Before watching the video I had my roommate help me with taking my system apart because he had done it to one of his systems. However we started with the top and after we couldn't figure out the rest I started the video. I think I may have accidentally unfixed the heating compound or damaged one of the ribbon cables Now my system automatically shuts off whenever I try to start a game. Please help! ;-;
I never comment on videos, but this is the best instructional RUclips video I've ever watched and deserves a thumbs up. Great details and camera work! Thank you so much
Four years later and this video has never been more helpful. Mine finally died on me after surviving one of the most intense two weeks of summer it has ever experienced. It just couldn’t take it anymore, I don’t blame it though, nearly seven years old and it is time for mine to finally be done
@@Snakeman612 well given how old my ps4 was I was already looking at newer consoles but I was gifted a ps5 relatively recently and I haven’t had any complaints since
Thank you! I managed to take off 75% of the parts, enough to clean all the gunk! It was filthy. I did this lovely task for my husband. I’m a technician so I didn’t mind. Lol.
I purchased the proper security torx bit from True Value hardware for about 15$ in a kit with a bunch of other exotic bits. I would prefer not to break the screws if I can avoid it. I had to open my original PS4 and put tape over the touch sensor for disc eject and that "fixed" my phantom disc eject with beep issues. Also I open it and clean out the fan with canned compressed air. But I never took out the power supply when I did that, I will take it out next time I clean it. I bet there is a lot of dust bunnies deep in there ! Thanks for posting this video.
The screws on the back are security torx. I used a small flat blade screwdriver to break the middle security bit out then just used normal torx bit to remove screws.
I just got my roomies PS4 not too long ago and it was slow and loud and I figured it really needed a cleaning so I got the set to take it apart and came here and followed this video and low and behold it was super caked in dust. Great video and much appreciated. Thank you!
They can't actually void the warrenty of the counsol for opining it, under the warrenty act says they have to prove you damaged it in order to refuse to warrenty it or they have to fix it!
Great step by step video dosn't seem rushed just straight to the point. this worked great for my PS4 fan replacement. And the other video didn't mention anything about thermal compound thanks👍
Dude thank you so much for posting this I haven't been able to figure out how to get inside my PS to clean it properly and after this video I was able to get inside it and clean it. Turns out my fan was so caked with dust you couldn't even see the fan. You are a life saver.
I am late as hell to this party but i just finished putting mine back together after watching your tutorial. and then watching it in reverse because other reassembly videos weren't as detailed :) thank you!! :)
You can barely tell my son's ps5 is on. His ps4 sounded like a jet. Did everything here except the motherboard. Since there is no separate fan on the heatsink, I saw no need to remove it. Now it sounds great. Thanks 4 the video.
@@TheJsaroukos+ Don't lie, my friend won a Xbox series x from a quiz and i bought the PS5 with the discdrive. We compared the consoles while playing Red Dead 2. Both were on the same tv top vertically. We played for 2 hours and tested the heat and how loud they were. The Xbox series x was louder because the fan is located right by the top holes and the fan is the same size as in the PS4 slim so the PS5 was quieter. For heat both were the same temperature but Xbox was little warmer because of its super compact design (the components are packed into a ball and that's not a good thing). The PS5 was cooler thanks to its larger heatsinks and liquid metal (not to be confused with the thermal paste)
Dude thank you so much. I just did everything you showed. I mean i went as far as taking the power supply off and blowing it out. Works like new. Good job!
TO ANYONE WHO WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE BOTTOM COVER: i couldn't get it open either for like 35 minutes then i realized my model (CUH 115A) is a bit different and had two more sticker seals on the bottom that had screws under, these stickers were harder to get off and i needed to scrape at them with tweezers, got those screws out and was able to pop the bottom cover off in 10 seconds
Please be carefull with removing the security bits of the security torks I cut my finger real deep against the part of the harddrive that's sticking out by trying to break it with a flathead screwdriver.
If it’s not giving then that means there’s a screw left somewhere. Chances are you had a different model or has a model that was made in a different year. Just scour the surface till you find the last screw :)
Thanks. I did this Today(Cleaning fan and changed thermal paste), and my ps4 is super quiet now. I can play games with no worries 😉. I just had to watch backwards to reassemble. :)
@@legin3753 it depends, but usually the fan isn't the problem, you've got two options, either clean it from dust and clean the radiator -which isn't shown in the video- or replace the thermal paste if the console is old, use any known brand thermal paste with 8 w/mk and above, and you can even use thermal pads from grizzly but it's a bit harder to apply.
