Used it on the same TV for the entirety of it’s lifecycle, and I believe I was using my PC monitor when I was troubleshooting. Very unlikely for two devices to cause the same issue. I’ll keep it in mind either way, who knows.
Rappe@sopuli.xyzOPto Console Repair@lemmy.world•PS4 turns off after 5 minutes, troubleshooting & repair tips requestedEnglish1·4 months agoYeah, I think I’m gonna go for the full mainboard swap over that kind of soldering job. I’m not exactly new when it comes to soldering, but I don’t think I can manage components of that scale with my shaky old man hands.
I did mean the towel trick as the last hail mary pass idea if all else fails, I’ve only done it once myself with my old 970 that started bluescreening all of a sudden. It did live for another 2 years after that, I would call it a success. Not typical getting that much, I’m aware.
I’ll have a go with the PSU swap and let’s see how it goes. Cheers for the advice!
Rappe@sopuli.xyzOPto Console Repair@lemmy.world•PS4 turns off after 5 minutes, troubleshooting & repair tips requestedEnglish1·4 months agoOh, this sounds like exactly what’s happening! On iFixit of all places, I’m embarrassed. I’m a huge fan, but never occurred to me to check their guides…
From what I can tell from googling what the hell reballing my APU means, I gather it’s not something you can generally do yourself. Although, since it’s solder joints that have come loose or bad, ye olde glitching GFX towel-oven trick could work as well. If all else fails, I’ll consider trying that.
But this also tells me, that if my spare parts PS4 main board works, I can just swap it over and it should work.
Thank you, no clue why I didn’t find that guide with my previous googling!
Is that the probable cause? I did level it recently, and it barely vibrates now. Maybe I’m putting in too much at a time…
