Excellent video. The side by side comparison of symptoms is brilliant since they behave fairly similarly. That part of your video told me I had a PS issue so I kept watching to see how to pull it out and troubleshoot it. Imagine my surprise when I looked at the transformer and found it in the exact same state as the one in your video... slightly raised from the board, both wires pulled off the pins. I'm an electronics tech so I'll be taking these parts to work tomorrow to use our soldering bench to try to make the same repair you did. I'll report back with the results.

That's what I'm about to do cause that's the only problem it could be

you my sir are a beast, fair play too you, give up the good work.

When the visual inspection turned out good and there's nothing bad-looking, the first thing to do is to check the fuse for continuity. Easy to replace and quite often the reason why you have a completely dead system. Oh, and on the Slim it's also probably a good choice to check if the power button board is actually connected. I had a Slim where it wasn't. And I was the first one to open it up. System acts completely dead (I didn't check if I could start it with a controller), I opened it up, took the PSU apart, checked everything I could think of with my multimeter, swapped over another PSU, still nothing. Was annoyed that I had to take it apart (the PS4 slim has way too many screws), turned it around and saw that somehow that stupid ribbon cable from the power button board had come lose. Plugged it back in, PS4 works perfectly.

Right on thats exactly what I figured out on a power supply I just worked on!! Love repairs and getting stuff fixed 😁 you rock dude

Nice one Andrew. It would be nice if they were all that direct.

Hi Andrew, Thanks so much for your videos! I'm blown away by the way you can fix hardware issues as good as in factories. I currently have a BLOD issue which first seems to be a motherboard issue (2sc blue light, hard drive noise, fan start working, then I can "switch off" the console (i know it thanks to the beep) and switch it on again). However, I tested the power supply with a multimeter and the main output (where the two long spikes plug), deliver 2V instead of 12V. Did you get the same voltage during your tests? Many thanks again!

@AndrewPaul

8 жыл бұрын

No it should show 12v but only very briefly on a 2 second BLOD - if it powers off after a couple of seconds depending on your multimeter it may not refresh quickly enough to show the short spike which could explain why you're only seeing 2v. By all means though try a different PSU if you have one to hand but I think yours will be an APU issue. Cheers.

Champion, i had the same issue on a ADP-240CR but it was the marginally smaller transformer next to the 2 big main caps. my guess the console took a tumble? as it actually broke the transformer in half on the bottom on one side of the 3 poles that attach to the board. 1 single core wire broke away from one of the poles, shorted out and took out the Q5 mosfet and the fuse together. replaced those and all working sweet again.

Hello, excellent video. I am trying to repair the ADP-240CR source for ps4, I don't know the differences between the one you repair in the video and the one I am trying to repair. It would have the schematic of the ADP-240CR. They are very similar but I need the schematic. In my case, the source does not turn on or bridge pins 1 and 3 of the connector. Thank you

good job bro

When are you going to get a remote microphone my friend ?? I am Fascinated by your videos as I am learning how to repair game machines, but to hear you is real tough.

I’m from thailand thanks so much For VDO i like it

Hi Andrew, Your video is excellent! Thank you very much for this. My PS4 is behaving like the one on right but it's completely my from a series of wired behaviour. First it didn't reboot after updates, but I could turn it on and off manually. Then it didn't turn on at all but if unplug the main and wait 30 seconds it did and now it's behaving like the one on the right. I tried to give it a little shake and few bumps it worked for a bit and then nothing. This let me think something mechanical was faulty I.e some wire that when off or something. I hope Ned the psu but from a visual inspection all seems fine. What are your thought? How can I properly test the PSU. I have some electronics experience so I know my way around multimeters and soldering iron. Can it be the DNP015 ic in this case too? Many thanks

Hi, mate! First of all, you are brilliant! Definitely you know how to repair. I'm from Serbia and I really need some advice from you. What can this be: I need to press couple of times power button to turn my ps4 on. When it's turned on, the blue light blinks (BLOD), no image on tv. What can this be? Is this the PSU or something else? Thank you!

Good day Andrew Paul :) I know what you said in the beginning of the video, but i just wanted to ask anyway > My ps4 has that clicking sound and then it switches off, Should i replace the power supply? Thanks *)

I have a PS4 doing the thing on the left, weird part is that I've replaced the motherboard with a working one, and it's still the same issue.

thank You ! ihave my PS4 dont run at all , I m testing the power supply module and find 12v output is not present, also find this transformer You worked seems overheated. tell me something, the four thick pins of my transformer all have continuity, and the three of the other side have continuity only the 1st and 3rd, but not the center, is this normal or need to take out this transformer to test it? also ask you how much voltaje should be present at this transformer?

Know the value of the zener diode ZD32 component, thank you very much!

Hi. Need some info please. A mosfet 24n60m2 is there an alternative to it and where would I find one and in what. Thank you. Stay safe

Good evening I have the same problem as your left ps4, it turns on and then turns off 2 seconds after. I opened it but I am not the transformer wires that are desoldered. So do you think that it also comes from the trasformer too? The ADP-240CR power supply model

Mine was more like on the right.Now it's completely done.No light & no sound at all.Went to the game shop earlier dude was saying it could be the motherboard & quoted $150 to repair.Ridiculous.Without even bother dismantling & checking.Any idea what's wrong with my ps4?

