PlayStation 4 Pro: 插电开机蓝光亮一下就熄灭

Sat, 10 Jan 2026 11:27:15 -0700

很久没用了，按一下蓝光会亮一下然后马上熄灭，之后再按就没反应，拔掉电源一段时间再插上按开机又会亮一下后熄灭。

PlayStation 4 Pro: 游戏机没办法打开了，主机能亮，但是插上显示器没有画面，不知道是什么原因导致的

Thu, 04 Dec 2025 07:40:53 -0700

如题，有段时间没玩了，放在家里的储藏间，可能是没保护好，被蟑螂安家了，拿出来擦了擦，接入电源之后，主机可以亮，但是显示器没有画面显示，不知道是哪里出现了问题，过了质保，官方送修价格比较贵，检测是一笔费用，维修是一笔费用，想要问问有没有懂的大佬，判断下是什么问题，准备自己拆机维修更换。

PlayStation 3: Is this enough thermal paste for my PS3?

Mon, 04 May 2026 08:29:07 -0700

I opened my PS3 to replace the CMOS battery which involves exposing the processors. The guide I was using said to use a pea-size amount after cleaning the old paste off because the heatsink would spread it out. Is this enough to prevent major problems, or would spreading a thin layer or "X" shape have been better?

Model is CECHL03 (Fat) and thermal paste I used is Arctic MX4 if that changes anything

PlayStation 4: Why does my PS4 overheat & turn off after opening any game?

Sat, 02 May 2026 13:48:36 -0700

My PS4 is turning off immediately after I open up any game, disc-based or not. The PS4 first gives an on-screen warning that the PS4 is overheating, shortly followed by the light bar on the PS4 flashing a red color, 3 beeps, then a black screen. It does not, however, immediately turn off when I am on the main screen, only when I open up a game. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? (Additional information: it's the optical drive/HDD area which is overheating, and every time I turn the PS4 back on, it searches the HDD in the same fashion as though I installed a new one, and comes up with the error message that the PS4 what not shut down properly.)

Thanks in advance!

EDIT (2020.04.22): First off, wow I did not realize people even looked at this thread. Second, I want everyone to know I ended up sending my console to Sony, who kindly repaired it even after the warranty had expired (IIRC I only paid for shipping, it’s been so long IDEK). Thank you to Tronics as well as the many people who I have neglected these past (wow) 4 years for your wonderful tips, and best of luck to those who may have this problem in future. Stay savvy.

PlayStation 4: Mystery cog and spring in PS4 disk drive

Sat, 02 May 2026 01:21:44 -0700

I was trying to repair an issue with my ps4 not taking a disc. I now have a new problem. I opened up the top of the disc drive to reveal the laser but this was the wrong side to fix my problem. Not thinking I flipped it over and a little black cog and spring fell out. It's appears that the spring goes into the cog but I'm not sure and where you put them after that I haven't a clue. Any ideas?

PlayStation 4: UK PS4 will play USA Blu-ray but not DVDs

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 18:02:49 -0700

When I was living in the UK, I bought a PS4. I am now back living in the USA again, and wanted to play some DVD movies I bought here. When I insert the disc, it will not play because of a region lock. Blu-rays play no problem. I have read that when you put in a DVD, there is a prompt to change the region code, and you can change this up to 4 times. This prompt never appears for me. It just gives me an error code CE-35489-9. PlayStation support says it cannot be changed, which is ridiculous to me, but whatever. Is this a hardware issue or something that can actually be bypassed? I am trying to decide whether to just buy a DVD player or take the PS4 to someone who can help me change the region. As I said, Blu-ray plays fine. Both types were bought here in the US, so I don't understand why the Blu-ray plays but the DVD won't.

Sony Playstation 2 SCPH-79002: Ps2 no video, and power issues

Sun, 26 Apr 2026 17:03:19 -0700

It's not displaying video. At the yellow point, a resistor has fallen out, and at the red point, there's a very similar resistor that shows continuity. I tried to repair it myself; the console powers on but there's no video output. If I leave the PS2 to HDMI adapter connected, for some reason the console's light stays on even without the power cable.

PlayStation 4: How to fix PS4 Bluetooth receiver?

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 02:40:34 -0700

Hi, i am facing a problem with my PS4 i.e. while playing game PS4 stop receiving commands from the controller and then it executes all the commands at once which looks like game play is working on its own.

Reason why i am suspecting that the problem is with PS4 bluetooth reception is that i have faced the same issue with two separate controllers where as both the controllers are working perfectly fine on an other PS4.

looking forward to some great answers.

My BC Ps3 launch day drive wont connect to the console. The ZIF clip to hold the ribbon cable broke. No matter how many times I try to get something to sit on it/weigh it down/lay it in the connectors nothing has worked. Could it be a ribbon cable issue or do I have to replace the whole ZIF connector?

PlayStation 4: Looking for a ps4 midframe part

Fri, 17 Apr 2026 00:25:54 -0700

I'm looking for a ps4 midframe part that looks like this

https://ibb.co/ksFFtFWj

Here's a website called fasttech where the part is in stock

https://fasttechstore.com/playstation-4-...

My question is are the parts exactly the same? I do have a CUH-1115A ps4 and the fasttech website seems to have the correct part in stock. From the pictures on fasttech.com, I really can't tell.

On fasttech.com, the back of the part, where the lan and hdmi plug in, it doesn't look slanted in the pictures.

I'm 99.9% sure that this is the correct part. The only reason I'd like to replace the part is because heat from the hardware has caused the plastic to break apart.

PlayStation 4 Pro: PS4 Pro Displays Black Screen, Even in Safe Mode

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 04:02:05 -0700

Hello, I have a PS4 Pro CUH 7016B, and it has some strange issues. When I got the PS4, it would turn off after some time while playing demanding games, and it also had an overheating warning, so I thought new thermal paste would solve it. I used Arctic MX-6, and I am sure I applied it correctly, as I have done this many times. After reassembling the console, it was still not that quiet, but as far as I know, this is normal for Pros. The next day, I tried testing it further to ensure it was working properly, and in the middle of the game, it beeped three times and turned off. The weird thing is that the fans were not even at max speed, so I am assuming overheating is not an issue. I did not receive any overheating warnings. Sometimes it would also turn off without even beeping. To be completely sure, I reapplied the thermal paste, but that did not change anything. Then I tried testing the PSU with a multimeter, and it was showing 11.86 volts, so that should be okay. The next thing I tried was replacing the HDD, but after doing so, the blue light would flash once before the console turned off. After trying to power it on a few more times, it turned on, but now all I see is a black image, and that's it. I tried putting the old HDD back in, but nothing changed. The same thing happened in safe mode. I also tried cleaning the HDMI cord, using different TVs and displays, and using a different HDMI cable, all with no success. Does anybody know why this is happening? Maybe my APU is dead?

Edit: i should have clarified this before but it does actually seem to enter safe mode because the light turns white.
