It is frustrating when technology does not function as intended. The reasons for these malfunctions can result in spending hours trying to fix your device or even hundreds of dollars to restore it to its proper functioning state. So, if you are experiencing difficulties with turning on your PS4, here is some important information that can help you troubleshoot and resolve the issue, or at least identify the root cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-won-t-my-ps4-turn-on-at-all\"><span id=\"why-wont-my-ps4-turn-on-at-all\">Why Won&#8217;t My PS4 Turn On at all?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a multitude of potential issues that may be causing the PS4 to not power on. One possible culprit could be a malfunctioning hard drive within your device. Alternatively, it could be a software-related issue that is causing trouble. Lastly, it is worth considering the power source as a potential source of the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In certain cases, the replacement of the hard drive might be necessary, while in others, a straightforward solution such as utilizing an alternative power source could suffice. That is precisely why it holds utmost significance to engage in troubleshooting procedures prior to seeking assistance from professionals, as this prudent approach can help you avoid unnecessary expenditures in identifying the root cause of the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-won-t-my-ps4-turn-on-after-update\"><span id=\"why-wont-my-ps4-turn-on-after-update\">Why Won\u2019t My PS4 Turn On After Update?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, we will address a rare issue that occurs when your PlayStation 4 fails to start after completing an update. You may find yourself eager to go online and pursue the latest monster, only to discover that your PS4 won&#8217;t start or that your console failed to restart after completing an update. Unfortunately, this issue indicates that your operating system has become corrupted, and as a result, you will need to restore it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-turn-on-my-ps4-after-the-update\"><span id=\"how-to-turn-on-my-ps4-after-the-update\">How to Turn On My PS4 After the Update<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are ways to turn on your PS4 after an update:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To enter Safe Mode, press and hold the power button until the second chime sounds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the Initialize option that does not contain the system update file<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Try initializing with an update<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disconnect the power and HDMI cables for approximately 30 seconds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select Rebuild Database, and the system will restart and function as if it were brand new.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Install the updated file on a flash drive, and everything will be in order.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-fix-a-ps4-that-won-t-turn-on\"><span id=\"how-to-fix-a-ps4-that-wont-turn-on\">How to Fix a PS4 That Won\u2019t Turn On<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are ways to fix a PS4 that won\u2019t turn on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-cut-the-ps4-s-power-supply\"><span id=\"1-cut-the-ps4s-power-supply\">#1. Cut the PS4\u2019s Power Supply<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove the PS4&#8217;s power cord, wait 30 seconds, and then reconnect it. You can try powering on the system again after plugging it back in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-restart-your-playstation-4\"><span id=\"2-restart-your-playstation-4\">#2. Restart your PlayStation 4<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the console isn&#8217;t actually off, turn it off by holding the power button. Once the lights have stopped blinking, which should take around 30 seconds, unplug the console and leave it alone for at least 20 minutes. While the system is still unplugged, press and hold the power button one more time. If the console still won&#8217;t power on, plug it back in and try again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-swap-out-the-cable-that-supplies-power-if-you-can\"><span id=\"3-swap-out-the-cable-that-supplies-power-if-you-can\">#3. Swap Out the Cable That Supplies Power if You Can<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have access to a different power cable, you should try switching to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-change-the-outlet-or-power-strip\"><span id=\"4-change-the-outlet-or-power-strip\">#4. Change the Outlet or Power Strip<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A faulty power strip or surge protector could be the cause of your problems. First, test whether any other devices you try to use with the socket your PS4 is plugged in to function properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-remove-the-dust-from-your-game-system\"><span id=\"5-remove-the-dust-from-your-game-system\">#5. Remove the Dust From Your Game System<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Clean your PlayStation 4 of dust by blowing compressed air through all of the openings. The amount of dust on the console will determine whether or not you can clean it without disassembling it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-insert-a-disc-and-see-whether-it-works\"><span id=\"6-insert-a-disc-and-see-whether-it-works\">#6. Insert a Disc and See Whether It Works<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the PS4 detects the disc when you insert it and turn it on without your intervention, you should be good to go. If you can&#8217;t, it&#8217;s possible that the issue is with the system files or the hard disk and that booting into safe mode will fix it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-start-your-playstation-4-in-safe-mode\"><span id=\"7-start-your-playstation-4-in-safe-mode\">#7. Start Your PlayStation 4 in \u201cSafe Mode.\u201d<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When a PlayStation 4 fails to boot properly, you can try restarting it in &#8220;safe mode,&#8221; which boots the system with the bare minimum of features enabled. The console must be completely powered down before entering safe mode. Then, after hearing the console beep twice, release the power button. The last step is to plug in a controller via USB and activate the PS button. A software issue is likely the case if safe mode boots successfully. If nothing else helps, try reverting back to factory settings or updating the system software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-take-out-your-ps4-s-hard-disk\"><span id=\"8-take-out-your-ps4s-hard-disk\">#8. Take Out Your PS4\u2019s Hard Disk<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If starting the PS4 without the drive doesn&#8217;t work, try doing so in safe mode. Even if your PS4&#8217;s hard disk is malfunctioning, it will boot normally or into safe mode. Possible solutions include powering down the console and reinstalling the hard drive; however, drive replacement is most likely. If you remove the hard drive, the warranty may be nullified. If your PlayStation console is still under warranty, contact Sony first to see if any repairs are covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-9-inspect-for-any-insect-activity\"><span id=\"9-inspect-for-any-insect-activity\">#9. Inspect for Any Insect Activity<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>PlayStation 4 consoles attract actual insects because of their warm, dark interiors and big vent holes for heat to escape. There is a significant likelihood that insects have made their way into your console if you&#8217;ve ever had a problem with them in your gaming environment. In that scenario, taking apart the console and giving it a good cleaning might get it working again. Perhaps the bugs that have settled there have shorted out the internal components of your console.