SOLUTION TO PS4 Error SU-42118-6

I have managed to find a possible solution to the PS4 Update Error SU-42118-6. WHILE UPDATING TO 6.0
Follow instructions on PS4's website:
www.playstation.com/en-us/sup...
SCROLL DOWN TO THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR "Preform a new install of system software". You have to download the 1 GB FIRMWARE FILE by clicking "Download Now"
First, boot into safemode.
Go to Initialize PS4 (Reinstall System Software)
Plug in the USB with the Firmware File.
Click okay, and wait for the Error Message to pop up.
THEN, (YOU MUST HAVE YOUR PLAYSTATION OPEN***) DISCONNECT THE SILVER WIRE. CAREFULLY***. AND PLUG IT BACK IN, THE SAME WAY IT CAME OUT.
If you have any questions or it doesn't work, please let me know! THANKS AND GOOD LUCK!

    Thanks for this. I was able to solve the issue using this guide though my problem was a bit different so wanted to add some additional information. For me the disc drive would not eject or accept a disc. When I removed the ribbon cable and reinserted the PS4 would beep but not hard restart as described in this video. I was going to try getting a new ribbon but decided to check the ribbon attachment on the underside of the power board first. As I was removing the power board as described in the linked video, I noticed that the cable giving power to the disc drive (the cable just below the optic ribbon cable) was noticeably loose so I reinserted it fully and all my issues went away. I noticed some people commented they had the same issue with the disc drive not accepting/ejecting discs so thought I’d let everyone know how it was solved on my PS4.

    Please note with the primary drive cable (the one with the pull tab on the cable) you do not want to tug or twist the cable out. The metal tab on the top of the connector presses down to allow the two plastic fins to release and you should be able to pull it straight out with no effort. I've had many customers try to yank that cable out and they have the tabs broken off inside the connector and they are impossible/difficult to remove.

    For the 7.50 2020 update here is a fix for the 1001a model if you tried every easy fix and are at your wits end. The issue is most likely a broken ribbon connector between bd-rom and motherboard. I believe the issue affects people who have opened their ps4 for cleaning or fixing another issue. When improperly removing the ribbon cable connecting the bd-rom to the motherboard, they broke the outer pin on the bd-rom slot. You will know that is the case if the small ears/tabs are broken. Most people report no issue after replacing the connector. But before ordering a replacement, try flipping the connector, it might bypass the issue; that means connecting the motherboard male to the bd-rom female and bd-rom male to motherboard female. You will also have to rebend it to fit this new position and use some tape to hold it in place if, after rebending it, it has a hard time staying connected on the motherboard side due to having broken ears. After that, download the update in a USB stick and install in safe mode. I also used the 1 gig version of the update; not sure if that made any difference. Also the proper way to remove that ribbon is by pushing on the small metal tab on the connector. Here is a link to that ribbon connector, for model 1001a www.amazon.com/Gametown%C2%AE-Drive-Ribbon-Sony-Playstation-4/dp/B00WZAGTXU

    For those who don't have a fix, fuse f6202 was blown on mine. None of the cable methods worked. I threw a blob of solder over the fuse to bypass it and it's working again after a year! Do this at your own risk or better yet replace the fuse. It's a tiny one beside the renases chip on the mainboard (ps4 slim)

    @@omarsemeda1364 if you ever tried to open youre ps4 completely you might have damaged some parts accidentally ..in my case while putting together my ps4 i might have done something wrong while putting together my disc drive..its not functioning the way it should at all since then ,thats why i couldnt update my system to 8.50 as its necessesary the whole system to be working fine . I had to start my ps4 while its opened up (like in the video ) and while downloading the update file i tried disconnecting and reconnect the disc drive cables ..it seems that doing that it resets the whole system so even tho my disc drive doesnt do its work somehow the system accepts it as it is working fine .Keep in mind the cables should be all connected to mother board ,then to disc drive (to check that lift the power supply to see if everything is connected ) . You can check if you done everything right when update starts installing and no error code appears. If this doesnt work for you then something else might be the problem ..i recommend trying different methods and just like in my case you will find a solution ..🙂

Ok so if youre disk isnt inserting then thats a good sign just turn off your ps4 completely and just smack it a couple times in the back. If the disk gets inserted then that means that you can update it now. If not then it probably is one of the ribbons. Im not joking im being 100% serious trust me

    After having this problem every time I had to update I was able to fix it. For context, I had to remove my blue ray drive since it stopped working and every time I had to update I would reconnect the board to that grey ribbon cable until 7.50 where it stopped taking it. After a few hours of stress and troubleshooting I took out that Greyish cable for the cd drive from my ps3 and aligned it onto my ps4 and it successfully updated with leads me to believe the cause of the error is a faulty blurry cable.

Sonys excuse was that heat from my XBox One caused corrosion in the PS4, so they weren't going to fix it. I'm still looking for this corrosion. All I can find is a little oxidation on one of the metal plates. Sounds like Sony just wants people to go out and buy more PS4's...

    Hi Eric. My resounding presumption is that the coded a block into the updates that render your disk drive unresponsive. Then, once it notices that the disk drive is unresponsive, it limits you from updating. I have an in-depth tutorial on how to fix it, I uploaded an update video. Check it out, you should have no problem fixing it if you follow my steps.

    Yeah, that's what it looks like happened. Worked perfect the night before the update, tried to do the update, got the error and the disk drive stopped working. All the info I'm finding online shows this issue goes back around 2 years and has to do with a faulty blu-ray cable, and Sony has done nothing to fix it. They just pull random excuses out of the air so they don't have to fix their screw up. I did some poking and prodding before I sent it in with info I got from videos, but none of it worked. I'll try your trick this weekend and see how it goes. Luckily I saved all my game data on a usb before I sent it in, and was able to transfer it all to the new PS4 I got 3 weeks ago.
