    • The hard drive cover slides off just like on previous models.

    What is different about it?

    TronicsFix - Réponse

    i know the model i have (CUH-1215 jet black star wars collection bundle) does not just slide off like the older versions :(

    daniellavon4321 -

    Actually, it does. All 1200 series have removable hard drive covers that just slide off. They are usually a bit harder to remove, but they do come off the same way.

    • The hard drive has one screw that needs to come out then it slides right out.

    • You'll need a PH 0 screwdriver for this step.

    • Using a pick or something similar, peel off the warranty stickers to reveal two black T9 security torx screws.

    • Remove the two T9 security torx screws.

    • This is the first major revision we find...there are only two screws that hold the plastics on. The previous models had four.

    Hola que tal… una pregunta.

    ¿Este es el modelo más reciente del (PS4 FAT)?

    Me intriga esta pregunta, ya que mi playstation 4 igual tiene 2 tornillos, y veo muchos vídeos que tienen 4 tornillos…

    Bueno sin más que decir espero y me respondas gracias!

    • FIRST remove the two screws securing the top cover to the PS4. Removing the top cover will be easier if you follow these steps in order:

    • 1) Grab underneath of the top cover near the power button.

    • 2) Pull up...you will hear it click or snap as you pull up.

    • 3) Move your hand over to the opposite side of the top cover and pull up here as well.

    • 4) After puling up both sides of the top cover it should now slide back and off of the PS4.

    • We now have our first view of the inside of the CUH 1200. The first thing we notice is that the motherboard is much, much smaller and the APU clamp has been completely redesigned. The inside of this model is completely different than previous models.

    The cuh-1215(A) has 2 more t9s at this point, the plastic retainer clip adhered along the left underside of the top cover, (shown between thumb and HDD in image 1 of this step) had 1 right there in front, and 1 about 1/2 way to the back of the console. (Empty screw-hole shown in step 14, image 1 below) At the bottom, and top right corners of the HDD enclosure, respectively.

    • To remove the bottom cover you'll need to pull up very hard on each side of the cover near the back of the console.

    • You may be able to pull just with your hands but you might also need to use some opening tools to pry it off.

    • We get our first view of the components on the underside of the console. Looks like we have a redesigned power supply and optical drive.

    There are two more screws ...

    jbadarani - Réponse

    Can't get back piece off. Pulling hard. There is only 1 screw on the bottom right? No hidden ones?

    Wyatt Faught - Réponse

    I have a CUH-1202A that I cant get past this step. I’ve pulled so hard I think the casing is about to break. Anyone have any ideas or a more detailed description of how to use a jimmy?

    Leslie Pogson - Réponse

    Ok, I got it off. I pulled the case apart and made a small gap near the corners. Wedged some tweezers in the gap, levered it and made a larger gap for a screwdriver. Levered that and it popped off.

    It damaged the edges of the case but wont be noticeable once its all back together.

    Leslie Pogson - Réponse

    I used a spudger to pry about 1/4” in from the back on each side and the cover just fell off.

    Shawn Hime - Réponse

    There are definitely 2 more screws. On the bottom casing section, there is a screw close to the ac plug in and one at the same place on the opposite side. They are covered by plain black stickers similar to the ones that have the warranty info on. Don’t try removing the bottom with having removed 4 black screws from the back.

    Jacques Schalaques - Réponse

    dont pull hard. use a spudger on the sides slowly and it will pop off with no effort.

    bob tasca - Réponse

    Don't pull the case hard before unsecuring the sides and the corners. You will find that the corners of the case are hard to pull. First you need to put some pry tool in-between the sides then pull a bit horizontally so they get freed from the clips. Finally you pull the case up gently then it will open for you.

    Mouad Moumadi - Réponse

    There are indeed 2 more security screws

    Emanuele Carucci - Réponse

    Very little force required! I recently removed the bottom cover on my PS4 CUH-1216A. On that version at least, there’s only one screw, behind the warranty sticker. I removed the cover by prying with a small flathead screwdriver in the joint between lid and case, on each side of the console, approx. 10-15 mm from the corners; the cover simply popped free from the two tabs that hold it on each side. It could then be lifted off without any risk of damaging it.

    Nick Valentine - Réponse

    STOP SAYING THERE ARE 2 MORE SCREWS! If you have 2 more screws you have a different model, there is a separate guide for the model you have. Make sure you're following the correct guide.

    TJ Hughes - Réponse

    This guy gets it.

