Kinda wish you gave me more time to see what kind of screws go where like where black went and where the different sized silver ones went, this video helped but could've been a little more helpful with that
Best disassembly video on RUclips! I had the small silver loose piece left after reassembly. Wouldn't have had a clue where it went back without watching this 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
12:35, that's actually the WRONG way to put back the antenna. You need to drop the power supply first and insert the 2 prongs of the antenna into the bottom shell. The antenna actually clamps the PSU to the shell. If anyone does it the way it's shown in the video, you're going to have problems putting the top shell back. you can actually see the power supply not fully dropping in, due to the wrong way the antenna was put back. I had to learn this the hard way
What a great video, watching this video I thought: that's a lot of work and many people don't recognize this work of the technicians to keep our consoles working, I don't have a ps4 ou Xbox (not yet), but I appreciate this work, Thanks for this video.
I will confirm this. This video is SPECIFICALLY for the CUH-2015A or B or whatever 2015 model there is, because I worked on a 2155B model I think, and that model did not have as NEARLY as many screws and parts as this. This video helped a ton because I have a 2015A or B model I had to put back together. The only problem was seeing which specific screws go where, cus there’s literally like 4-5 different Philips head screws with different lengths and tread patterns
Thanks to you I was able to put it back. I got lucky finding your type of video. It was the only one i was able to find. You saved me alot of frustration.
You saved my life lol one of the two pieces fell off while I was cleaning my ps4 and I had no idea where to put it lol 😂 I got now though hopefully my ps4 well run smooth now
Agree with the screws or at least show holes like you did but then a quick show of what screw. Other than that THANK YOU Tore down months ago to do paste, got busy and months later. Forgot how to put slim back together
This is the best video that shows you complete teardown assembly of a PS4 slim all the other videos are a bunch of talkin and aggravation and this is the only video that shows you exactly what you need.. I literally watched 15 videos before I found this one trying to figure out where these two little pieces go that fell out when I was cleaning my PS4 slim and this is the only video that completely step-by-step showed me how to fix it
I was watching another video how to fix my cd drive was juss cleaning it with the duster turned the ps4 upside down heard a lil metal piece was panicking was trying alot of videos u the only one to show me what I was looking for .Till I found it 8:53 thanks u saved me from buying another 1
Thankfully, there aren't actually many screw types. With a little prep work you can pretty much figure out what goes where by watching a video like this. First sort the screws. You'll find that most of the screws are in three piles: black, silver, and slightly shorter silver. The two types of silver screw are where you're likely to run into trouble, since their heads look very similar. Here's the trick: the shorter silver screws have fine threads (the threads are close together) and always screw into metal. The longer silver screws have coarse threads (the threads are farther apart) and always screw into plastic. So, as you watch the video, any screw with a black head will be the black screws (and will be screening into metal) of you see a silver head, look into the hole. If you see black plastic, use the longer silver screw. If you see silver or gray metal use the shorter silver screw. All the other screws are different enough that you should be able to identify them from a video.
Removing the warranty sticker, no longer negates the warranty, as of 5/14/18, S.E.I realizes from time to time the stickers may get damaged or torn, possibly even removed simply by customers putting their consoles into a stereo cabinet or TV cabinets. So removable will no longer void, or otherwise negates the warranty. Sony update of warranty can be found and read and agreed to on their web-site.
Incredible video. Completely idiot proof. I bought a secondhand ps4 and it's in desperate need of some TLC but I've been too afraid to open it up. So thanks for the guide.
I use needle nose pliers; with teeth. It's important to use little force when gripping (but enough so that the pliers don't slip) and lightly rock the plug side to side while pulling. Don't pull too hard or you can yank the wires.
Power and/or eject not working after re-assembly? Everything is designed with hyper-low tolerances and assembled by robots, so the power/eject buttons may not align correctly after you tear it apart to give it a cleaning or replace a disc drive. Inside the bottom outer casing for the ps4 slim there little structural supports connecting the bottom to the front, just use a razor or a hobby knife cut out the 2 nearest to the power/eject buttons and presto: perfectly aligned power and eject buttons. hope this helps even 1 person
@@fighter_anas nah man, youve got a few silver machine screws just like the black ones. A few silver longer screws with a tip. And then a few longer then the previous.open a ps4

