First, disconnect any cables, then blow compressed air all over the controller to remove any immediate dust. Thankfully, cleaning a PS4 controller is much more simple. If you have a PS4 Slim or PS4 Pro, there are no screws. If you have a later original PS4, there's just one sticker and one screw. Then safely keep them together and set them aside. These hold the outer case in place, so unscrew these using a T8 or T9 Torx screwdriver - we recommend Teckman ($6.59, Amazon). If you have an original PS4 as pictured here, you should notice four screws on the rear of the console, beneath the warranty stickers. If it’s still under warranty, it shouldn’t need cleaning.Ħ. Remember, if it’s still under warranty, contact customer services rather than cleaning the internals yourself. If this is your first time cleaning your PS4, and you have an original PS4, you’re going to need to remove the warranty stickers from the rear, not least because you'll also need to remove the screws beneath them. First make sure you’ve cleared some space and have a good source of light to see what you’re doing.ĥ. Now comes the tricky part: cleaning the internals. This clears away any potential dust your PS4 may collect once back in place.Ĥ. While you have this cloth to hand, wipe the surface and around the area where your PS4 sits as well. Next, run a dry microfiber cloth along the surfaces of your PS4 to get rid of obvious dust. 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.3. 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.
