My ps5 wants me to reinstall the system software but it wont let me

I recently bought a ps5 that wont turn on because I thought I might be able to fix it. When I start the ps5 it automatically starts in safe mode and tells me to reinstall the system software from the PlayStation site. I followed all the steps like getting a Usb drive, making 2 folders and installing the new software. When I plug that USB in to the PlayStation it tells me to wait and after a while the screen just turns black. The PS5 still give a white light like it does when it's on but the screen is completely black and won't do anything. When I try to shut it off, it won't let me. And when I unplugged it, it of course instantly turned of. But when I start it again it gives me the exact same message and does the exact same as before when I try to reinstall the system software. Please help me...

When you install PS5>update> PS5 update.pup, if you get an error, it could be the SSD drive on the PlayStation console is failing. Or some other logic board issue. A corrupt bios erasable programmable ReadOnlyMemory or EPROM can cause this

These are the basic logic board functionality Checks: these power rails are on the board to make sure all the power rails are correctly doing their job and delivering the correct voltage with a Multimeter.

In VDC mode:

Measure with the black probe on a metal shield anywhere on the device (ground) and then touch the red probe to the pad or component shown here:

I'd try to program the ROM on the PlayStation following this (below) guide to swap bios files

I'd image and backup your eprom before you try anything. I recommend DMDE for imaging drives and recovering data

I'd look around for bios dumps on forms like tronicsfix or bad caps link below to firmware dump.