Screw those thermal pads they go bad too you know that right I’m replacing mine with K5 pro it’s way better than thermal pads it replaces pads up to 3mm thick, did an odd PS3 *( man it runs better than it ever did there was no thermal paste on the RSX chip there was a tiny bit around it dried up the graphics on that system were never great now 1080p playback is crystal clear )* the other day there was no deliting it, strangest layout I’ve ever seen for a PS3 super slim I have a slim left to go that I know has two chips to delid *( after that all my consoles will be back to better than factory Sony uses crap thermal paste MX-4 is way better )* a lot of ppl don’t know under that big nickel chromium ihs’s there’s a laptop size chip and thermal paste under there that needs to be replaced as well I see so many repaste there ps3’s without dliting
Please help with this: Does anyone here know what brand is recommended and what size in millimeters for the thermal pads of the ps4 slim ???? Thanks in advance
Great video brother, got a PS4 slim that I have to work on this week and I’m using this video for sure. By any chance do you have a video like this for the PS4 “Model CUH-1215A”?
Can you send me a PDF or something of the organization of the screws? I took mine apart, and stupidly bunched the screws together. I know the difference between them, just don't know where they go.
Kinda wish you gave me more time to see what kind of screws go where like where black went and where the different sized silver ones went, this video helped but could've been a little more helpful with that
Yes, I can't find a proper screwplan on the internet, THAT would be most useful.
There's arrows marked were the screws go i just marked black ones with a sharpie
Pause it
Yeah pause it at the start g,all you gotta do
@user-vp5bt5bc1y pausing it isn't the issue the camera is pretty far from the consol so it's small and hard to keep track of, trust me I paused.
You can ask for Playstation to repair it FOR 150, or you can watch this legend save the day!
My slim is different for some reason but this still helped me a lot. Thanks 👍
So glad you highlighted those 2 little pieces that can fall out on the top. Had one of those 'why is it righty loosy, oh no' moments
Best disassembly video on RUclips! I had the small silver loose piece left after reassembly. Wouldn't have had a clue where it went back without watching this 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Yup. Same problem here
Dude saved my skin with the silver and black tab that falls out haha
@@snoogans9636 wait where does it dog
Same
@7:20 in case anyone missed it
7:21 came for this! thanks a bunch
Had 1 screw leftover and couldn't figure it out watching in .25x what i missed lol but oh well still works, thanks for the tutorial vid
Me too. I figured it out it was the back screw of the power supply.
Yeah the video is just too fast in all of the moments I need it to be! And too slow in all the moments I don't care about!

Thanks, I have successfully replaced my Blu-Ray drive. Your disassembly and (just as important) assembly instructions were excellent! Thanks again
How much is a new Blue-ray drive?
@@gtsonev1988 70$ USD for me.
Wanted to know how to remove the ribbon plugs I didn’t want to ruin them. Watching this video helped a lot dude thanks
What a great video, watching this video I thought: that's a lot of work and many people don't recognize this work of the technicians to keep our consoles working, I don't have a ps4 ou Xbox (not yet), but I appreciate this work, Thanks for this video.

Slow done vid lol
Staying up taking my ps4 apart cause I spilt water on it and this music makes me wanna fall asleep forever
you are very good, i loved your video, it is the best video to disassemble a ps4 slim from youtube.
What size is thickness of thermal pads, and why you don't replace them?
Big thanks only one longest silver screw left 😊
6 yrs later bro saves my ps4 from water damage
Agree with the screws or at least show holes like you did but then a quick show of what screw.
Other than that THANK YOU

Did full disassembly just to clean my fan. You saved me bro, thanks.
Did you have to replace the artic silver thermal paste? Or its possible to reach the fan without take the heatsink from the board?
@@Damage9Jr might as well do it while your there. To get a full clean the fan is the last item removed.
only deserve one word bro ... PRO ... Thank you very much

They still do put stickers on the back. I guess just to see if you opened it and for them to take a closer look if you messed with anything

5:32 the worst part of this entire thing, I just can’t get it out
I use needle nose pliers; with teeth. It's important to use little force when gripping (but enough so that the pliers don't slip) and lightly rock the plug side to side while pulling. Don't pull too hard or you can yank the wires.
I like your channel no bullshit straight to the point
I was cleaning my ps4 slim and the metal piece mentioned after 7:16 did move and I was so confused. Thankfully, this video was a lifesaver.
Best video out there
This video has helped me a lot but I recommend you add your voice to explain certain things.
Mate you are the best at minute 7:20 you cracked it. On my life I could not find or figure out where the 2 plates went. Thank you so much!!!

since OP fast-forwarded through the entire thing and literally gave zero info or tips
Now which screws go where 🤔
Very helpful video. Thanks for making too!
3 years late but while helpful, there are 5 different types of silver screws in this. Would have been nice if you pointed out what type goes where
articular orb i think it is the same (i think)
