronicsFix in a sense u right but am sayin withthe ps3 and xbox 360 they had their red light of death blue light of death etc...they problem with redlod of death it ti was not the power supply it was the bad solder joiny s on the processor...they were to use lead solder it had a higher melting poi nt..not to mention pos3 and xbox had the laser went on on the disk drive they would not play games.........sony should have done better to address those problems withthe ps4 better cooling use lead solder joints on the processor...like u siad ps4 has more problems compare to xbox one..guess microsft improve on its design flaws....it dont matter how many ps4 out there...they had the same problem since ps3 n ow to ps4...ppl invest too much money to go bad like that....

@ezekielarmstrong9905 9 лет назад

TronicsFix my ps4 clicks turns on for 2 seconds then there is a low beep inside the system then clicks again and turns off. What is this?

@Tronicsfix 9 лет назад

Ezekiel Armstrong It's most likely not the power supply. You probably have a problem with a bad connection on the APU or a bad APU.

@tarasutherland8688 8 лет назад

I have had my PS4 for almost 2 years. It turns on for a moment the fan starts to kick on then it immediately shuts its self off. If I hold the button attempting to see if it will enter safe mode, it will not, it will just shut off.

@onua1522 5 лет назад

For those with Blue Light Of Death: If it doesn't power on or goes on for a moment (but doesn't turn on the fan) and then dies you most likely have a power supply issue. If your light pulses you can try the added washer fix on the diamond shape clamp (youtube it) and maybe apply new thermal paste. If it turns on and off by itself but doesn't respond when you hit power, then it could be bad power supply or faulty solder joint on the chip. These worked for me most of the time but when they don't then chances are the chip needs to reballed properly. Good luck everyone! Oh and make sure to clean your console from dust with a soft bristle toothbrush (dollar store or wherever) or compressed air can. Not truly necessary but definitely helps prolong the console's life.

Hi TronicsFix. I need some information. I hope this reaches you. I ve got the 1st generation PS4. The issue it switches on for 1 sec with the blue light on and switches off after directly just with 1 click. Just like the video. AND it does not respond to power on command after that. Unless i unplug the power cord and put it back on, it does the same thing. What would you advise? should i try to change the power supply. Your help will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Steve, thank you for this video. My PS4 is acting just like the one you showed with the bad power supply. What I am finding strange is that, I could still fully power on and use my PS4 if I removed the HDMI cable. This worked a few times and now it just act like you showed in the video, regardless of the HDMI cable being plugged in or not. From your experience, is the PS4 power supply easily repairable (for someone with experience in electronics, of course)?

@Tronicsfix 8 лет назад

+denisclc No, the power supply is not easily repairable.

I had this issue today after installing destiny 2 and playing it a few days.

Dont know if it will last as I've never had this problem but it did work and it's very easy to do doesn't hurt to try if you haven't already.

@Tronicsfix 9 лет назад

Kenneth Edwards - If it doesn't do anything at all when you try to turn it on (not lights, no noise, etc.) then it's likely that your power supply is bad. If you live in an area with cockroaches then they likely caused your power supply to go bad.

@JustAnotherVibe 4 года назад

Guys, if you cleaned your PS4 and have a problem getting the PS4 to turn on or it turns on then off, you may have put the power supply back in wrong. Make sure the two long metal pieces are straight and not bent to where it reaches the power brick. Not placing it back in correctly also may make it hard to put the other plastic back on and difficult to put the screws back in the PS4. Went through this myself. Hopes that's the case and you too can save your money.

@filli3636 6 лет назад

Hey @TronicsFix I know this video is a couple years old now but has there been an increase in power supply failures since you posted this or would you say that it is still only 10-20% of consoles have the power supply as the issue?

@raifthemad 6 лет назад

One more possibility, if the console has been opened, is that one of the power block connectors is bent, just came across this version, symptom was almost the same. Light came on for a second or two then turned off, when pressed again it just beeped once and if pressed again light came on for 1-2 sec, repeating the pattern.

My PS4 turns on for 5 seconds with the light and some kind of scream coming from the fan but shuts off shortly after like in the first demonstration. This clearly isn't a power supply issue as it does not have the pulsing light and is alive for a bit longer but I'm confused because there is no straight forward answer. I'm aware I might have to replace the fan itself but don't know what else I'm supposed to get.

@OuijaBoard5423 5 лет назад

I have another sort of solution. Remove the top panels of the PS4. Then, remove the little metal piece on the right side of the console. Instead of placing washers, push down on one of the little plastic pieces that hold the metal piece in place. While doing this, turn the console on. I've tries this today and it worked so If you can, give it a try :)

@youtuberewind7575 5 лет назад

My PS4 goes on for about 20 seconds than clicks and shuts off. The blue light is solid. It’s not blinking. The fan doesn’t turn on either.

@Tekevin 4 года назад

I fixed mine, It happens because of a power outage that causes a surge in my power supply, I first checked the power supply and came out that was it. I usually use to unplug it leave it unplug for 5 hours and then turn on. It's a great idea to buy a surge protector.

@joshleija7127 7 лет назад

What about if it doesn't turn on at all? My ps4 has some cockroaches inside. My friend had the same problem and he just got a new one since he didn't want to mess with it. Can it be the power supply? Fyi I have the CUH-1115A model.

