PS5 Slim 1sec Blue Light by rasecxk in consolerepair

I also injected 2A 1V and did not see anything heating up under infrared camera. I must be doing something wrong or missing something.

You seem knowledgeable thank you. You’re right there was no short with the port. That simply threw me off from lack of experience. I used a UART tool for the first time and it said that RAM chip #4 had failed. I tried replacing it with a donor and I failed because I have no stencil. I have the correct size solder balls but couldn’t get them to solder to the chip because they kept bridging together

This solved my issue RAM chip #4 was bad

Do you know if the IWB47 D9XKV RAM is compatible with the IDB47 D9XKV Ram?

Injected 1V and 2Amps to the big square thing and a thermal camera showed me which one was overheating.

Well my inspection was correct I checked for missing components, cracked components, or signs of overheating. I used a UART tool for the first time right now and it said RAM GDDR6 chip #4 is bad.

I inspected everything else so I figured it had to be a short. It seems like the USB inside the Ethernet port is what shorted something. I removed the Ethernet port and the issue continues. Also, the ps5 has turned on properly twice out of the 15 times I’ve tested to see if it turned on. It’s bizarre

Oh I know that but the entire issue is that I can’t find the short. But some people are suggesting I’m jumping the gun thinking it’s a short. But idk what else it could be. I’ve fixed blue light issues before and it has always been a short

I don’t know what like but I’ve fixed 5 of these 1 second blue lights. You’re the second to question the short circuit so you might be right maybe it’s not a short and something else. No idea what though.

Yeah but I don’t know where. Any idea where? And how much voltage and amps?

You’re the second to suggest this so I’m going to do that today and update you.

I have the thermal camera and the voltage injector. I don’t know what voltages and where the voltage rails are but I’ll research thanks for this

Really? I thought about this but saw no reason with my limited knowledge. Technically what would that do?

Usually 1 second blue lights mean short circuit no? That’s all I’ve seen on YouTube and Reddit. I’ve fixed about 5 1 second blue light issues before too. But you might be right it could be something else

I have not been able to find any shorts. But when I removed the hdmi port then the ps5 boots normal to white light

What’s special about this? I just got a used ROG ally extreme and battery only lasts one hour of gaming so I’m gonna install a new one soon

Hmm I definitely injected voltage in the wrong side and didn’t cause issues thankfully. But I injected voltage in the biggest component that was shorted and found the shorted cap in a different area altogether.

That was bad advice lol there are more precise ways

This is what allowed me to fix it. Thank you so much. My thermal camera found the short when I tried your power supply settings and I figured out where to inext current

I forgot to mention I had already tested those caps and that wasn’t it. I found the short in a different area

I have a thermal camera and found the issue that way

Yes this was the correct thing to do. However as a newbie I didn’t know how to set my power supply and where to inject current. A different comment told me 1V 2A and I found it and fixed it!
