Thanks for watching! The PS5 used in this video was a donor console previously used by other technicians (which is why you might not see the antenna’s attached etc). 😊
If the video helped, please considering subscribing to the channel 😊
Wow amazing, i did this and now my ps5 is so clean it doesn't want to turn on again
😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Maybe you should put the dust right back in so it can turn on again 😂😂
bro did you find a fix cause mine is the same
Oh hell nah i ain’t cleaning my ps5 no more
If anyone has smoked (Tobacco or weed) and played their PS5... everything will have a layer of sticky residue that won't allow you to simply vacuum or wipe the dust away. Get a big bottle of 99% Isopropyl alcohol and a lot of qtips.
You can use a cloth and alcohol and it removes all of the residue
Will 91% work???👀👀
@@WavyJaylen yes.
Wtf y’all be doin with that ps5 lol 😅
@@OrionApostlesmoking right next to it
Great video, I'll add something. The power supply is also cooled by the intake fan so I would check the power supply for dust too. Great work Joey.
THANKS!!! USED THIS TO clean my ps5 - which had just started to randomly quit mid-game ...; EASY TO FOLLOW
Did it work to stop the issue of quitting mid game?
wow I had issues until this video shed light on some thing I didnt know about. Thank to my nephews small tiny fingers and my capacity of following instructions. AND THANK YOU JDT!!!! you are the GOAT. ( greatest of all technicians ) BAMMMMMM!
I was having the issue where my ps5 would just shut off after 10min of play with only ps5 games. I followed you video on taking my ps5 apart and cleaning the power supply and the heat sinks. Now my ps5 doesn't shut off after long periods of play. Thanks! I really appreciate your video! 👍👍👍
Awesome to hear! You’re more than welcome :)
Thanks for the video! I cleaned mine a while ago just by taking the front and back panels off. I was trying to figure out why it sounded like a jet engine when I initially turned it on, I figured it was clogged. It was a little dusty but nothing terrible so I did a quick clean. Turns out it was loud because of the vibration from the fan echoing in the entertainment center. 😂 This will help when I feel brave enough to do a deep cleaning.
Cheers brother. Couldn’t believe the amount of dust inside
Thanks Joey, my gradson had a noisy PS5 which was shutting down. Followed you steps very carefully as it's a potentially expensive learning curve, but all went well. Cannot believe the amount of dust, hairs that had built up on the large heat sinks - definately worth going through the whole process.
The ribbon cable was slightly different to the ones shown, they had a metal plate that you had to push back to release the cable. That was really awkward. The one attached to the hard drive actually snapped off when bending it back, but luckily we fitted the ribben cable back and held it place with some gaffer tape. That seemed to hold and the PS5 is now quiet and not overheating. Job done!
A great guide, our thanks .... the only expense was buying a T8Torque bit lol.
Great to hear Stephen! Thank you for using and following the guide 😊
I've worked on a few hundred PS5's now in total, and I don't think I've come across a different ribbon cable method to the ones I've shown in here. I'm sure the 1000, 1100 and 1200 series all have the same connector, in which you push down to release the ribbon cable.
Feel free to join the Discord and upload some pictures so we can take a look 😁
Ps5 started making noise so just cleaned it up thanks for the help
Great video but I have a 1200 series, and I can't find a video on how to clean it. Can you link one if you know one or make one? Your guide is easy to follow and amazing, and I was disappointed when I found out I can't use this vid
Great advice on cleaning your PS5 Joey , i do clean mine regular to keep out dust to prevent overheating
Hey man! Been having trouble for MONTHS with my PS5 shutting down randomly… I followed your whole video and gave it a great cleaning! Definitely removed a ton of dust so 🤞🤞
Let’s just say, you earned my like! And if it works as it should, I’ll be back to become a subscriber! Thanks for your help!
I use a Maketa Dust Blower and shoot air back through the exhaust. It is essentially a handheld leaf blower. I also run my consoles in a room with Air Purification, eliminates the need to deep clean my electronics.
Yes, I don't get him cleaning "hundreds of consoles" yet not using an air compressor.
If anyone is doing a lot of repairs or cleaning of electronics, I highly recommend an electric air duster. Using cans of compressed air is fine for personal use but can get expensive over time for anyone needing them frequently. Electric air dusters have higher pressure than called air.
Nice one Joey, now to do one for all the other ps5’s then onto the Series S & X.
