Thread watched [PS5 EDM-040] Beep, blue light glowing then OFF, sometimes can go to SAFE MODE

Dear all,

My PS5 Slim EDM-040 does these things :

  • Powers on and stays on blue glowing light then goes OFF after ~10/15 seconds
  • Can go to SAFE MODE (fixed white light) and show something on the screen : ask to connect a pad then press PS >>> nothing more, PS5 suddenly powers OFF by itself

​Here are the output error codes :

  • 80830019 > Low > Known Unknown 80830019
  • 80000009 > Low > Hardware - AC In Detect - Unexpected Power Loss or Shutdown Failure
  • 80830019 > Low > Known Unknown 80830019
  • 808E8001 > High > Not found in list.
  • 808E0109 > Low > Known Unknown 808E0109 (TPM)
  • 808E0005 > Low > Abnormal Hcmd - Communication error : Wait SIG1 Error - A cause is hardware or software bug.
  • C0020303 > Low > APU Not Responding - Trying Init or Reboot - 3 - (User Submitted: System wont start Blue Light Flashes), Check Fuses F3501, F7501
  • C0020303 > Low > APU Not Responding - Trying Init or Reboot - 3 - (User Submitted: System wont start Blue Light Flashes), Check Fuses F3501, F7501
  • 80000009 > Low > Hardware - AC In Detect - Unexpected Power Loss or Shutdown Failure
    NOTE : ERROR CODE IN BOLD > The only error code that shows up after a cold boot (cold in terms of temperature)

OBSERVATIONS :

  • Complicated to go into SAFE MODE and even if reaching it, console seems to freeze
  • APU is definitely lacking liquid metal but doesn’t looks like it is cracked
  • No PCB traces indicating anything wrong (like reballing / flux / heating
  • Following fuses tested OK : F3501, F3505, F5401, F7001, F7002, F7003, F7004, F7005

If someone has any idea, thanks for your help !
