PS4 Persistent White Light of Death (WLOD): Bad Pin 13 Resistor + Encoder IC Trolling
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2016
- Welcome!
In this video we take a look at this PS4 with a persistent White Light of Death (WLOD). User replaced his HDMI port and Encoder IC to find he still had no display output. I replaced his Encoder for a supposedly 'known good' part as the replacement was badly shorted internally. Then I get to work...
We find a bad resistor on the Pin 13 circuit but we still don't get the expected results we're after once we've replaced it. Maybe that Encoder isn't as good as we were led to believe...
Do we get it working again? You'll have to wait until the end ;-)

AWESOME video Andrew, and I think that by you taking the time and trouble to put this video together you've possibly solved the problem I'm having with the "persistant WLOD" PS4 board I spoke to you about a little while ago, so, many many thanks mate, and keep up the good work! (",)
Cheers mate. Hopefully you'll have the same result as I afterwards - a working PS4! :-)
I now have the exact same issue with a SP4 here, bad resistor and I think the encoder IC is also dead. This is my first one with this issue. And as always, great video!
EXCELLENT JOB! bud your not only a smart guy but also a patient one.
Thank you :-)
I appreciate how thorough you are in your videos. too bad you didn't live close to me in Texas and I could have you just fix mine lol😊
Cheers mate.
@@AndrewPaul how much does an HDMI ic replacement repair cost
Great vid dude! Thanks for posting. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for being very detailed! This is a big help.
Colega que grande ojala pudiera hacer lo que tu con esos aparatos y tener lo.necesario tambien todo es aprender y viendo a gente como tu se aprende indiferentemente del idioma que hables un saludo un abrazo y sigue asi maquina!!!
Great Video Paul. keep them coming
Cheers mate! :-)
+Andrew Paul May i send my ps4 to you HDMI port i'll pay $160
Great video very helpful. I am reading OL on my pin 13 resistor as well. I really wished I knew the value of it though because I don't have a ps4 parts board. I have some old ps3 parts I hope I can find one on?
New subscriber ... many thanks for the information you provide. Quick question ... the diodes right behind the hdmi port of a PS4, any specs on them?? We do port repairs here, I've had a few come in with them missing. Would be nice to have the correct ones on hand. I know the resistors are 2kohm. But no idea what diodes are needed. Someone said VDZT2R5.6B is a good replacement. Can you confirm?
I lift them from scrap boards to be honest - got quite a supply so never bought any.
You seem like something that might be able to understand my issue. I recently bought a secondhand PS4, it was said to be working perfectly so I assume it was working that way until I received it. My first boot of the console I was greeted with a constant pulsing blue light, I assumed it was a HDMI cable fault or even my monitor I was using, I swapped with others. After a few reboots I did get the console to work on my monitor so I ruled out that as the issue. So while it was working, I played with a few things and opened a game. Then back came the pulsing blue light. After a few more tries again, I finally got the console to boot normally. I changed a few settings, accounts and so on, then tried to enter the Playstation Store, then back came the Blue Pulsing. After that, it wouldn't start up at all. I have tried many different methods none seem to work or offer any solution. So if you have an answer it would be great appreciated
Pull the hard drive and see if it starts to the 'cannot start PS4' message consistently. If it does, replace the disk. If not then it sounds like APU issues. Possibly one of the rare occasions where a reball will most likely fix the constant pulsing blue light. Cheers.
Just Awesome ..keep up good work
wow Andrew Paul this was a gr8 video like trying to fix thing but I have never try anything like a ps4 I have fix a few xbox ones and xbox 360 but not ps4 yet
Cheers mate.
Hi Andrew, I am not sure if you remember me. I had a ps4 with no video output and I had changed the hdmi port and the encoder on it. But the problem the problem was not solved. Today after months I was able to fix it. Somehow three of the diodes were shorted and conducting in both directions. I changed all of them with a donor board and now it works :).
Hi dear, can you give me the refereces of the diodes you have changed? I find them nowhere
think you for your help
Nice video Paul, just one question . What is the value of the resistance you replaced ? I'M going to look for it on my Xbox 360 spare parts
seems to be a 26k ohms resistor
I can't seem to get the ground pin holes clear on the board in order to install the new HDMI port, I'm using amtech flux & MG chemicals super wick with my iron at 850 and the wick gets stuck to the board when trying to wick up the solder in the holes.