Legend, im about to do my annual cleaning of all my tech and was worried about cleaning the PS5 especially taking the backplate off as i thought if you did that id have to deal with the liquid metal, thanks to this video im confident to give it the cleaning it deserves, thank you
I recommend a small set of needle nose pliers to pull the clips out. Pulling actual wires could result in a potentially bad connection due to the wire possibility coming out of the connector.
Outstanding video! Thank you for making this straightforward and simple!
Thanks for an actual useful no-nonsense tutorial
So what are best tools to buy to clean my ps5 mate? Thanks for the video btw
This helped so much thank you
Brilliant and easy-to-follow tutorial. Worked a treat!
I'm still kind of weary about taking my PS5 digital apart like that, but I have had it nearly 3 years and so I know I will need to do a deep clean instead of a normal clean like I have been doing every so often. I am getting the "Your PS5 is too hot" message every once in a while but it's not happening all the time and not with every game. So far it's only happened twice for me within a year. I am weary to take it to a game shop as I live in Thailand, but I might have to do that and pay for a deep clean as I watch. First I will try it myself with the help of your video.
PS5 Started taking a shit during Helldivers 2 and this cleaning method saved me from buying another one entirely. TY
Dragon's Dogma 2 says hi! It was so considerate of Crapcom to so poorly optimize their latest game that it's constantly hard-crashing PS5's across the world to the point where people are finally deciding to take them apart for a cleaning!
Thanks! This is the best video on this topic in my opinion.
Hi. Nice thorough tutorial! I have a question though. I just had a sudden shutdown while playing due to dust buildup. I did some cleaning and vacuuming the heatsinks by only removing the fan. Do you think that should be enough or do I need to disassemble everything like you did? Obviously I wasn't able to remove all dust this way
Excellent video thank you so much , beautiful demonstration
Glad it helped! Did you clean yours okay? :)
Mine is a 1215A... thanks for what you mentioned in the beginning 😅
Thanks Joey! Superior video, great presentation that is confidence inspiring!
It is recommendable to clean the liquid metal and use it a new one as same as it is done with the thermal paste of the PS4?
Thank you
Followed the video but the fan connection, you should put a serious warning ⚠️ bc mine detached it self from the motherboard but it's still connected to the metal prongs. Nearly broke my system, I dono how long this lose connection gonna last. The fan connection was extremely tight compared to its neighbors.
Great video all i need now is a PS5 to clean LMAO
Hi - this worked for me - but interestingly, all my screws inside the PS5 are TT9, not TT8. The guarantee seal was not broken, and this was bought as new, so I supposed Sony changed this??
Screwing the metal cover back to the motherboard with all the T8 screws is ruining my day. It feels like every screw wont go in straight and im stripping it and needing to use extra force.
screw backward for a turn and you might feel it go into the correct groove
Nice job ..
but you really shouldn’t need to do this , on a modern day games console… just to clean it ???
I bought the precision Torx last time by accident rather than the precision security Torx so I basically wasted my money, need to make sure I get the security one this time
When removing the metallinc heat sink, aren’t we in fact separating the microcircuits’ and other components’ thermal paste from the heat sink? I’m surprised to see that applying new thermal paste is not in the video. Fingers crossed, that this is enough! 🤞
I mostly just use a leaf blower carefully besides waste money on a can thats limited
Im having a major issue releasing one of the strips, this thing will not come off. 8:20 in the vid. This is the one thing keeping me from progressing
Update, without taking the strip you dangerously move the section and can kinda get to rows of whatever it is (I'm kinda dumb don't judge) I just air canned the shit out of it and got alot out. I'm just gonna take it to a shop👍
Great demonstration ❤❤❤❤❤
I have a problem because the bit of plastic you rip off that has all the wires underneath it is not big for me its just a little square
Nice, clear instructions - thanks.
also why the frack isn't there a tool for removing plugs? why do we always have to worry about ripping the wires from one side or braking it from the circuit board on the other?
Never cleaned my PlayStation since I got it (because I thought I would snap the sides off and break it) and now I did it’s dead quiet like how it used to be
that was a effin nightmare, but i did it! thank you so much for the video!
Hey man at 8:25 with that ribbon wire, did you have some metal clasp or attachment that made removing the ribbon cable difficult?
@@papakneegrumps1987 yeah it felt like solid metal and it hurt my fingers, but i got it off eventually with some patience.
What is the little "white tack?" board you're using to hold the screws in correct orientation and how does one go about getting or making one?
still looking for that video without the disc drive, doing the same but at a point i need to use more force than i'm comfortable with and nog guide tells me if its ok..
i’m looking this up because when i play my ps5 for a few hours my room turns into a desert idk if it needs cleaned or not
Hey Joey love ya videos bro please do a series X Xbox on this subject. thanks
What happened to the single black screw when putting back the silver screws?
