Filthy PS4 Restoration & Repair - $45 GumTree buy
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 12. 08. 2020
- I bought a broken PS4 off GumTree for AUD$45 (USD$32), that reeks of cigarettes and aftershave. Sold as "fan not working" and with missing parts, a previous repair attempt was made by the owner.
Can i save this thing?

This was like a resuscitating a dead man with organs missing. Mad respect for resurrecting this unit.
Haha thanks đ
Bruh This dude brought a PS4 from the fallout universe
I have one on 5.05 that had a nest of roaches inside before apparantly being just put out in the rain. Its rusty as hell, and still smells pretty bad.
Epic Winđ€Ł
Dumb comment this would be a gold mine if you found this in fallout fallout is in Apocalypse a nuclear apocalypse
22:41 a professional.... đ€đ€đ€đđ
đ he got some nice treats for that đ
Wow that console was FILTHY! Great job getting it running again.
SPOILER ALERT!!
A moment of silence for all the ps5âs that people wonât keep clean
Facts then they wonder why their console gets loud đ€Ł
Ps5 is more difficult
@@alipetuniashow not hard to keep clean tho
@@alexisblanco6088 or you could just put it in a room with an air purifier
Don't you mean scalpers won't keep clean?
The old owner must have been a barbarian, cat hair and various crap everywhere even where a sane mind would never imagine!
I can understand cat hair or dog hairs in the system. But the fact that it was dirty with more than that on the inside was bad
I myself have a goddamn cat even he loses but never got the hair on the console i clean it everyday don't where the fuck does there money grow im telling it was kid who owned this previously
methhead
They literally tried to super glue electrical wires
@@oodfty3740 but super glue is SUPER conductive đ
My blood pressure drops 10 points watching your videos. Pure ASMR. Attention to detail and meticulous cleanup and repair is so soothing and educational.
Ah yes super glue and electrical contacts, works perfectly for me everytime. Also may I suggest a detailing brush for all the little crevices, works way better than tooth brush.
Thanks, I will get some đ
@@RestoreTechnique did you put a hard drive in it?
@@triggerguy8405 Yes I did
@@triggerguy8405 did you not watch the video?
@@MrJamesstott From what I saw Actually I don't think he did. He only put that 4 GB thing in it so it can run. But he did because Crash worked.
I have a dog and my PS4 is clean as a whistle the previous owner was a jerk
The only thing that bothers me is that you didn't solder a new connector for the fan and solder the wires directly to the board, but you did a great job of restoring it.
I just don't understand how people can be so damn neglectful and careless!
I treat my PS4 like a princess!
This was so much better than i expected - really well lit, filmed and edited and a great restoration! đ„
Watching you disassemble the device piece by piece is such a pleasure....and fixing it ,is just another story.
Great job.đ
I would use gloves. That thing is gross.
No wonder why new diseases pop out of nowhere đ
Excellent restoration! I really liked the process, good job! I enjoyed it very much! Greetings from Uruguay!
Thankyou! đ
đ„”đ„”
@@elgringoxd8276 u good?
Should have put the whole shell in the sink
@@RestoreTechnique Is not a Repair
Yooo. This channel is actually pretty legit. Keep it up bro
Fantastic job man! That PS4 surely is in the right hands now đđ»
Definitely wasn't expecting this quality video from a channel with only 18k subscribers! Great work, you deserve way more subscribers! And cute doggo at the end! đ
Thanks so much đ
Awww. Using your dog as a product tester⊠I love that