Dude thank you so much! My kid put paper in the disk tray and nothing would play! Was able to take apart, flip the disk drive and say the piece of Hatchimals paper and get it out with tweezers. Again, thank you! I woulda been nervous doing this without someone showing me
Thank you for this! I wasn't able to take the motherboard out, but I was able to get to the ps4 fan a lot easier to clean it the best I could. It's my daughter's ps4 and I couldn't stand the fan sound any longer. It's silent now, and even quieter than my ps4 pro. I'm shocked! I will have to clean the fan on the pro now🤣
Thankyou so much for this tutorial! I disassembled, cleaned out and reassembled my PS4 with ease. Still sounds like a plane taking off, but it’s clean! Ps you have a very pleasing to the ears accent ;)
Modded Warfare I appreciate your existence ! I watch your channel for everything gaming related and you've made me out to be a genius amongst my friends and clients here in CPT South Africa so thank you for this. You are by far the best Technology teacher ever on youtube , with every step , I understand everything being shown and/or taught to me , so 1000% for clarity or to say the ability to make others understand , Dont quit , just keep on keeping on!
Great video, used only as a back up guide. Took it apart just by looking and being careful. Put it back together using your guide and realised. 3 screws left over. You did not cover the 3 screws holding the blu Ray in place they are torque ones. Also I went further and took the fan out complete and and the last plate to give the heat sink and fan a proper clean too. Thank you for this video.
10/10 teardown best one I've seen for the PS4, If you feel like cringing go watch Adams Tested teardown of the PS4. Knowledgable tutorial, thank you again
Make sure you know what screws go where otherwise you will be left with a bunch of holes and screws with no idea which screws go into what holes. I will be using a colour system with pens and making sure I separate the screws with each part they go with. I say this because my ps3 fat, and slim have both needed a cleaning and I've had this problem before.
This guy makes it seem so easy. I've got so many flat head screwdrivers yet can't for get life of me even get the top piece off of the fan side. My shit needs to be cleaned so fucking badly and I'm just stuck not being able to do it.
Help! All the video's show how you remove 3 screws, one in the middle and two on each side. But mine only has the middle screws, there are none on the side and I can't open it up because it's stuck on the sides...
This video gave me all necessary information on how to open it up, good work. What you can add is, that the heat sink is not made of aluminum, cause my reason for opening it is to apply liquid metal thermal paste. Needed to do research for that.
thanks, with this video I was able to disassemble a friends ps4 to discover why it no longer powered on, turns out his place is infested with roaches and one of them short circutied the power supply, I had to replace that part for this friend and now it powers on.
Man, at least let people know that you can strip the head on those torque screws and proper care while disassembling the console. EDIT: Watch Ben Hecks video, he is far more careful and explanatory.
Thank you! My HDMI OUT port got damaged after a console fall. I was going to take out mother board but don’t have to tools to solder on a new port, nor any thermal compound. I stopped halfway and watched you video. Glad I did. I found this is a very common repair that I could have fixed for less than $50. Thanks again!
David Grasty I paid someone. Actually cost me $132.00! I could have bought a used PS4 for about the same price! I looked up “ PS4 repairs” in the search engine.
At 3:38 of the video it shows 3 screws to take that panel off my version only has one screw on the bottom. What does that mean and how do I take it off because there are no more screws but it still won't come off. If anyone knows I'd appreciate the help
ATTENTION: DO NOT DISCONNECT THE DVD DRIVE OR TAKE OUT ANY CONNECTORS OR RIBBONS. THE OUTCOME WILL LIKELY RESULT IN THE PS4 NO LONGER BE ABLE TO UPDATE AND PROCESS DISKS.
Thats only if you pull the ribbon straight out. There’s a little eject latch/button that you need to press down before you can take the ribbon cable out. If you just pull it straigbt out, you will damage the cable
I put together my PS4 and the disk drive won't take my disks at all I need help. 8:11 I noticed that on mine on the edges of that cable, the tiny corner tips on the blue part of the cable broke off.Im not sure if that's the reason why my it won't take my disks Someone help
Dylan Harwood chances are you didn't open it correctly and messed up one of the ribbon cables. when you take the bottom off it's kind of loose so I don't blame you for messing it up. There's also another loose cable that's black so I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't notice that and messed it up.
Thanks for the teardown guide. I really like the design of the PS4, as it appears more accessible for easy replacing psu, blu ray, hard disk compared to the ugly PS5
I would assume you would have to solder it back on but I have no soldering skills and the nearest electronic store near me is 2 hours away so I just bought a PS4 pro instead. I hope you get yours fixed
Peter Dudás make sure u are watching the correct tutorial for ps4 can be the ps4 slim it only have one screew on the back by the aux hdmi and lan the screw is right by the lan, if it is the slim is more complicated than the regular ps4 ..