Hi, if i have an ssd installed on my ps5. Do i need to do anything before this cleaning procedure to avoid damage or loss of data on the ssd?
2:20 wtf i didn't even knew it was possible!!
Does anyone have tiny pieces of metal in the middle of the screw so the T8 bit won’t fit?
I can’t get the fan screw to get if I used it on every other one and worked😢
5:58 mine don’t lift up that easy and I don’t see another screw
8:25 it's not coming out for me this part it hard to get off. And the Grey piece that was it on came off..
Excellent! Thank :You.
when I was disconnecting the fan it literally just peeled of the copper on the motherboard.
Great video but im definitely not doing this my self it would be a great way to mess up my ps5 no not doing all this
It’s not as scary as it looks - minimal to no prior experience required- just make sure you have a safe place to take it apart and securely place your screws
Hey thanks for the video! Although im having trouble on this piece at 8:15 !
Theres a small metal bar/attachment thing where im supposed to push down to release the ribbon cable.
I cant get the cabel out! 🙃
Ive come so far lol someone PLZ help!
Does doing anything like this void any kind of warranty or anything like that? I only ask because i cleaned my PS4 before and because i took it apart to clean it, no shop would buy it off me
It does when you actually temove warrenty sticker and go deep into the console i would say anything you start screwing off isa risk just take off the sideplates and clean it that way thebfirst year
Can you use a vacuum
Nice.. Err-One of the WiFi Antenna's came undone, so I hope
you realised that before you finished buttoning "Her" ?!
Err-"Him"?
No WAIT it's "It".. up.😄
APU 👁👍
Yeah this was a donor boars that I was using as a demonstration 😊
Any way you can do a series x cleaning one of these days?
Yes I'll be looking to do one soon :)
Where do i go if i have a model CFI 1216
Ello. The black antenna cable did not connect to the motherboard, just sayin' if you didn't spot it.
Yeah this console was just a donor console I threw together, so it doesn’t function anyways 😊 Very well spotted though!
Nice Video Cleaning Guide.
They put pins in the screws, i cant get them….
When I got to cleaning the fan 4:48 3 out of 4 screws came out but I couldn't get the 4th one out
Me too
I found out you don't use screwdrivers use a torx with hole to open it up @@Rafael-v2y
For anyone lazy like me, just take off the two plates and spray air on the fans and vents make sure you can hold the fan in place n spray air in a controlled manner. As long as dust is your only problem no need to disassemble anything
I'd rather just take it to someone like you cuz I'm a lazy person
Same
The four screws to take out the fan, the first one that you take out, I cannot get that one out, the other three came out perfect, I swear that screw is defective, like the middle of the head looks raised compared to the other three screws, never messed with it before. Any tips on this?
I can't take off the middle frame
Dude i seriously need help and my comments arent loading @ 8:25
Theres a piece on my ribbon cable that wont allow me to remove it. A metal bar right where im supposed to push down to release. Its not in the video and im stressing out lmao
@joeydoestech I'm hoping you see this hahah I've so far in dismantling this thing
Hey there! Feel free to join the Discord using the link in the description of the video. That way you can upload some pictures/a video to help us help you. That metal bar should be there for you to push down, but maybe something else is going on 😁😁
Thats odd!
The antenna cable was black above white 6:20, but by putting it together it was white above black 10:25
Very well spotted 😊 It’s a donor board so it was thrown together for the example video.
@@JoeyDoesTech 😅
fire 💯
Literally cannot get the second fan grating its absolutely fused
Okay I did it immediately after writing this😅
I cant take the ps5 cover off💀
I ripped off my fan wire
Why do we have to go through all this just so our PS5 wont cut off mid-game
I know! Completely agree.
😢
I’m not doing this, f that.
no thanks not doing all of that
HAHAHAHAHA repair shops as if, your talking as if all ps5 owners live in big cities man, I'm out in in a back water town with only two shops and nether of them will touch a console.
Absolute overkill. The only time you should ever get this deep in the weeds is if it isn’t working.
Completely agree, I'd honestly rather just get a can of compressed air and spray the main parts of the fan while only having to take the two big white panels off. Fuck disassembling the whole console. 😂😂😂
Security screw using fucking sony........ Phillips is just fine stick to it.
Hi, if i have an ssd installed on my ps5. Do i need to do anything before this cleaning procedure to avoid damage or loss of data on the ssd?
No