    I had to go through 3 different manuals before I found this particular one. My PS4 is a fat model (CHU 1215A), but it's not the 1st edition like the ones that launched. Those are the ones with the 4 screw cases. My PS4, and the one in debate here, is like a 2nd edition. The next PS4 would be the PS4 slim model, release soon after. Sony made a few small scale tweaks, like going from the 4 screws to 2 screws in the case, as this guide points out most of the other differences.

    henryfritz59 -

    Jesus, as a tech of over 25 years I have never lost so much confidence in a company than with the phrase "just pull hard bro."

    As others have mentioned, the case practically falls off with the use of a spudger/pry at the clips about 2" from the back on each side. A proper teardown video that demonstrates how easy these clips pop can be found on YouTube under the name: PlayStation 4 model CUH-1200 cleaning tutorial.

    • After we remove the bottom plastic we see the physical eject button that Sony has decided to use. This is another significant change over the previous models.

    • We're guessing this change is to help prevent the "random ejecting" of discs that plagued the previous models.

    • Remove the three T9 torx screws then the two phillips PH 0 long screws.

    • Pull up on the left side (the side without the four wires), then on the right side. The right side of the power supply will be harder to pull up on so you'll need to pull firmly.

    • After you get it loose you'll be able to pull it up a bit but it will still be connected by the four wire connector so don't pull it all the way out until that has been disconnected (shown in the next step).

    It looks like that for CUH 1216A model, security TR8 fits better

    sartoric - Réponse

    I can’t montage the PH0 Screw. It gets in but I gets off really easy.

    Florent Krasniqi - Réponse

    The reason the right side needs some initial slight-wiggly pull to raise up is due to its solid two-prong-like plug pins beside its connector seen on the next step.

    • You'll need to disconnect this four wire connector from the motherboard.

    • The best way we've found is to use mini pliers. Pull up on one side then the other. Go back and forth one side at a time until it pops off.

    • The power supply can now be removed.

    • Use caution as this connector is easily pulled off the motherboard.

    • Be sure that you are pulling on the connector for the wires that go to the power supply itself and NOT on the connector on the motherboard.

    I found that if you use a xacto knife or box cutter slide it down the flat side lessens it right up but still use caution it's a tough littlet connection

    I broke the connector on the motherboard. Do I need to replace the mother board now?

    srgeorgio - Réponse

    I found that an easier way was to deconnect the cable from the power supply unit instead of the mainboard. It should be less risky since you’re going to exchange the old PSU anyway and you keep the connection cable with the rest of the console when you haven’t got the new PSU already (as in my case). I don’t know if the connector is removable on every PSU. Mine was the N14-200P1A for the PS4 CUH-1216A.

    bei mir ist es abgebrochen (leider).. viel einfacher wäre es gewesen, es vom netzteil zu trennen (statt vom mainboard).

    bwishfor1 - Réponse

    I removed the power supply during a cleaning of my PS4 CUH-1216A. Instead of disconnecting the cable from the circuit board, i disconnected it from the power supply unit. It did not require much force nor special tools. Optimally it would be done prior to removing the power supply unit (it is readily accessible) as the power unit can then be lifted vertically out of its seat (as opposed to “folding” out), which minimizes the risk of damaging two thin metal skewers which protrude from the mother board up into the underside of the power supply unit.

    Nick Valentine - Réponse

    Please rewrite the first sentence!

    You'll need to disconnect this four wire connector from the power supply

    Thank you, because of course I pulled the connector from the motherboard and guess what happened...

    Me too I also pulled from the mother box can this be fixed?

    Loki -

    I tried this. I think I may have broken it. Will find out on reassembly. After much frustration and a suspected break, I tried removing it from the power supply. It came out easily. No special tools. Much, much easier and I suspect less risky. I'm new to this world and didn't know there were comments. I wish I had read them and gone with the power supply connection first. Recommend a change to the guide.

    P.s. we need a guide on how to fix this connection now.

    • Using the same pliers grasp the WiFi antenna cable and pull up carefully

    • The really wide optical drive cable has a black "collar" that needs to be lifted up on each side. This will free the cable.

    • The other two cables can just be pulled right out of their respective sockets.

    • Even though the optical drive has been redesigned they still use the same roller system with the white bar in between. We're guessing that there will still be problems with these white bars falling out.

    • The laser and carrier look very similar to the previous models.

    • We can now see one of the huge differences between the older models and this new model...there's no RAM on one side of the motherboard!

    • There is still the same amount of RAM but the total number of RAM chips has been cut in half.

    • In other news, the HDMI port has finally been redesigned! This is great news as the old style is very prone to failure.

You didn't show what the supply connector is supposed to look like, when disconnected. Now I ripped it off of my mother board, attempting to assess milk damage. Thanks for helping me make sure my PS4 will stay broken.

draconicfeathers - Réponse

I'm so sorry it ripped off. I'm assuming you are talking about the power supply connector? If so step #10 shows the method we use to remove this connector. We use mini pliers and grasp one end at a time and pull up gently but firmly each time...this will eventually get the connector off without damage in most cases. That being said we have had to fix a connector every once in a while on these because some of them are fragile.