Andrew
My PS4 beeps when I press it on once then the second it beeps and light come on for 2 seconds what do I do? Can I send it you ,UK
Nice repair mate big thumbs up
hi dear, I need your help, please I would like the reference of the diodes and resistor for the hdmi, to be able to buy, thank you
The resistor seen with the defect on my board has 26k of resistance, should be replaced?
great work
Thank you :-)
great work again! where are you finding the appropriate values for resistance? I've searched for a schematic
Sadly no schematics are available anywhere aside from in Sony's hardware engineers' vaults. Nobody has yet leaked them but oh do I wish they would!
Currently all we can do is utilize boards with known working circuits and compare component values from these boards against the faulty ones in an attempt to locate the problem.
You certainly have patience.
I just like sticking it to Sony - we don't need your schematics lol! :-)
N.B. **though we would like them** ;-)
Looks like this is same as what's happened to mine, I'm getting zero reading both ways on that resistor, the one just above it I get readings as though it was good so I shall try a donor board to fix it.
You are awesome ! I have some questions :
we can kill the encoder IC with the hot air ?
Where you purchased the component ? Pin 13 resistor ?
Thanks for your good job :)
Hi, yes it's possible to kill it with hot air if you're too rough with it. The resistor came from a donor motherboard - no purchase necessary.
Ok thank you.
and if we have no other motherboard, you know where to buy its component..?
Mouser, RS, Farnell, Element14 etc etc will all have them. Easier to lift them from a donor though.
Andrew Paul
Hello thanks for all your great videos I have an issue after replacing the hdmi port and encoder i get OL on my multimeter with probes in both directions even after removing the encoder again I tried replacing the resistor I pulled from a donor board that had a 1v reading and when I replaced it behind the diode I got OL reading with the replacement resistor and suggestions why I still get that reading any advice would be greatly appreciated
The continuity test that produces an audible tone requires the resistance to be lower than a certain value, about 20 ohms and that resistor after / before the diode has 26,7k ohms, so that's your multimeter does a problem. Read the instructions for the continuity meter and do not expect it to beep when you are measuring a resistance that is higher than the range it is supposed to beep for.
The Fluke meter that Andrew have, which is a high quality brand in N.A. has two functions on the continuity test.
One: Is as a continuity tester that buzzes if res. is < 25Ω and shuts off if over >250Ω.
Two: Testing semiconductor or Diode, it will show 2.4v in the fwd direction and OL in the reverse, if diode is shorted, then it shows
Hello, I have a doubt, my ps4 when it lights presents the PlayStation logo does not return to give video and is left with the light in white.
I want to know if it is HDMI Video Output IC MN86471A Chip for Playstation 4 that needs to replace or only the HDMI port.
great work!!!
Thank you :-)
I've got a ps4 thats completely dead, no power, lights or beeps. I've tested the power supply and i am getting 5v and 12v so thats fine. any thoughts ?
Cheers! Great video done well.. I recently picked up a PS4 with "no signal" I've tried all the typical problem solving different TV different cable etc. all to no avail. Right away would it be best to test for continuity on the HDMI port? I'm an engineering student so I've got some skills with trouble shooting, soldering and multi-meter use. I'd like to see it I can do the repair myself. Any guidance would be appreciated
Greetings from the USA
Jimmy
Definitely the way to go first of all if the port has no signs of visual damage. If it checks out fine it's likely to be a failed Encoder IC.
Hi Andrew I was wondering if u could please give me some advice? I have a ps4 with the white light. Just below the hdmi port on the left side there are two resistors. The closer one to the hdmi port has blown off and a previous repairer has bridge them. Firstly would that work? Secondly if not do you know the value of it many thanks lee.
Hey... love your vids. ..Im having an issue with that resistor @ 10:45 in your video. I get a reading of 1.033 even when i put the Positive probe on the left of the resistor and vise-versa. What could be the issue? Help Please
Could a bad encoder IC cause that resistor to be OL in diode mode? I've got a PS4 here with these exact symptoms. Resistor reads OL, and I tried replacing it with a donor but still reading OL. I already replaced the encoder IC, but I suspect it may be a defective chip since the resistor is still OL. Either way I'm going to try replacing the IC again, but I just wanted to get an idea if I'm on the right track with that resistor. If a bad ic could pull it down (or up? You know what I mean), that would be useful to know for future diagnostics.
Thank you I found it.
Hey your vids are very helpful thanks. Just wondering if you know what diodes the 3 little ones to left of of the larger pin13 one on the hdmi socket side. Looks like the furtherest away 2 from hdmi socket are open and first one leaky? Reads as diode both ways???