I ACTUALLY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS AND MY PROBLEM WAS ON THE RIGHT SIDE AND I BOUGHT A NEW ADP-240AR POWER SUPPLY

My PS4 slim was off, just a beep when trying to connect, no video, no cooler spinning, no going into safe mode, I did not accept disks. Nothing worked. So I put the motherboard of ps4 in the heated oven at 200 degrees for 15 minutes, and now it responds, accepts and ejects the disk, synchronizes the control via bluetooth but does not give video and blue light pulsates. I have read in some places that may have relation with the PSU ... Have you ever picked up a case where the console pulsates blue, but does not give video and does not enter safe mode?

Hello! My power supply is the same model, but it sometimes works, and sometimes not. I measured diode D21 with a multimeter and it did not show a closed circuit. Is it normal?

Good job thank Man

Sometimes my PS4 behaves like the one on the left, but other times I am able to power on normally. All menu functions/internet browsing/downloads work at this point. However, when loading games, the ps4 display immediately turns off. The PS4 is still powered on with a white light, just no display. I am thinking this is also a PSU issue, as the increased power demand to the graphics card crashes it. Thoughts?

I have the same power supply. Ps4 starts normal, but if i turn it off and try to start again, it shows the blue light, cklicks and goes off. After that i cant start the ps4 until i unplug the power cable, wait a time and put it back in. After that the ps4 starts normal. Do you have an idea? Psu looks good, no faulty places on first look

Any idea where I can get this specific part, mines busted needs replaced.

Yep my ps4 is having psu issues. So easy to repair. Got china on the phone and got a brand new psu on the way for $17

Ps4 slim power supply got smoked while im playing but i opened it i dont see any burn marks or explode components?? Hope for ur reply thanks..

Mine is no doubt a sibling of the gal on the right. I have a 1215a, and have sent it in twice. This will be the third. I keep getting the same system back,even after explaing that i build computers for a living, and know that the repair is not your everyday hard drive or software swap. What has me completely stumped is that mine will 80% of the time repeat the blue flick to dead, and depending on the amount of time from last unsuccessful attempt to full boot the system will operate longer. Overheating somewhere initially was the suspect, but was ruled out when the blue flick evolved and can shutdown the system within 2 minutes even after days of sitting disconnected. But the damn thing decided to totally mindf..K me yesterday.I got the blue flick,dead,but got a full boot after 4 to 5 back to back replug attempts! Now the strange part is that its still running now! Matter of fact, im using it to post this message. Im totally stumped, and starting to think my system has become aware!!!! Just joking, what would you do with this strain of the blue flick?

i have a the same problem as the one on the left can you help me with it?

Hello Andrew Paul, I am from Argentina and I have a problem with a PS4 ADP-240AR source where I turn on the console, it is raising the system for a few seconds, it automatically turns off by clicking on the source. With my multimeter check the arrival of 220v, 5v. The capacitors, the smallest gives 300v and the largest 307v, the fuse has continuity, the resistors too. However I do not have 12v, will it be because of the DNP012A chip? Thank you for your videos and training us, I await your response and can help you in whatever you need.

This is a nice video. My Ps4 also have this problem. Where can I buy the Transformer? Can you give me a model name? Thank you!

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.

Just curious, since transformer lives upside down and just hangs off of pins which are friction fit only, why didn't you apply epoxy to pins to hold them in place, or put any adhesive or tape under transformer to hold it to pcb, and thus keep this problem from re-occuring?

@AndrewPaul

+john browne Hi there, it isn't - it is linked to those pins via two leads soldered onto them. It was these leads giving way which enabled the transformer to become dislodged when it was impacted. It is a tight fit otherwise so isn't really required. Cheers.

@johnbrowne3964

8 жыл бұрын

+Andrew Paul The only thing holding the transformer to the pcb is the pins, which are press/friction fit only. An impact caused the pins to slide out of transformer, which pulled solderer wires loose. A dab of adhesive or double sided tape under the transformer would take some weight off the pins, and maintain a "factory" look if that is important.

+jesse hill hi Jesse, that's normal behaviour for a BLOD - if you can power cycle the machine without unplugging and plugging it back in then you've most probably got an APU fault.

Great vid, I have a similar problem. BLoD - PS4 turns on but no input to TV, light pulses constantly and fan/disk drive both work. Won't boot into safe mode it just goes off after I've held the power button for about 10 seconds. I've tried all the easy things like re seating the HDD and leaving it off and unplugged for a few days. Any ideas? Is it worth me trying to take the PSU apart and having a look around like in this vid or would you say it's likely to be something different? Thanks.

It's very likely to be different - it's a general error condition and can be caused by literally anything. Sometimes it's APU related but anything else and it's really not worth chasing for what they're worth these days. See here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yohmj8t8csvRpbQ.html

Had the PS4 about 2 weeks (second hand) so I am pretty annoyed that it's now useless. Question though: if I buy a brand new one now will I be able to reuse the hard drive in the new PS4 if the models are the same? My worry would be is if the hard drive is causing the problem could it brick the new PS4? Thanks very much.
