PlayStation 4 (Pro / Slim / Fat) Repair Specialists
Deep cleaning for loud jet-engine fans, blue light of death, and disc drive problems.
The PS4 is legendary, but after years of gaming in South African conditions, dust buildup turns the fan into an airplane engine, and power surges can cause the dreaded Blue Light of Death (BLOD). We provide full teardown deep cleaning, fresh thermal paste, laser replacements, and power supply repairs.
Common PS4 Problems We Fix
From quick cleaning to complex board fixes, we handle every issue with care and proper testing.
Deep Thermal Cleaning & Fan Noise Silence
We completely disassemble your PS4, ultrasonically clean the heat sink fin block, replace dried-up factory paste with premium Arctic MX-4, and replace worn thermal pads.
- Fan screams so loud you can't hear game audio
- Red light overheating warning
- Sluggish frame rates due to thermal throttling
Blue Light of Death (BLOD) Diagnostics
A pulsing blue light that never turns white means the console is failing its hardware handshake. We check the APU solder balls, power delivery rails, and southbridge chip.
- Blue light pulses indefinitely without showing anything on TV
- Console beeps once and immediately turns off
HDMI Port & Video Chip Fix
We micro-solder high-durability replacement HDMI ports and replace faulty Panasonic HDMI transmitter IC chips if the port was shorted.
- White light on PS4 but no picture on TV
- Bent pins inside the HDMI socket
- Resolution stuck at 480p
Disc Drive Laser & Auto-Eject Fix
We replace tired optical lasers that struggle to read dual-layer Blu-ray discs and fix the capacitive touch eject sensor glitch on fat PS4 models.
- Beeps 3 times and spits the disc out randomly
- Unrecognized disc error on games and movies

“Service was excellent and quick. My PS5 is as good as new.”
Themba Sithole
“A bad thunderstorm knocked power out in our street, and when it kicked back on, my Series X wouldn't turn on at all. ConsoleFix fixed the blown power board parts and saved me R10,000 on having to buy a whole new console. Super friendly service on WhatsApp.”
Anrich B.
“Both my PS5 controllers had crazy stick drift in Warzone—my gun kept aiming straight up at the sky. Upgraded both to magnetic Hall Effect sticks. The drift is 100% gone, zero deadzone needed, and courier collection in Cape Town was effortless.”

“Really lovely experience. Lovely staff and we were kept up to date on the progress throughout. Pretty seamless. So far, no issues with the repair and service of our PS5. Will definitely use them again.”
Jacaranda De Klerk
“My son jammed a cheap phone charger into the Switch and bent the pins inside. It wouldn't charge or turn on. Courier collected it from our home in Port Elizabeth, and 3 days later it was back working like new on our TV.”
Leanne P.
“Great service, very honest, their work is impeccable. I've been with them for 6 years. Great service, they fixed my PS4 and it's still working today, and they recently repaired my PS5.”