Indeed - use these for replacements:
ROHM Zener Diode, 5.6V 100 mW SMT 2-Pin SOD-723
Thank you so much your a life saver.
Also think i got an open coil near the hdmi one of the 4 any idea what value they are or should i just link it through.
Had lots of shorts on smd caps on bottom side of board under hdmi chip removed hdmi ic they went away. So got hdmi ic on order too.
The previous owner butchered the blu ray drive whole top mech missing. Luckily still got bluray drive board.
Any idea which blu ray mech / drive supposed to be in cuh-1102a with bdp-025 blu ray drive board with sab-001 main board.
Do the ps4s still boot up without a blu ray connected?
Thanks sorry for all the questions
Hi. 650 ohm resistor is the one that would have to be? or what is the real value of sony. I have the same error on my PS4 and also ordered the HDMI driver. Greetings.
i have a ps4 slim the caps all around apu are shorted and some other resistors on the board are gone all i get is a beep 1sec blue light and off.
Is there any chance that just the HDMI port is bad if I don't see any bent pins inside the connector, and all the pins soldered to the motherboard look good?
Hi Andrew what brand and type of microscope do you recommend? any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hi, mine is an Amscope SM-4TPZFRL. This video was shot with the bundled 3MP USB camera but I have since upgraded to a HDMI camera as an aftermarket upgrade which can be seen in the later videos - the capture device it's plugged into and RUclips encoding doesn't do the image quality justice sadly.
hey andrew. thx for the video. i have a ps4 saa-001 here with static snow/no picture and sound at all. i changed the port 3 times now with a new hdmi ports. but still have the same problem. i have done over 20 hdmi replacments and its now a "10 minute job" for me. everything is soldered perfectly. do i have just bad luck and all of the 3 new hdmi ports where fulty in a row, or could something else be faulty. normaly when an hdmiport is faulty i get flickering and static slow, but no permanent static snow.
+Kaan T It'll be an encoder IC failure.
good job +Andrew Paul, do known what's was the resistor value ? I have kind of same issue, resistor open and Blue LOD, I will change the encoder IC (ordered already)
I did measure it a good while back but cannot find the post. If I think on next time I'm with a board I'll check it out.
I manage to found it on a working one and it's a 26K resistor
Hi Andrew i have changed the hdmi ic and the resistor butt still no 1.070 v what you are measuring is there anything else that i have to check can you give some advice the port is new all the pins are good still having wlod
Would it be acceptable to bypass a bad resistor with solder blob between the 2 pads?
great paul thanks for uploading this video paul if u dont mind can u tell me which microscop u r using and if u tell me the name.model no.plz i wanna buy the same.one
Sure thing - it's an Amscope SM-4TPZ-FRL-3M. Excellent piece of equipment and I very highly recommend it!
I'm currently upgrading the 3MP camera it ships with for a 1080p HDMI model so image quality and frame rate should be dramatically improved in a few weeks time hopefully!
Hola. Buenas , me sabrías decir que componentes son los de la foto de los puntos alternativos arriba a la izquierda del conector hdmi de color verde uno tiene el 16 mi placa los tiene quitados y los diodos negros los tengo localizado pero esos dos no sé qué son. Y si me pudieses decir también cuál es el resistor que cambias sería ideal. Las especificaciones del resistor me refiero. Un saludo y mil gracias de antemano. Excelente trabajo!!!
I have recently ran into the same white light and I've got mine taking apart right now but the HDMI port/pins look perfectly fine. now it appears that I'm running into a completely different monster than I was expecting. 😢
Most probably an Encoder IC failure - to be honest that's what most end up being.
Andrew Paul guess thats my next test
good night andrew, a question, the resistor of pin 13 of a ps4 fat what value does it have? Regards!
Sos muy bueno te hago una consulta la.mia tiene la luz blanca y no da imagen que podrá ser es una Slim gracias desde argentina
Hello Brother, can you do ps4 pro white light of death. I changed the encoder ic and hdmi, it displays nothing.
hello my friend good job 👍can you help me and answer a question? I lost an SMD component when replacing the HDMI socket. It sits directly near the HDMI jack ... there are two components .... a 2,6uf capacitor and a diode, can you tell me what that is for a diode?
Is this the one linked to pin 18 on an SAA/SAB board?
