PS5 Boot Sequences and Possible Causes / Solutions
| PS5 boot sequences and possible causes/solutions | Created by TheCod3r 6th August 2023 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Indication Of | Power Stage | Sleep | Info |
| All Rails Present | 310ma | 7ma | Should attempt to turn on |
| Faulty BIOS | 0ma | 0ma | Flash BIOS (with matching S/N if possible) |
| Blown F7003 fuse | 0ma | 0ma | Check F7003 for continuity |
| Bad SSD or controller | 225ma | 7ma | Check SSD ICs and controller for L/D or reflow. Possibly bad controller IC |
| Bad F7002 or shorted SBV (TLV62090) circuit | 275ma | No Sleep | Check for shorts around F7002 or blown F7002 fuse |
| Shorted 3.3v rail above SBV (TLV62090) IC | 315ma | No Sleep | Check for shorts around WiFi IC/HDMI encoder or inject voltage into inductor above SBV IC (F7002 area) |
| Shorted WiFi IC | High current draw (5a in my case) | No Sleep | Check for shorts around capacitors behind WiFi IC |
| Blown F7001 fuse | 58ma | 7ma after 20 seconds | Check F7001 fuse for continuity. Check Left caps near SBV @ F7502 for short to ground. |
| Shorted inductor around DA9065 | 5ma | No Sleep | Check bottom left inductor next to DA9065 (near F7003) for short to ground. Likely cause would be bad IC or Southbridge |
| Shorted inductor around DA9065 | 5ma for 1 second | 0ma | Check top left inductor next to DA9065 (near F7003) for short to ground. Likely cause would be bad IC or Southbridge |
| Blown F7502 fuse | 24ma | 7ma after 10-20 seconds | Check for continuity on F7502 |
| 12v missing while plugged in | 0ma | 0ma | Check power supply or short to ground on 12v main input |
| Shorted 1.1v rail | Pulsing between 7ma and 12ma | Continuous pulsing | Check for short on bottom middle inductor behind Southbridge. Possible bad Southbridge or shorted cap behind Southbridge |
| Shorted 2v rail | 35ma | No Sleep | Check for short on 2v rail (back of board, bottom inductor near middle left SBV IC) |
| Shorted SOP-23 behind HDMI encoder | 5ma | No Sleep | Check for shorted SOP-23 IC behind MN864739 HDMI encoder. Could be a bad component or a bad HDMI encoder |
| Bad Southbridge most likely caused by power surge on ethernet port | 7ma | No Sleep | Check for shorts on Bothand Magnetics Module (below ethernet port) for shorts. If short on any pin to ground replace Southbridge |
