Hi I took apart my ps4 slim and there was barley any dust build up and I cleaned the fan. After I put it back and put on a game not doing anything the fan went up like crazy
That should not have happened. Something might have gone wrong in the cleaning process. If you took apart the heatsink from the processor you have to change the thermal paste as well. If not, maybe have your console checked out by a specialist.
This is by far the best PS4 slim cleaning video out there. So many others are making it worse by removing both plates from the motherboard, when there really isn't any need to. Thanks for this 👍
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. Managed to clean my cousin's PS4 with your easy to follow instructions! Works like new now! I watched quite a few videos and yours certainty should win a TH-cam award! :)
It's March 2023 and found your video, my ps4 was like a airplane taking off😂, your tutorial was easy to follow and helped me to clean my console. Now, it's as quiet as a new one! Love it!! Thank you very much!
Pro Tip: with the help of a $20 3D Printing Pen, you can actually reattach those little plastic “warranty seal” pieces if you’re skilled enough. Just a fun little bit o’ advice for my fellow DIYers who also still want to maybe use their warranty for whatever reason.
Thanks so much I bought a used ps4 slim from a gaming store in my country bought it for 150 to play some ps exclusives at cheap price and about 10 mins in Home Screen it was like an airplane and it was vibrating my desk and everything watched your video cleaned everything now no sound at all so happy thanks again will recommend you to one of my friends keep up great work 👍
My friend sent this vid to me, and i'm glad he did so. This helped me soo much. My problem wasn't with the fan. The console froze every time i opened something. I can't thank you enough!
my cousin does samehes good ast taking things apart but does it as living too, but does something eles now as wont fix friends famailys pc or xb ps4 5 xb x s becuase he said it gets diffult wen it comes to fixing famailys stuff as they always keep goin bk sayin it wont wrk again n want it free n stuff so we all got ask strangers unfortnally , i never asked him for nothing but he was telling me i think before i did ask but i do my own stuff or got few friends wrk at currys in uk who good fix anything and dnt cost me much but u got wait few weeks as thjair otherr wrk loads b4 ie in currys shop, as i give it um take home wen i meet um in pub in uk, good few lads tbh n dnt cost bank too. well mostr times its ok,
Thankfully a now have a ps5, but I tried this out for the first time to see if I could do it, and it’s absurd how dusty mine was and how removing just the surface dust made such a big difference. It’s no longer an overpowering fan being the loudest thing in the room.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Your video was so easy to understand. Wow! Did we have alot of dust in our PS4! We appreciate you taking the time to make this video and share it to help others! Have a good day!
Amazing video Kept getting the over heating warning and randomly turning off, it doesn't sound like a jet no more and i dont get the warning anymore or it dont randomly turn off on me, simple and easy break down, Thank You for the great vid
I was just nodding along thinking, oh I can do this... Until you get to removing the power supply and whoa, that's a bit too scary for me. Is it worth it to just open the top and bottom cover and then clean whatever dust is visible/reachable from there? That's probably the limit of what I'm confident enough to do by myself. Or should I not do it all? :(
I saw some videos where people just blow air into the consoles air vents without taking anything apart. I guess that if you can get rid of any dust particle inside you console would be better than leaving it there. But if you are not confident opening your console or if you are scared you could break something maybe it would be better to take your console to a professional and get it cleaned properly. Good luck!!!
Update: Found it! It goes into the slot behind the ○ on the side with fan. Hope that makes sense. Original: This video was amazing! I had a small black L shape piece with a circle fall out while I was removing disk drive. I have no idea where it goes or if it's even a part of the ps4 😭
Thank you for the nice and clear instructions but I’m still not confident taking my ps4 apart just to clean it. Don’t want to break it or mess it up by accident. 😅
I know how you feel. It took me ages to get the courage to open up mine 🤭. There is always the option to get it cleaned by a professional, or just opening up the lid to analyze how dirty the fan is.
Thank you so much I needed this!! My PS4 sounds like a jet..actually probably louder 🤷♀️😂 I’m gonna try this probably tomorrow thank you!!! Keep up the good work!
It's a very well made video, but, in my humble opinion, it's missing one very important step that some might wnat to do and would help most of the PS4's out there to keep working cool for a couple more years. You should include removing and replacing the thermal paste on the APU, for this subjet to be complete. Other than that, great work.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this comment! You are right, the subject is not complete without the thermal paste change. On the other hand when making this tutorial I made the conscious decision to leave out the thermal paste change because not everyone that will follow this tutorial will be able to perform the procedure and might end up ruining their console. And even though I am doing my best to add disclaimers in my videos there is still an ethical responsibility that I feel for my viewers. Also I consider the two procedures separate because as a good practice it is recommended to clean the hardware from dust every 6 months or so while the thermal paste change can be done once in 2-3 years. So it is still ok for some to do the dust cleanup and once every 6 procedures take the console to a professional for a thermal paste change. That was the logic behind me not adding the TP change in the video.
This video helped me to clean my crusty ps4 but you should've used a beter camera angle because it was pretty confusing the view from the side but I still managed to clean this old computer before I get a ps5
Oare nu a vazut nimeni ca e scris gresit titlul😁. E playsation in loc de playstation. Felicitari pt munca totusi. Maine o sa iti urmez sfaturile si o sa il curat si eu pe al meu ca tare zgomotos mai este.
This video helped a lot😮😊🎉 but i couldn’t do it to the end bcs i wasn’t able to disconnect the wifi wire.. tell me how hard and how did you pull the wihi wire out?😢
Just did this to my daughters PS4. I walked in her room and it sounded like a jet engine from across the room. Now, I can't hear anything. For the record; you should do this to ALL electronics.
