Thanks in advance!

EDIT (2020.04.22): First off, wow I did not realize people even looked at this thread. Second, I want everyone to know I ended up sending my console to Sony, who kindly repaired it even after the warranty had expired (IIRC I only paid for shipping, it’s been so long IDEK). Thank you to Tronics as well as the many people who I have neglected these past (wow) 4 years for your wonderful tips, and best of luck to those who may have this problem in future. Stay savvy.

Reason why i am suspecting that the problem is with PS4 bluetooth reception is that i have faced the same issue with two separate controllers where as both the controllers are working perfectly fine on an other PS4.

looking forward to some great answers.

Here's a website called fasttech where the part is in stock

https://fasttechstore.com/playstation-4-...

My question is are the parts exactly the same? I do have a CUH-1115A ps4 and the fasttech website seems to have the correct part in stock. From the pictures on fasttech.com, I really can't tell.

On fasttech.com, the back of the part, where the lan and hdmi plug in, it doesn't look slanted in the pictures.

I'm 99.9% sure that this is the correct part. The only reason I'd like to replace the part is because heat from the hardware has caused the plastic to break apart.

I got this unit from my friend and lets just say that the insides are in... suboptimal quality to say the least. most screws are loose/missing and the heatsink retainer was installed backwards etc.

if anyone can tell me the solution to this, it would be GREAT.

Edit: turns out i need to tension the back braket, and while doing so, the unit stayed longer on, the light turned from blue to white, and then red with 3 beeps, and off

Thanks!

It turns out, that the APU heatsink tension thingy at the back was not tight enough, the unit works fine after tensioning it.

Translation:

Only a blue light comes on, no white light.

When I pressed the power button, the PlayStation started up silently, stuck on the blue light. I had to hit it or fix it and turn it on a few times before it started working.

I have clear the data base, unplugged the PS4 and I am out of ideas. Any help?

Here is a link of how it sounds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_AFaJ09...

I have also tried fat32 and exfat I saw somewhere on the forum where someone said the size needed to be below 4kb so I tried as well when formatting along with full formats. The update need to be 2.50 and above so I have tried every update from 2.50 up to 3.50.

I've seen people with brand new consoles have the same issues. They got a new hard drive to get the same error and they have tried the original hard drive to also get the same error.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what it might be?

I'm having an issue with a ps4 with no display, I replaced the hdmi IC chip on the motherboard, and it still won't show any picture. Model is CUH-1216B, and the motherboard is SAC-001. Is it possible that it might be the APU fault (the light after switching on is white), or maybe one of the hdmi coils/filters (one of them seems to be different from the others, but continuity checks on all of them)????

Any ideas?

Utilizing the manual release did not lower it.

Resetting the device in safe mode did not resolve the issue.

Am I correct in assuming this is what keeps the disc in the drive?

Any idea on a manual reset? I can press it down but it pops right back up.

Sorry for the blurry image. If you can make out the black plastic guard that's what I'm referring to.

UPDATE

One of the rollers came out of place which caused the guard to remain up.

New issue - it will not "accept" a disc. I can now insert the disc but it will not auto feed. I can use the manual eject screw to insert/remove the disc but it will not read. I've tried different tightness and it seems to try to spin the disc at a certain point (with lots of noise) but fails to read it.

if the system is powered on with the disc partially inserted the system appears to be cable of ejecting it.* The eject button no longer responds...

The issues are :

• disk drive doesn’t take disks, the disc won’t go in, I have opened up PS4 and no immediate problems or blockages that I can see
• I get error su-42118-6 when I try and update the PS4. I have tried to install the file from USB in Safe Mode and get same issue.

Am I to assume both of these issues are interconnected? Any suggestions? Should I just replace the disk drive?