@worldjem 8 лет назад

Mine doesn't turn off this quickly. This is what happens for me: I turn the PS4 on and it works normally for hours, I finish and power it down entirely. Then after a few hours it will power itself back on, start to go through the normal boot process and turn off, then this loops where it turns on normally (white light), shows the loading bar on screen for the "improper shutdown" thing and then shuts down. I had to unplug the PS4 to get it to stop, so I did. After a few more hours, I plugged it back in and made sure to really have the power cable stuck in the slot on the PS4, booted it up, and it ended up working fine. Might this be some sort of power connection issue?

@Dtx.coyote 8 лет назад

Same problem have u fixed it yet?

@Tronicsfix 8 лет назад

+worldjem I'm not sure about this...It's probably a connection problem between the APU and motherboard but I can't say for sure.

@sobversion3 6 лет назад

same for me along w/ an overheating problem (i cleaned it _wasn't really dusty in the 1st place for a launch system_ and changed the thermal). the Problems still exist so i just unplug it when im done and plug it back up when im going to use it.

@VytoneJr 4 года назад

Ok, so I'm having a lot of trouble determining if I have a power supply or apu problem, and while this video helps a lot, there are a few things that still prevent me from figuring out whether to buy a power supply, try out your vid on fixing the apu, or maybe reballing. My ps4 will turn on, give me a blue light, then turn off within 1-2 seconds. I don't hear a fan at all really, but theres probably a few "clicks" if you can even call it that. The ps4 also starts working again for half a day if I leave it unplugged for a full day (glad for this cuz I was able to eject a game as well as copy data that I didn't want lost). Finally, when I try to turn it back on right away it doesn't try turn on again until about 5-10 seconds later. This problem seems to have a mix of the apu/power supply symptoms, and it does not help that the power supply example in this video was awful. In the vid, i don't know wtf that weird beep was when you turned it on, I hardly heard any clicks. I kind of heard a click that sounded like a flipping a light switch if that is the "click". Can anyone help diagnose what problem my ps4 has?

@BiecherBender 9 лет назад

+TronicsFix I have the same problem as Nick Stewart has, unfortunately I can't send it in, because I'm from Germany. Am I right in assuming that this failure is most likely caused by a bad solder joint underneath the APU?

@Tronicsfix 9 лет назад

+J Bender Yes, either a bad joint or the APU itself. Too bad you don't live closer! We don't have any relationships with shops over there so I don't even know who to refer you to.

@gabegamer3663 5 лет назад

My PS4 turns off immediately after power up - the fan starts spinning and becomes very loud before the console beeps twice and turns off. I am assuming this means the console "thinks" it is over heating and thus spins the fan at rapid rate before shutting itself off. Is the sensor replaceable?

@leionpearce8724 5 лет назад

The problem I am having is that my PS4 is turning on and the PS logo is showing up but after that the screen stays black for a minute then turns off. If I hold the power button down for seven seconds, a couple of helpful options show up that I can click on but then the screen goes black and turns of after a minute. Before it started doing this it would take a long time to get into anything that I click into on the home screen and I’m not sure what to do so if you can please help me

@mikewiththebluecar 4 года назад

What gets me is I had this problem about a year ago then it went away and I just moved and the problem is back again. I tried connecting the power to a surge protector and also tried just plugging directly into the wall and it still keeps shutting off. My system isn’t getting hot. I’ve installed fans in my entertainment center one blowing in and the other blowing out to keep cool air circulating inside the enclosure and that has dramatically reduced the heat building up. So it seems unlikely that it would be a hardware issue if the problem went away for a year despite using it every single day with no problems. I’m trying a database rebuild and I’ll see what that does.

They man great video! I have a PS4, I changed the thermal paste recently, also the ps4 is clean (no dust), but when I turn it on it works for a while (20 minutes) and then it turns off, do you have any idea why is this happening? Any help is appreciated. Thanks again and cheers from Costa Rica!!!

@yri2217 4 года назад

This happened to me the first time today I was taking a nap and I heard that beep when you turn it on the light was white then went blue after that it shut back down so I just ignored it now that I'm about to play I opened it and it went straight to that message where it says "Checking the system storage status... Do not turn off the PS4. After the check has completed, the PS4 will automatically restart." Then it booted back to a message on the screen telling me to connect my controller to the PS4 using the charger and press the PS button after that it said to connect a USB more than 8GB to save all your stuff so you don't lose all your files. I don't have a USB so I just pressed cancel and it just turned itself off I try to turn it on again and it finally went to that PlayStation logo like how it would normally start up. Any ideas on the causes of this I could just leave it alone since it started normally but I can see this happening again in the future that's why I wanna know why. Thanks.

@edwardshive9725 3 года назад

I have a PS4 that was working fine until my grand son took it apart to clean in. When doing that he got a little ahead of himself and pulled out the power supply without tilting it first and ripped out the power supply connector on the motherboard. All 4 pads were ripped out of the board and I have spent way too much time trying to MaGiver it. I just bought an as is PS4 tha turns on and turns back off. I have a good power supply and also have all the matching chips on the original motherboard. Am I pretty well coverd on this repair ?