MODDED WARFARE witch torx driver do you use
I did do it now once it's all back reassembled the Ps4 starts but when ever I start a game it says ps4 overheating and it switches off
I wish every disassembly video was well explained like this one. You deserve an award for clarity.
He did win something though. Award would've been nice but a clean new PS4 isn't 2 bad.

DO NOT just yank the ribbon cable out @8:11 There is a latch that you need to press to remove without breaking. $12 for a new one.

My ps was constantly turning off it wasn't even getting overheated... This made my ps work again thank you
The screws on the back of mine require some kind of special star screwdriver, they are not just regular screws.
Shane you need to break the security bit (the small piece of metal in the middle)
Shane Torx t8 security screwdriver
I didn't have one so I opened the screws with a knife lol
I'm having the same problem as Shane. How do you break those security bits?
you can use a flathead for those, use a little force and then you'll be able to remove them. once you get used to it, it's simple.
J W i kept using a small flat head was really hard
Thank you for the tutorial! I had some issues with my disc drive so this really helped.
I opened mine to see if there were any roaches, there weren't many plus I cleaned out my fan still works fine thanks man👍
Wtf
I am literally here to get past those shitty security screws. Thanks you for showing this life hack that's actually useful.
Most helpful video I have found, I wouldn't have been able to put my sons back together without this video! Thanks so much!
My PS4 was going into rest mode and turning back on, so thanks to you I opened mine and cleaned it WELL🤢 and its good now🙏
By u cleaning it the rest mode went away? Having issues with my son's console going into rest mode!
well hopefully my ps5 dosn’t sound like a boeing 747
Lol my Xbox series X doesn’t do that xD
You seen the fan on that shit it’s 4x bigger than the ps4
You can barely tell my son's ps5 is on. His ps4 sounded like a jet. Did everything here except the motherboard. Since there is no separate fan on the heatsink, I saw no need to remove it. Now it sounds great. Thanks 4 the video.
The fan is much larger than in the PS4. And don't put the console into a small place or it will collect a lot of dust and breath in warm air.

ATTENTION: DO NOT DISCONNECT THE DVD DRIVE OR TAKE OUT ANY CONNECTORS OR RIBBONS. THE OUTCOME WILL LIKELY RESULT IN THE PS4 NO LONGER BE ABLE TO UPDATE AND PROCESS DISKS.
Thats only if you pull the ribbon straight out. There’s a little eject latch/button that you need to press down before you can take the ribbon cable out. If you just pull it straigbt out, you will damage the cable
My Dad Beats Me he didn’t mention that
Piztols YT that’s true. But taking out the ribbon cable the right way wont make the ps4 not be able to read the discs anymore. Thats all :)

Thank you so much! I opened my shit up and cleaned it. Purrs like a kitten now 🐱
6 years later still educating us plebs
I put together my PS4 and the disk drive won't take my disks at all I need help.
8:11 I noticed that on mine on the edges of that cable, the tiny corner tips on the blue part of the cable broke off.Im not sure if that's the reason why my it won't take my disks
Someone help
OpTic Jesus Christ FaZe that's a ribbon cable. try sticking it back in. it probably came loose. if not then buy a new drive.
OpTic Jesus Christ FaZe that's exactly what happened to mine. Did you find a fix for it??
Dylan Harwood chances are you didn't open it correctly and messed up one of the ribbon cables. when you take the bottom off it's kind of loose so I don't blame you for messing it up. There's also another loose cable that's black so I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't notice that and messed it up.
Yeah I figured out that that's what I messed up. Bought a new ribbon cable and an waiting for it to get here.
this guy clearly just rips them right the fuck out. no wonder why everyone broke the cable following this video. lol
Thanks for the teardown guide. I really like the design of the PS4, as it appears more accessible for easy replacing psu, blu ray, hard disk compared to the ugly PS5
how to put it back together

Cheers mate this worked a treat my PS4 has gone from 747 plane to Ninja assassin real quick
12:44 I pulled it and ripped it straight off the motherboard now ps4 won’t stay on. Great.
zakkattack316 -_- Do you know how to fix that
I would assume you would have to solder it back on but I have no soldering skills and the nearest electronic store near me is 2 hours away so I just bought a PS4 pro instead. I hope you get yours fixed
zakkattack316 -_- thanks I think I figured it out just hope it works
I understand this was many years ago, but thank you my friend
I dont have screws on the sides
Whyyyy
Peter Dudás make sure u are watching the correct tutorial for ps4 can be the ps4 slim it only have one screew on the back by the aux hdmi and lan the screw is right by the lan, if it is the slim is more complicated than the regular ps4 ..
Can you make a video on how to resolve N-32046-5 Error. I can't for the life of it understand what it written on Google its so technical.