This reminded me of a dude I bought a not working car off of. It wasn't starting and he wanted 100 above scrap value. He didn't know what was wrong with it and refused to let me take it to a mechanic to see if it was worth my time, wouldn't let me see I the engine bay because "it's a $400 stop wasting my time" I couldn't see any oil leak and it had been sitting for 3 weeks so I bought it. The seats by themselves would have gotten me my money back, and the panels were dentless.
When he signed all the paperwork and said "have fun" I called my cousin to bring his tow truck and looked inside the engine bay, his wife came out and told me that the car randomly cut out and she took it to her mechanic who said the wiring harness was rusted and it was gonna be a 5k fix (This doesn't make sense) so I looked at the battery and it was loose, I tightened it and jump started it. He came out cussed me out and demanded more money, I explained to him I might have considered telling him his mechanic was a scum bag if he told me what they thought the issue was. He didn't say what it was, and in the ad it said he just couldn't get it started suddenly.
I may even have tightened the one screw and put cardboard under the battery for him to take it for a test drive.
I would have been considerate if he wasn't so rude and abrupt, wouldn't even let me look at the engine.
I probably wouldn't have bought the car if I knew the oil sump plug was stuck on with silicone.
His daughter was thick tho
I wish I could do that with my ps4. I didn't know they had these issues and bought one off of a dude, it turned on and I played Minecraft and Netflix for 5 mins. Now I can't even get God of war started
Great job! I wish I was smart like you to do something like that. Youâre the man!

Any moment now... he's coming...
Who's coming?
The Ducktor!

Thankyou!
Impressive!!! Loved the pup at the end lol
This was great I'm trying to learn how to work on this kind of stuff.
Wow, I can't imagine the total hours it took you to clean and fix all of that. Good job. I would have given up on that disc drive, so difficult to clean all those little grooves and holes. I also really like the look of the white fat PS4.
Thankyou đ
Imagine supergluing wires and thinking that itâll work wtf
What a work well done,i enjoyed every minute of this video!!!

Love the editing. well done
Thanks!
I bought a fat ps4 with the hdmi connector ripped off.
I managed to repair it by buying a new connector and soldering it, on the other hand I realized that there was no more wifi antenna.
At the beginning, I had put a wifi antenna from ps3 fat then I decided to install a wifi antenna from a laptop pc because it is much thinner and since then, it works very well.
Thank you for your very informative video.
That's great, cheers :)
"Smells like cigarettes and aftershave" greatest description we all have a clear image of previous owner add in the stickers and the image is complete lol
đđ
More restorations like this please
Love the professional sniffer.
Super glue as thermal paste very innovative
cigarettes and aftershave... yuk. awesome video lol
You have great heart. Salute you Sir.
"It's just the fan"
He need to clean and add some other parts coz they are missing
That ASMR restoration sounds though
Nice restoration man!
That PlayStation was very grateful it met you that day
idk how a Acid container looks like but i think this fits the description
Perfect job mate!
That's Very cool man, good job
I love it, the replacement parts.... "thingy"
đ hehe. I was then worried that some people wouldn't know that ODD meant, and thought I was saying it's an odd bracket.
I messed up the timing of the HDD, as the text appears before the clip starts.
Damn Bro this is so Relaxing to watch, i like this Content. Thumbs up
You cool man đđ Nice video. Relaxing.
Fantastic job đ very professional.
Thanks heaps! :)
You are legend to fix it đ
I wish I can learn to do these type of things, I donât think Iâm delicate enough . Beautiful restoration.
Thanks Beardman!
I wish i could do that! Excellent restoration!, already subbed, liked the video and ringed the bell, i love your content!
Thanks so much đ
They tried to glue the cables back on đđđ
When he opened it up at first I thought âyeah thatâs way past the old rubbing alcohol treatmentâ, then he started washing the plastic in the tub đ
I laughed when the dog gave his approval :)
good job man !

oH hI mR bEaSt
Great job sir
The Pharoah sticker is the only one I would reapply after cleaning case.
That Ps4 will be grateful for the rest of it's life đ„°
You should tell the previous owner who owned this console that, this is how to rebuild a PS4.
Not a restoration. This was a miracle revival
What a clean boi here
You are doing a great job.
So essentially someone with no knowledge took this thing apart thinking they could fix it. Sad to say the least.
Lmao glued the cable
They literally could have looked it up on the internet they obviously didn't care enough probably bought another that's about to get the same treatment
Stunning repair job! đ€đ¶đ
Thankyou đ
That's a clean Restoration âïž
Thanks mate
Mr clean erasers...work amazing for this!
This is legit how I maintenance my ps4 and it be so nice and quietđ
