      Hi i have a ps4 white light problem and need advice.
      So i traded a faulty xbox one original for a supposed faulty ps4 original from a person that fixes consoles that wanted the Xbox for spares.
      So on the day i got home with the ps4 i used my ps3 cables to power it on and it miraculously powered on which surprised me as the controller was connected properly using the usb cable.
      But i saw the screen flash black then back to the home screen which i didn't know what is was then it did it once more and was displaying perfectly.
      After about 5 mins of waiting for it too show some errors or switching off because i did not expect it to work i plugged in my usb speakers to the other usb port on the front while the controller was plugged in.
      That was when the screen went black instantly. I didn't know what happened and pressed the eject button and a copy of GTA 5 came out which means the console was still powered on.
      When i plug the controller and speakers in on my ps3 super slim at the same time is says too many devices drawing power something like that.
      So i think it drew too much power on the ps4 and caused a wlod on the ps4.
      Im trying to do a home repair with minimal tools and if you could give me some idea of what the usb ports could have shorted eg a transistor or fuses or something.
      It still powers on and everything but that was the defining factor i think that contributed to the white light of death.
      Any recommendations would help as ive watched a lot of CZcams videos and most are the ic chip or some transistor .
      Its a original ps4 with wlod 1116A

    Those chips weren't faulty, they're fake! A lesson I've learned from my years on Aliexpress. Never buy from a new seller. I understand not all 5 star reviews are real. But they certainly help in working out if things are too good to be true. Hope you get your money back. Although don't hold your breath. I bought a pair of wireless earbuds that had good reviews. Full of static and fell apart. Never did my money back. But everything else (touch wood) has been fine. Come to think I have a few things I need to get for am Ambilight mod I want to do!

    I have a stumper for ya! It’s s WLOD but the video signal is partially present. The “no signal” message on the tv goes away and the screen turns black. The image will even flash on the screen really quick just to tease you and let you know the signal path is actually all there. But then it just stays black. It’ll also flash the image really quick when you start to power it down.
    Replaced the encoder and 1 filter and it’s still doing the exact same thing.
    It’s a cuh-1115A

  • @hogenshero8042

    I know this may not be the case but I was wondering if the chips were not labeled in the correct orientation. I noticed on the bottom of the chip that the ground plate has a notch on one corner to show where pin one should be. Have you looked at the five chips and compared them to the chip you pulled from this board or one in your bin? I would be interested to know if maybe they were engraved incorrectly by accident and it was not caught.

    • @TheCod3r