The diode sits alone in community with the condenser seen from the front on the right side just above the HDMI jack
so im repairing a friends hdmi port , found it had a 1 of the 4 filter by the controller IC bad . and put that on order (this part number DLW21SN900HQ2L). but i also found that the same resistor that you mention here as bad. while trying to find the value of the resistor i found your video. i was wondering if you knew the value of the resistor so i can order it . i do not have a donor board. thanks
it is 2k ohm
Thanks ....Andrew Paul
You're welcome :-)
do u have a video on how to fix a console where the blue light just pulses and it wont go into safe mode it just turns off if u hold the power button down. everything i see for it says hdmi and hd but both of those r fine ive changed or checked both and they are fine. even changed power supply to no avail any ideas?
It's not a happy answer - don't waste your time on it but see here:
ruclips.net/video/0T2-iCBhkuQ/видео.html
hi Bro my ps4 no beep no power i replace power supple still no power i think my board need repair do u have any idea whats problem ...?
Hi, what's the value of the resistor?
so if my console turns on white and new hdmi put infor me for £60 local and sent it back to me not working! what do you suggest to me please Andrew?
I have same problem as you had, no picture, changed hdmi port, IC, and that rezistor have 27k when I pull it out , but so far In Diode test and attacted in the board it would not give me 1.5 Volts, its just infinite. Can you advise ?
Same problem
Did u fine the solution
Hi
My nephews PS4 HDMI port was ‘fixed’ by a cowboy from Nottingham. When it was returned it would only turn on via the controller, still no picture and no power beep.
Having inspected myself the HDMI looks ok but the piezo speaker is melted and the power switch has been soldered?? There is still no picture and still a solid white light. Can you look at it please?
Hi, if you drop me an email to ytandrewpaul@outlook.com I'll send you the info over to mail it in for inspection. Cheers.
Hi what cost would repair be.
Ive just turned mine on today , had fuzzy screen . Then it went blank with white light.
The hd port looks fine but you never know.
I was goin to replace the port myself so opened it and port looked fine. So put back together. Hope you can help
Thank you
Hi Gavin,
Just sent you an email back bud, many thanks.
Buenas tardes, ¿que valores tiene la resistencia que cambias? ¿Es una 2k 650R? Gracias. Un saludooo
I have a working PS4, except that the power and eject buttons are broken.
What's the resistor value? I think I have the same problem.
I hate to ask this, but would you happen to know the value of the Zener diode on pin 15 on the HDMI port? I've done some googling and it seems that you can either use one diode from the PS3 or a different one that is also mentioned in the same post. My issue is that they have widely different Zener Voltage values.
So any help would be appreciated and I apologize for asking this on your video that covers pin 13. (And very nicely I might add. ;) )
Thank you.
I'm not sure from the top of my head but I will check if I remember next time I'm near a board.
Can't ask for more than that. Thank you.
Hi, I also have a bed resistor on Pin 13. My multimeter show value 0, what kind of resistor is it or what value I have to buy?
Hi,
In continuity mode does the resistor show continuity to ground both sides? Does the right-hand pin of the Pin 13 diode show continuity to ground at all? It's unusual for this resistor to go bad so it's likely something else is pulling the value low. If the above is true then remove the Encoder IC and see if the values start to read normally. If they do, replace the IC.
I messed up the other one next to hdmi don't know how to get another one
I have a similar issue
When using the multi meter what do you test for and what are the results to be expected ?
That is shown towards the end of the video - test is in diode mode.
how can i test the diode and the resistor
under the hdmi port if its good?
Usually the diode shorts to ground and is generally caused by a bad Encoder IC. I've not seen the diode itself actually fail as yet.
In circuit the resistor measures approx. 26kohms on good boards.
Can you suggest a good soldering iron for a beginner? I'd like to start tinkering with some old XB1 boards and stuff I've got.
Start off with the right tools mate and the rest will follow. I use a Jovy iSolder 40 with a range of Hakko T14 tips and highly recommend it.
Andrew Paul I have all the tools I need. I'm just cautious of soldering irons as I don't want to buy a dud and it end up exploding in my face lol
Hello My Gold friend , I have ps4 pro, nva-001 . I bought it used, it had WLOD, there was hdmi port replaced. I replaced that IC chip from panasonic (hdmi chip) but still got no video on my tv. can you help me what to do? I swapped it from ps4 slim that ic chip, no help. than I replaced that one with new IC chip, still no help. can you tell me how to act?
Hello,
at 3:15 , what product are you using to remove the green protection on copper please?
That would be a fibreglass pencil
Andrew Paul ok thank you so much
could you have replaced the resistor with one of a different physical size but of equivalent value ? if you didn't have a donor board for example.. and would you just do a resistance test on similar resistors on the board to get the resistance value required?