I have a hdmi connector taken out of an old blu ray player, it looks the same as my ps4 one, will it work or do I need one designed for the ps4?

Alan Roberts - Réponse

It's highly unlikely that it would work. I haven't seen any that would work other than ports that are made just for the PS4. Just be careful where you buy it. Most of them out there (especially the really cheap ones) don't even line up correctly.

TronicsFix -

The contacts at the back of the HDMI port are offset on the PS4. The port may look the same but when placed onto the board, the contacts will be in between the solder pads in stead of over them. Sometimes you can bend the mounting legs of the port to shift it over and align the contacts, but it’s best to just get the correct port. Heads up though, almost all suppliers of the PS4 port are not selling the offset style, so you’ll have to do some hunting to find a supplier that has the proper port…

When replacing this optical drive will I need a new control board?

asilvaesq - Réponse

Step 15:

Good to know that this part was changed. But since the CUH1100 Sony has changed the fan profile. So the units since are more quiet. I see a problem with this. The fan is working slower now under high loads. The heatsink is not bigger thant the CUH1000. So the temperature under load is much higher than before.

So we know the problems of the PS3 fat console.

I like a louder fan more than the chance to got broken solder.

If we could see the APU tempertures (like on an PC) we would change the cooling I am sure.

So thank you so much because now my power supply was ripped from the motherboard because I was following your instructions. Thanks so much. And I'm not the only one reading the first comment.

I've done my best on step #9 to show exactly how to place the pliers to get that connector off. I hope more people read the first comment so they are more careful with this connector. If there is a better wat to describe how to remove this connector please let me know what that would be.

Pull from the power supply, not the mother board. If you pull from the mother board you'll rip it clean off. Pull from the power supply and it'll slide out.

The power button has gone bad on my PS4. I can not see it in pictures, but I have found out something is missing between the black power button and the microswitch on the mainboard. The microswitch is cowered by a small metal thingy, and then there must be something else, but what is it????

jungelassen - Réponse

If you can post a pic of it I can tell you what you're missing. Either way though you'll have to replace the entire switch most likely...it's soldered onto the motherboard so it will need to be soldered on.

TronicsFix -

The microswitch is still on the motherboard, and working. It is all the plastic that actuates the switch that has gone missing :-( . Can not post pics in this site, sorry.

jungelassen - Réponse

So the plastic piece that you actually press on with your finger to turn it on? I haven't seen those for sale anywhere but I'd keep my eye on Ebay.

TronicsFix -

There is a black thingy on eBay that looks like the one I've got - 30 bucks!!!!!

jungelassen - Réponse

Bummer...that's a lot!

Loose piece warning on pic. 20: It goes under the black cover on pic. 14, (upper left). So: Before taking out PSU, remove said cover, and the long screw from the buttom. Then you are in crontrol of the process....

jungelassen - Réponse

Yep...you'll lose it if you're not careful!

How correctly change optical drive on CUH-1216? Help! What is the good model?

Is the HDMI input on my CUH-1114A model PS4 connected to my motherboard? If not can I replace it. It seems that while traveling with my consoles instantly the hdmi port has been damadehed and needs replaced. Please help!!

Caleb king - Réponse

Yes, it's connected to your motherboard. It will need to be replaced if it's not working.

Hello, I've seen your video on Youtube with the PS4 CUH-1215 Teardown, and you wrote their I would need T8 Torx Security Screw driver and a PH00 Phillips Screw Driver. My unit is CUH-1200 and I'm wondering if Torx T8 and PH00 phillips will fit in my Unit's screws since you used a T9 and a PH0 in this guide, opposite to your video even though they're just the same unit. Thank you ^^

Felix Ababa III - Réponse

TR8 or TR9 work fine. I presonally use a TR8 because I've found it to fit looser and not get stuck in the screw hole. When I'm fixing a bunch of these at a time it makes it much faster if the bit doesn't stick in the screw.

I'm trying to do the wifi antenna mod. Where the heck can I find a 38cm U.FL / IPEX to RP-SMA wifi wire. Did Sony special make this? I can't find it anywhere. I wonder if part of making new models is to defy user mods.

Dustin - Réponse

The longest length I can find is 30cm. I'm going to order the 30cm and try to alter my route. But I don't think it will work

Dustin -

Unfortunately, I don't know of anywhere to get it. Sorry about that.

