I Bought the Brokenest PS4 on eBay for $40 - Can I Fix it?
Рет қаралды 1,297,277
4 жыл бұрынI Bought the Brokenest PS4 on eBay - Can I Fix it? I spent $40 on eBay to buy a really broken PS4 Slim. After piecing it back together, replacing a ribbon cable, and checking some fuses on the motherboard I was ready to give it a test. And it didn't work. After looking around a bit more it looks like this console was likely dropped. I tried replacing a missing capacitor and even reflowed some of the chips on the motherboard. Can I get this thing to work? Stay tuned until the end to see.

After watching you for the first time last night, I was inspired to start fixing ps4s! I already jailbreak and fix ps3s, but I wanted to try a PS4. So today I actually brought a broken PS4 from a local for $40! It had cooling issues, had I not watched your videos last night, I would've struggled to navigate the PS4 system. I pulled it completely apart and cleaned everything from top to bottom. I also reapplied thermal compound and put it all back together and tested it. It works perfectly!! Very happy now and I thank you for your help in navigating the PS4 hardware!

You don't need a master. I'm actually concerned about my nephew's PS4 slim hanging around our house. It sits in a niche under the TV and cats sometimes jump up there to find a secluded spot. By watching this vid I can see how much damage can be done to devices like these. All it takes is a little bit of carelessness and an external force to be this devastating.

So, back in the DOS era, just before Windows 3.0 released, I made a program in Quick Basic. Little did I know that every time I tested the save feature it was copying all of the code into whatever directory I was in. It was on somebody else's computer. Turns out the owner was confused as to why his hard drive had less space than before. Turns out I had made over a dozen copies of the game in a bunch of different directories. I was banned from using his computer ever again.

@skyeanderson4976 4 жыл бұрын
It has to do with designing of motherboards. They sometimes have extra solder pads or spots for capacitors or other components. When a specific model of a product is designed,they use the motherboard and place specific components in specific places. Some designs don’t require extra capacitors or chips. It is cheaper for a company to have one board designed that can be used with multiple different schematic designs...rather than paying more to have multiple motherboards designed. The extra pads are there in case the manufacturer that assembles components needs to add capacitors to fulfill a specific schematic. Sometimes for example,a laptop motherboard will be used on multiple different versions with i3 or i5 processors,maybe even low end atoms. The components and selection of these components are different in many places on the board,but the motherboard itself is identical to the other model laptops. The CPU and circuitry is just differently laid out according to the schematic requirements for the different model laptop

Sony consoles (PS3 and up) like having HDDs installed when attempting to boot, even if the firmware is stored on its EMMC/Flash storage. Was the HDD connected at all during these tests?