Yes you could indeed do that - remember that for best practice you should remove the resistor from circuit to measure it unless the value is definitively known from a schematic diagram etc.
+Andrew Paul no chance getting schematics off Sony though lol. thanks for replying. and thank you for your videos..very informative and usefull
Hi, Andrew. Nice videos! Very didatic and helpful. Just one doubt: do you know what is the size and/or encapsulation code of this resistor at Pin13? I've heard it's a 26k ohms resistor, but I don't know what is the right encap code (0603, 0805?). Thank you anyway and keep going!
Defo smaller than 0805, I'd try 0603.
Andrew Paul Thanks, buddy!
hello andrew i would like some help on my xbox one had a soda spilt on top ive disassembled from your videos just need help figuring out what to do to get it turned back on will not turn on
Well first off you'll need to ascertain what you have and what you don't so head to my Xbox one light of death video and find the standby voltages diagram in the description. Test all the points and see which voltages you have and which you don't with a multimeter and go from there. If it went near any BGA then these will need lifting.
Also any places which have corrosion / obvious spill damage will need rework.
Hi you could say what is the value of the diode resistor to my mark 25kohm is good or damaged
Was the value of resistor correct ??. 25K.
alfredo robert I am reading 25k ohm on mine too. but I am reading OL on diode test. I wished I knew the value in ohms.
What is the value of resistor?
Can someone fix it? I am reading 27K ohm also I replaced it but Im getting OL on diode test.
Why didn't you measure the value of the replacement resistor? Not everyone has a junked PS4 motherboard that they can pinch components from.
where can i find those replacements?
great vid but atess show them where to use heat resistance tape you know there many people who look at youtube for advice and many are first timer not to look down on them no heat resister they might dmg other components
How much does this cost? I have the exact same problem
I have a ps4 that dis color when play a game in disk drive does any one know what is wrong with it
hi, i have a ps4, and in the pin 13 I have short to ground, already remove diode and still continue on the socket side, any suggestions?
ruclips.net/video/8Gi6B-uatuc/видео.html
thank so much!! :)
OKI I've recently replaced my PS4's HDMI port. All the pins are lined up and connected to the pads on the motherboard. I've tested all the resistors and ECT. for continuity and they all check out. The problem is that while I was cleaning it the, I've heard you call them in other videos, video output filters broke off. Two of those four little capitors under the Encoder IC chip are junk and the other two probably are far behind them. So what do I type into the internet search engine to order more? PS4 video output filters? PS4 HDMI Encoder video output filters? Both of these searches have failed. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think someone once said they used these:
DLW21SN900HQ2L
There are 3 diodes missing next to my ic chip does anyone know where to get them and what voltage they are?
Which board is this on? Do you have a photo of the board with the missing components on at all? If it's an SAA/SAB-001 as per the video, there aren't any diodes around the Encoder IC on those particular boards - just resistors, capacitors and some common mode chokes.
hola la verdad no lo se pregunte a andrew pero no respodio para mi es ese el problema si es un diodo zenner deveria tener un resistor mas bajo creo pero no se el valor exacto y no tengo otra ps4 para comparar si alguno sabe desde ya gracias
@Andrew Paul please can you tell me what is the value of the resistor?
It's 27kohms IIRC
@@AndrewPaul thanks!
Ok Im getting frustrated. I am using a brand new IC. My resistor reads OL. I tried 2 other boards both with working video, yet pun 13 resistor reads OL. Sooooo what am I missing???
Check the HDMI port for visible damage and loose pins. Check the new IC for bridging / loose pins. Check EMI filters for continuity across the two coils and for cross-continuity. If you find one of the coils is bad, replace that filter. If you have cross-continuity, replace the filter. Check TH2001 for continuity - if it's open, replace it. Check the larger caps behind the HDMI port - they should be 10uF. If they're out of spec, replace them along with the 3/4 voltage regulators within the circuit.
Another daft one - check the orientation of the diodes. If this is a machine which has been previously repaired, you can find that people often blow them off the board and replace them in reverse orientation. The line on the diode should mate with a small 'dot' printed on the board by each diode site. If they're reversed, switch them around.
Good luck!
Hi @@AndrewPaul , Im getting the same issue, im getting 0.542v on diode mode in 13rd pin but the resistor next to diode is reading OL, I replaced it and also checks ohms value of that resistance out of the board and it has 27K ohm so I think it's good, I checked filters like you test it in other videos and all are good, I replaced HMDI encoder. Do you know where have connection resistance and the cathode of the diode? I tested all but I couldn't find the error and I don't have a good board to comparate values. Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my bad English but I'm learning it.
wich is the resistor value?
