Here's the PS5 overheating FIX that actually works! Doing this will stop your PlayStation 5 from shutting off.. If your PS5 turns off by itself you can try cleaning the PS5 power supply, & your PS5 will run like new! I show you step-by-step how to clean the power supply for PlayStation 5 & fix your PS5 from overheating or randomly shutting off. If your PS5 power supply overheats you can take apart the console & use basic household items to fully clean the PS5 system power supply. Doing this has many benefits like helping your PS5 last longer, run quieter, & prevent overheating when playing PS5 games that use a LOT of performance. If your PS5 ever experiences overheating problems you can either send your PS5 to Sony, or clean it yourself.
You can follow this guide to help clean the PS5 power supply at your own risk. Doing this is NOT for the average user, & requires technical skill to complete this project. For MORE tips & tricks or How-To guides for your PlayStation 5, remember to SUBSCRIBE.

For anyone that might be planning on doing this and feel a bit leery, I would recommend taking pics of everything before disassembly as you go. Also, get some paper cups or other small containers for all of the different screws. You might even want to label them with where they came from. Doing this keeps stuff from getting lost or mixed up and gives you pics to reference when putting everything back together and connecting the wires. 🙂

@jun4466 7 месяцев назад

I'm no longer confident with disassembling and reassembling PS products, therefore, I'm certainly not going to go in depth with this particular machine. I recently disassembled PS4 (original model) in order to clean off and reapply thermal paste inside the CPU. I followed a tutorial, which I thought was easy to follow along. During the disc drive detachment, the tutorial said to LIFT the lip to remove ribbon, instead of PRESSING DOWN. A tiny piece of the T-shaped ribbon broke off inside the lip, but I didn't think anything of it at the time. As it turned out, now the power & eject button no longer responds, and disc drive no longer accepts any BR & games. :(

@Niiixxxx 7 месяцев назад

@@jun4466 Yes I attempted to fix my PS1, unsuccessfully. Fixed 2 x PS2s by replacing the laser but both eventually broke again and bought another off marketplace. Have a PS3 that won't read BluRay discs just DVDs but don't have a security torx to undo the screws. At least 4 PS2 cordless controllers have ended up in a worse state after attempting to fix them. At least, for now, my PS4 and PS5 are working well although I do have a PS4 controller that half the buttons don't work. I found a page that suggested taking it apart and reseating the flexible plastic circuit board (PCB). Did all that 3 times with no luck and the person said I'd need to order a new PCB. Haven't done that yet.

@Ding-2014 10 месяцев назад

If you're not confident enough to do a full disassembly, just go as far as removing the fan. Then get a UV torch and a long q-tip used in electricals. The torch highlights where dust is, making it glow light blue. With the fan removed, you look down the cavity space, down the length of the console below the fan, and you can see the 'cheese grate' PSU holes, and fish out any dust bunnies with your q-tip. Personally, I did a full disassembly and found it not really worth it in my opinion. There wasnt much dust in my heatsinks. Most of it was on the PSU holes which I could have just as easily cleaned using the way I described. Its quite a design flaw to have these important vents, facing upwards, directly underneath the fan... dust just falls straight onto them.

@simon-515 4 месяца назад

@guily6669 4 месяца назад

The main problem is dust build up is not the flaw here but rather the metal liquid compound which eventually leave dry spots and will start going bad. Sony should have went for those liquid changing thermal pads instead which start to get liquid with heat and have close to liquid metal heat transfer.

To minimized the frequent cleaning is to make sure your desk is not also accumulating dust or dirt by cleaning the top. Also, you will know that your console is gathering dust if your incoming and outer vent fins are collecting or sticking some dust particles from those areas.

@Kevun777 10 месяцев назад

Or you guys can get a angle brush, and clean it from the inside of the fan. Once you’re done you can tilt it vertically with the fan side on the floor or table and smack the top to bring the whole dust out you cleaned out.

@RadDadBrad 10 месяцев назад

Get a small handheld vacuum with a bendable hose. If you take the fan out, you can bend the hose into the power supply and vacuum it out. I havent seen any dust buildup on mine and ive opened my ps5 4 times since owning it. The fan will get a decent amount of dust on it as well as the exhaust vents. But a nornal vacuum will reach those and you dont need a special mini vacuum for those. Im guessing as long as you consistently clean the fan and exhuast ports, the power supply won't get buildup on it.

You can also find an authorized repair center and aside from deep cleaning, get the Liquid Metal reapplied especially if you play vertically. I had overheating issues and the fan going crazy with certain games and when I got my Ps5 checked, the insides were clean even the PSU. Apparently, the liquid metal slid down a bit creating a dry/hotspot on the APU.

@mabybee 10 месяцев назад

Yeah, he didn’t mention that & should’ve for clarity. However, anyone that has any familiarity with warranties is going to realize that pretty quickly. There are exceptions but just about any warranty is going to come with a clause that the warranty is voided if the defect stems from misuse of the product or owner made alterations that affect/disable the product. Still, I agree. It’s important to make disclaimers about things like that for viewer clarity & just as a legal precaution. It might be that he’s made so many videos that involve disassembling the system so it’s just assumed knowledge for his regular viewers to anticipate the warranty being nullified if you do anything more than change out the covers or possibly add an SSD. But if anyone is a first time viewer or hasn’t gathered that assumption yet, it very well could lead to some real issues for those viewers.

