That’s because you’ve given the rubber foot or other malfunctioning pieces time to cool off. Now, if this works, it’s probably only a temporary fix.

Let it sit for an additional two or three minutes.

Hold down the power button for 30 seconds.

This is the first tip you’re going to get from Sony Computer Entertainment if you tell them the problem. Unsurprisingly, Sony wants to know if you’ve tried turning your PS4 on and off again. And with that in mind, let’s get to a few fixes - one that Sony suggests and two that we’ve crowdsourced from a bunch of forums around the Internet. Now, this isn’t the only reason, but it seems like the most common cause. That process can force the foot to wedge itself up into the underside of the PS4 where it will often hit the eject button. That rubber can absorb heat from the PS4, which causes it to expand. Unfortunately, Sony put a rubber foot just underneath the eject button.

Sony has actually fixed this issue in a recent revision of the PlayStation 4 that drops the touch buttons in favor of power and eject buttons that are mechanical and require you to physically depress them.įor the old models, though, the sensitivity of the touch button meant that all it takes a little bit of rubber to activate the eject sequence. The central issue stems from just how sensitive that eject button is. Plus where they used to be attached there's now 5 tiny silver rectangles on the mobo (2 opposite 3), so I guess these 5 wires were some how adhered to those mobo rectangles by a conductive adhesive of some sort.Īny suggestion for the best repair method would be appreciated.Before we get into how to fix the problem, let’s explain some of the things that can cause this to happen. I'm thinking I've made a mistake is because now I cant see anywhere that I can 'plug' the 5 L shaped wires on the bottom of the plastic casing back onto the mobo. Although the pic looks like the plastic casing does come off the mobo as it's at an angle (maybe why I pulled the whole thing out or maybe I did it right).

I then noticed it looks like I've pulled the whole plastic white casing/plug holder (within the orange rectangle) off the mobo rather than just the plug from the casing. However when following the steps backwards I got to step 7 which says 'Remove the 5 wire plug attached from the power supply to the motherboard' & couldn't see how to reattach it. This was a great help after my 2 yr old put a coin in my PS4.