My PS4 is an older model I dropped it once but it continued working for a while but suddenly sometimes the PS4 comes on but doesn't have enough power to come on fully

Jesse Daniels - Réponse

I watched the tear down to this and it is accurate. 8/10. It is a bit difficult. There are so many screws and they are varying on type. My advice is pay high attention to the type of head the screws have. If it is round, or flat. Especially with the Phillips screws. The torx are much easier to keep track of since they are the same. But the Phillips are a pain to keep track of. And be sure to read the steps thoroughly . There is a piece that gets loose and it's easy to lose. You will need it. I think the article could use a small update. At least with the description of the screw. That way you don't put one where it doesn't go. Honestly the Xbox one is a f*** ton easier than the ps4. Just starting I thought I was going to break the plastic. Also be careful. It can be on there real tight.

My PlayStation4 keeps freezing and just runs extremely sloppy. If i try to run ANY application or Game, practically ANYTHING, it freezes and i have to hard reset it. Any idea what it could be?

What wires on the PS4 cooling fan are the positives there is brown, black, or white?

coltenraymo00 - Réponse

What is the microswitch for that is on the pcb board on the optical drive that you remove in step 12?

Does the pcb board need to be sat in a certain position before screwing back down? Either towards the front or rear of the console as it has a Little play to position it.

Thanks

I used this guide to replace the fan in my sons PS4 and can say this did work the only problem I had was disconnecting the power pack I couldn’t do it at all but managed to work around with the help of another part of hands and being very careful move to motherboard other the way and I have never done anything like this before

Joanne Lewis - Réponse

I lost the loose piece is there anywhere online I can find the piece? Thank you

Dylan Castillo - Réponse

Thanks to this guide, I finally was able to clean out 3 and a half years worth of dust from the fan and other areas of my console. Even though this guide was for the revised version, it still helped extensively with my original PS4 (CUH-1102a) Hopefully it wont sound too much like a jet engine at full throttle when I play any game lol

Christopher Newbigging - Réponse

There was no mention of the model of USB control chip soldered to the board. What is that chip for the Playstation 4 1215A model? I need to buy one to repair a PS4 with complete loss of USB function, but cannot unless I know what the make and model of that chip is.

Thank you,

David

David Watt - Réponse

Just fixed my PS with this guide. I had a wall off dust between the fan and the metal grid after it, at first i thought it was broken even bought me another one. The noise was driving me crazy. Finally decided to go in. Either i was gonna wrecked it completely or fix it. I never had opened something like this and with some time and patience now all is quiet again. Great work on the guide.

Step 8, the center screw, all PS4s are now shipping with a black plastic screw that uses a type of hexagon bit. Impossible to remove. I tried on three different PS4 Pros and this plastic screw strips into dust every time, and I tried a hexagon bit, cutting down the screw to fit a flathead, still strips. It's like it's welded to something underneath, doesn't move. Only way to remove it is to use a drill bit and completely drill the plastic out which I have no tools to do so, nor a screw to put in its place. How do you remove this thing? Curse Sony for even thinking about using such a thing.

Erik D - Réponse

Hey so I cleaned out my PS4 and found this.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PS4/comments/c7...

they don’t seem to know what it is so hoping you guys know where this back? It’s the same console as your post

iNoDaWae - Réponse

That’s the power button. It just slides into place

TronicsFix -

This is all good but now to put back together have everything put together and I have a small aluminum piece and I don't remember where it goes…

Can anyone find me a replacement for cuh-1208b power supply !!!!

appuncube - Réponse

Thank you very much. I was able to completely disassemble my ps4 in no less than an hour, althought I think I broke a small part of the wifi connector, but that was my fault anyways for not being careful when removing it. Definitely will rate 5 stars.

So I followed this teardown, the console turns on without issue but now my Blu-ray drive won't recognise my game. It doesn't auto-accept the CD nor does it eject. The cables are connected correctly. Any help?

Ali S - Réponse

Hi tronics…i can pull the power supply from the left side without the four cable…but on the right side is really hard to pull out..did you have a video that you open the power supply ps4 1205 series??

Is this same for PS4 CUH 1216b?

Was told that my southbridge IC needs to be replaced. I have cuh 1206. What model is the southbridge?

iresa aditya - Réponse

looking at the comments, I feel some users opened it their PS4 before fully reading the instructions. The guide is very informative, enough for me to follow it backwards and reassemble my ps4 :)

Eday 244 - Réponse

I took apart my PS4 and realized I lost the loose piece warned on step 20 when I was putting it back together. Does it have any actual significance or will my PS4 be fine without it?

Jonathan Kurt - Réponse

Absolutely fantastic tutorial my friends son has learning impairments and his ps4 is so very important to him.

this tutorial has made it possible for me to fix an issue with thermal paste and clogged up fan and heatsink, verry easy to follow I did not encounter any problems not even the dreaded psu connector!

thanks!!!