It's currently illegal to have the "warranty void if removed" sticker on products and yet Sony hasn't been called out on it on all PlayStation consoles. A law was passed sometime in the 1970s.

The amount of TP they put in the consoles were SUPER small which is why the fans are so loud. That and the thermal paste at the time was also dried up.

Hi just want to say thank you i dissembled my ps5 now it can never turn on again , thank you very much 🙂

I did this before, you should watch TronicsFix video on opening the ps5 for a more depth+tools links for doing what this video does. Be very careful, if you feel like you don't have the patience or time, do it another day, or don't open it as much. The one and only time I did, I forgot the blue ribbon cable that connects the external buttons to the actual console (on/off, eject) and my heart stopped. I only clean the first side vents and inside the area with the fan now.

Yes, TronicsFix is very good and detailed in his videos.

I had this issue with my PS5,I clean the fan and used a toothbrush the clean the dust off my power supply. After that I bought a vertical PS5 with cooling fans,and got 3 more cooling fans attached the back,so it's keeping the bottom cool and back side. A total of 5 cookings fans. No more problems.

So I did this and had success but what about the thermal paste between the motherboard and metal plane that coats the opponents should that be reapplied

I would recommend taking a close up photo at each step.

@jeremy2283 10 месяцев назад

If in doubt take pictures during disassembly! That way you have a reference during reassembly.

You do not got to take the fan out of old just use compressed air on the power supply through the fan whole when u take the fan out

I also recommend gamers to clean their rooms (mop/vacuum/sweep/dust) and replace your house or apartment air filter to FPR 9 or above (or close to 2200). AND dont forget to replace it every few months or so.

This guy knows his thing. Im not gunna risk it to pass a toothbrush on the power supply

Do you need to do this for the series x? .. if not im selling PS5 for Xbox. Didn't spend money to maintain a gameing console.

This single handedly saved my day 1 ps5 i always only cleaned the fan and the inside the best i could with canned air but about 3 weeks ago my ps5 started to overheat to the point of only 5 minutes on the homescreen id get the temperature alert. I called sony after the 3rd time the alert popped up and since ive had my ps5 for about 2 ½ years the warranty was up and sony wanted $300 to send it in and look at it and at that point i said to myself id rather just spend the extra $246 to buy a brand new one since theyre available but this video appeared to me today and though i was not confident to do this i did and cleaning the power brick stopped the alerts and my ps5 is going strong once again thanks for the video!

I think in non smoking room as mine clearing fan once each 6 months will do the job together with clearing outside dust that collects on surface for like every 10 days . I play about 3 hours each day at least and if I intend to play again I make 2 hours pause and completely turn off console. Even after 3 hours I can barely feel warmth on ps5 when I touch it with hand. Also i dont ever hear fan working unlike with ps4 which had habbit to go crazy with games like God of war and similar. Also clearing fan of ps5 is so much easier compared to ps4 ( slim ) and God forbid ps3 where I had to completely take apart entire console ( ps3 slim ) . I think ps5 is really friendly console regarding all this.

Without first watching the video to the end. Surely once you've removed the fan you can get some flexible hoover attachment in there?

@larsjohansen821 10 месяцев назад

Overall not a bad video. A good one for the purpose of externally cleaning the PSU in the console. Though the PSU is not the only thing that will cause the console to randomly shutdown.

@JohnGlasscock 10 месяцев назад

Thank you! & very true

@blueflame316 10 месяцев назад

How often does the PSU get dusty? I dunno what kind of environments people live in my but I've had my PS5 for 2.5 years and there's barely any dust inside.

@MegaNomad13 3 месяца назад

Same all about being clean

@willharris2607 7 месяцев назад

I did this without taking the whole thing apart. I just removed the covers and removed the fan and took my air compressor with my long rubber air tire inflator and just stuck it in there and blew it out and mainly took it and pushed the air through the backside of the ps5 where the vents are. It looks brand new in there now.

@LegooStories 10 месяцев назад

I’ve had this issue since December and I’ve been too scared to take the whole thing apart. I’ve Taken the fan out before and cleaned it along with the heat sink at the top by the fan. The issue still happens though. What do you think?

@bamban_garcia5562 10 месяцев назад

Solution: micro vacuum with long reaching hose to clean power supply area

@mohibkayanigaming4207 10 месяцев назад

There are so many small parts inside a PS5 we need to be extra careful even when cleaning it I'm okay with cleaning it from outside and can you tell me that what happens if we don't clean it

@youngdb9446 10 месяцев назад

What kind of screwdriver is that. Is there a link to buy one

@jeffghant4760 10 месяцев назад

I did this with my ps3 after 10 years. There was a dead bug in there but hardly any dust surprisingly. I use a dust cover for the ps5 when I'm not playing.