Any chance I could still send you mine to be fixed for this issue? I live in UK
Hi,
Yes if you drop me a message on:
ytandrewpaul@outlook.com
I can send you some details over etc for mail-in addresses etc. Many thanks.
I did it!!! I replaced an encoder IC!!!!!!!!!
How long did it take?
@@melodolic9908 not l long after I got the sheild off. Less than 10 minitues. You don't want to use heat on the motherboard too long. just turn your heat gun up too 485 Celcious but not the fan. You don't want to use too much air flow because you'll blow off the components around the Encoder IC. You'll to use fairly low air flow but get the gun close to the Encoder IC to heat the tines. WAIT to touch the Encoder IC untill the tines and pads are shinny THEN JUST barely tap the IC to see if it moves if it doesn't then it needs more time to heat up DON"T TRY TO JUST LIFT IT OFF!! You'll pull the pads if you don't wait until the solder is soft. If you REALLY GENTLY tap it and it moves ONLY THEN can you lift it safely.
@@ryanlawrence8979 so you just heat up the solder on the encoder and push it down ?
hello
I have WLOD and I replaced my HDMI port but still nothing. So I pulled it back down to check everything out and a video filter fell off. What should I do? Do you work on them for people?
If you've got the filter then you can try and reattach it. I do work on them but it depends where you're based.
Do you know what ohms that resistor is?
Any chance I will find same diode on PS3 super slim motherboard?
Possibly so - HDMI is HDMI. Take a look at pin 13 (CEC) and trace it back to see if it's there.
how di repair
You are truly awesome!!, I´ve got a WLOD issue pretty odd, I turn on my PS4 and at the beginning everything is ok, the ps4 LOGO appears on screen, I can play a game for a while, but suddenly (about 5min) the video signal disappear and I can´t see anything on screen anymore, it´s like something is overheating inside my console, I really don´t know what is going on. Can you help me to find a solution for this issue. Thanks in advance.
Those I've seen with this issue have been on-set of APU problems.
I forgot something (Sorry), the screen of my tv is black but the console works fine, if I put my psvita via remote play I can still play games with my ps4. The only thing is that the video signal disappear but the console works properly. What can cause this Video issue?
+heckran1 In that instance of say you've got a bad HDMI Encoder IC or an issue on the circuit which controls it.
HDMI port and Encoder IC how much did that cost him?
do u have any solution for ps4 1 tb pulsing blod ?
Good luck!

what does ol really mean, open line, over limit, open loop i dont know
OL = Open Line
@@AndrewPaul made a searxh ifixit says open loop, sorin says over limit so it depends on the person 😅
do you have resistor value?
hey man, i am struggling with one ps4 WLOD changed the broken port and the HDMI IC chip but still no display. there is some short on 2 big caps and this short on 2 big caps is there no matter ic chip is there or not. i can't really figure out the issue, so i need your email id to send you photos to get some help.
Have you removed the two affected caps to see if the short disappears? If it does replace these caps with ones from a donor. If not, put them back and follow the circuit backwards until you find which component is at fault.
can u video showing a power supply repair for the ps4 with no power
If I ever get one I will do.
thank andrew u the best did u repair one before can u help me
Strange problem for me . I replaced an hdmi port totally broken . The ps4 now it's working but the video output is not working at 1080p , but working on 480p 720p and 1080i . Could this strange problem be due to the encoder? I tried on 2 tv that are accepting 1080p
Definitely encoder :)
@@AndrewPaul yes now I'm sure because also one side of a filter was blown . My customer said that he will play at 1080i ... So no problem . After bypassing the filter I get signal at 1080p but it's all fog and full color screens (red green and don't remember) so it should be the encoder . Also the board developed a strange problem that I couldn't isolate , and It's not surely due to my work . New hdmi port perfectly soldered , no OL , no shorts to ground only works half disassembled in ps4 . If I reassembled the board I have to flex it to make it work due to a false contact that I couldn't find . I solved this by flexing the board with a plastic spacer . Customer accepted to play @1080i and not remove hdmi anymore , elsewhere an aftermarket ps4 would be cheaper than fixing everything
merci
i have a ps4 slim and that resistor near the diode pin 13 gives no value, is it like the ps4 FAT ? i replace the encoder ic but no display ... any help andrew ?
Have you checked the seating of the QFN via a microscope at all? They're super-tricky to seat properly and can look fine by eye until you get them under a scope.