Retrace your steps. As long as you didn’t damage anything in the process it is most likely that you missed something while putting everything back together. It happens to me all the time 🤭. Best bet: watch the video again and take it all apart step by step until you find whatever plug you missed. I hope you figure it out. Good luck 🍀.
@@LifeHackerMax thank you so much,while i was assembling it back i forgot to connect the wire that connected the power on button,works great and quiet now thanks to you
yoo, I'm gonna try this today or tomorrow, I got my ps4 second hand and it's soo loud. I wanted to clean it the easy way but those black things 8:32 got in the way haha. Wish me luck 🤞
I just finished doing it. Thank you so much! It seems the pre-owner was a smoker, so that stuff was everywhere, very disgusting really. It's a miracle it turned on in the first place 😅 Now it's incredibly quiet. Great tutorial man!
I haven’t even got the chance to wish you good luck 🍀 and you are already done with the job. That’s how fast 💨 you where!!! Awesome job man!!! Thank you very much! It means so much to me to know my videos are helping out!!! And thanks for taking the time to comment!!! Have fun gaming!!! 👍🏼
Thank you for taking the time to watch my videos and your input is much appreciated 🙏🏽. And yes! The difference was noticeable! The PS4 fan gets very loud when the radiators get blocked. After cleaning the console should be silent. If the fan is still loud that is a sign that the thermal paste might need a change.
@@LifeHackerMax thanks for the video! I live quite dusty country, i live in Caribbean and so my porch door is always open and thus lots of dust. I did clean it of with compressed air a lot in the beginning. But think I should have a peak inside see how it's doing. Still got lou2 in the box, i did run that intro and played couple minutes. Fan went crazyw with that game, but on the other hand, I've read it's kinda normal for that game and PS5 slim
Whatever you do try not to watch 2 different videos done differently otherwise you’ll end up taking out way to many screws like I did also be extra careful with the black wire under the battery the little plug can come loose from the wire then you’ll have to macgyuver it back together like I had to I mean I wore plastic gloves and still cut my hand up good on that part I’ve got rather small hands for a guy so if you’ve got a kid you trust enough to stick their hand in might be easier
The main power socket should be disconnected first. As long as you don’t damage the ribbons, wires when connecting/disconnecting them, you should be ok. All the information is stored in a hard drive like the one you have in your Laptop 💻. The information on the storage device will not be harmed by unplugging the connectors. 👍🏼 Good Luck! Follow the video and you should be fine.
From what I’ve heard there was a lawsuit filed against corporations for the warranty stickers, and you cannot void the warranty for working on your own equipment
My power supply is not coming out after I take that one screw out. It also looks a little bit different from yours mine has a square silver piece on the back.
Hi lifesaver .. i'm a biginner on my side and i don't have that much confidence to clean my PS4 slim even after watching your video .. i'm afraid that i will ruin the cables any instructions ?
I like to learn by stealing traits. Whenever I am in your situation I ask someone that is skilled in that area to help. This way I learn the trait without messing anything up. You could ask one of your parents or a friend and do it together. You will learn how to do it and get more confident for next time your PS4 needs cleaning 😉. Good luck! 🍀
I tested this once to make sure it works as I have a security bit. I used a flat screwdriver and a small hammer. Press the screwdriver against the small pin and hit it with the hammer gently. Once the pin has bent, move the screwdriver on the other side trying to bend the pin in another direction. Do this a few times and eventually the pin will break. I have to say it wasn’t very easy. Good luck!🍀
@@LifeHackerMax actually I am doing it first time so I am reading all the comments to make sure it works 100% and then I saw this comment I just wanna confirm everything please.
@@shrichandgangwani7920 I would recommend getting the right tool for the job. But if you are a crafty person, It does work to break the little pin in the middle of the screw.
hey bro , I followed these steps and cleaned my Ps4 , but now the disc is not reading, entry nd eject is working but it shows "unrecognisable disk". any solution? digital games working.
Hey man! Maybe something happened when you connected the ribbons. Make sure each ribbon is in the right spot, inserted enough to make contact with the pins and the orientation is ok (right side up). If you pulled on one of the ribbons and the copper inside is damaged, you might need to replace that ribbon to fix the issue.
7:30 when I pulled this part out it’s not coming out and I pull harder and now the motherboard thing is not connected to the plastic cover and idk what to do
@@LifeHackerMax oh my god your a life saver mate. Your right i did miss a screw. Thanks so much 😂 I only spent 1.5 hours trying to figure out what i did wrong 🤦. Thank you very much ❤️
I’ll give it to PlayStation they built a resilient machine. Mine sounded like a jet engine. It would shut down randomly. I dropped it and my video screen looked like a bad acid trip but it slowly repaired itself and she’s still going.

7:30 when I pulled this part out it’s not coming out and I pull harder and now the motherboard thing is not connected to the plastic cover and idk what to do
That is the power supply. Probably missed a screw. Try asking someone to double check and retrace your steps. When in doubt take it to a professional.
@@LifeHackerMax oh my god your a life saver mate. Your right i did miss a screw. Thanks so much 😂 I only spent 1.5 hours trying to figure out what i did wrong 🤦. Thank you very much ❤️
Great video, thanks :)
My pleasure!
I’ll give it to PlayStation they built a resilient machine. Mine sounded like a jet engine. It would shut down randomly. I dropped it and my video screen looked like a bad acid trip but it slowly repaired itself and she’s still going.
Excellent
Thanks so much!
You're welcome! ☺️
Thank you so much
I can't even get the power supply connector in
Do I just push it in? I tried everything
It has an orientation. Try rotating the plug and see if it fits the other way around.