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-10-verify-that-your-on-off-switch-is-wired-properly-from-the-inside\"><span id=\"10-verify-that-your-on-off-switch-is-wired-properly-from-the-inside\">#10. Verify That Your On-off Switch Is Wired Properly From the Inside<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Did disassembling and cleaning your PlayStation 4 render it inoperable? It&#8217;s simple to reinstall the PS4&#8217;s cover in a way that renders the power button inoperable. The power button makes use of a small metal contact to push a button on the inside circuit board. Try removing the cover once more and looking at the metal prong near the power button. If the metal piece isn&#8217;t torn off, be careful when replacing the cover that it doesn&#8217;t make contact with the power button on the interior of the console.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, never disassemble a brand-new console just to make sure the power button works. If you try to fix the problem by removing the power button and breaking it, you may make it worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-11-substitute-the-power-source\"><span id=\"11-substitute-the-power-source\">#11. Substitute the Power Source<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your PlayStation 4 won&#8217;t turn on, a faulty power supply could be to blame. It&#8217;s not much harder to replace than a PS4 hard drive, but without the right equipment and expertise, you might not be able to tell for sure what&#8217;s wrong. As a result, you should probably get some expert advice before deciding to replace the power supply on your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You may want to see: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/how-to\/how-to-get-a-refund-on-playstation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How To Get a Refund on PlayStation (Detailed Guide)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ps4-won-t-turn-on-but-beeps\"><span id=\"ps4-wont-turn-on-but-beeps\">PS4 Won\u2019t Turn On but Beeps<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The PS4 is considered to be one of the most powerful gaming consoles currently available on the market. In addition to providing access to a wide range of games, the PlayStation offers the ability to browse the internet and create your own PlayStation Network account. It is also recognized for its durability and excellent controller support. However, it is important to note that you may still encounter hardware issues with your console. There have been reports from users who have experienced issues where their PS4 emits a beeping sound but fails to power on, or in some cases, their PS4 simply does not turn on at all. Thus, they include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-start-the-console-nbsp\"><span id=\"1-start-the-console\">#1. Start the Console&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your PlayStation 4 won&#8217;t power on but instead beeps, simply restarting it should fix the problem. You can accomplish this in one of two ways. Both the controller and the main unit can be used to reset the PS4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-flip-the-playstation-on-its-side-nbsp\"><span id=\"2-flip-the-playstation-on-its-side\">#2. Flip the PlayStation on its Side&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Putting your PS4 on its side and powering it on may also help. Some users have reported improvement after using this, so it&#8217;s worth a shot despite the strange appearance. If you want to keep your console from tipping over, you should do this on a level surface. Then, power it on to check whether that&#8217;s the end of the PS4&#8217;s won&#8217;t turn on but beeps problem. Tap the console near the power hookup softly for another trick. When it hasn&#8217;t been used for a while, dust and other dirt can accumulate, making it unlikely that it will function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-remove-dust-from-the-console-s-vents\"><span id=\"3-remove-dust-from-the-consoles-vents\">#3. Remove Dust From The Console&#8217;s Vents<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s a good probability that your console has gathered some dust since you last used it. After giving it a thorough cleaning on the outside, check to see that dust and debris haven&#8217;t accumulated and blocked any air vents. Due to poor ventilation, dust can quickly lead to dangerously high internal temperatures. If dust has settled into the air ducts, you can clean it out with a soft brush and some compressed air. Test whether or not the console boots normally after cleaning it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-put-the-ps-button-on-your-ps4-controller-s-d-pad-and-plug-it-into-your-computer\"><span id=\"4-put-the-ps-button-on-your-ps4-controllers-d-pad-and-plug-it-into-your-computer\">#4. Put the PS Button on Your PS4 Controller\u2019s D-Pad and Plug It Into Your Computer<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To power up your PlayStation 4, you can temporarily connect your wireless DualShock controller through USB. Test the console&#8217;s power status by pressing the PS button on the controller once it&#8217;s connected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-connect-its-power-cord-straight-to-the-wall\"><span id=\"5-connect-its-power-cord-straight-to-the-wall\">#5. Connect Its Power Cord Straight to the Wall<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your PlayStation 4 doesn&#8217;t have enough juice to boot up, this could be the result. In addition, when multiple appliances are plugged into a single power strip, the power delivered by each outlet is greater. Make sure the power cord is plugged in completely to provide a steady current.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-contact-the-playstation-help\"><span id=\"6-contact-the-playstation-help\">#6. Contact the PlayStation Help<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Contacting PlayStation Support to see if they can help fix your PS4 is your final resort. Their skilled personnel are competent to detect the issue and fix it effectively, but the cost can be high compared to if you did it yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-you-know-if-your-ps4-power-supply-is-bad\"><span id=\"how-do-you-know-if-your-ps4-power-supply-is-bad\">How Do You Know If Your PS4 Power Supply Is Bad?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The power supply inside the PS4 is occasionally defective and must be changed. Here&#8217;s a simple method to put this to the test: Try plugging something else, such as a lamp, into the same outlet as your console. If the lamp illuminates, there is most certainly a problem with the console&#8217;s power source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-can-losing-power-damage-ps4\"><span id=\"can-losing-power-damage-ps4\">Can Losing Power Damage PS4?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Power outages have the potential to cause significant issues for your beloved PS4, potentially leading to the unfortunate loss of valuable data. In the unfortunate event of a power outage coinciding with the PS4 being in use, an unforeseen consequence may arise. The console, abruptly deprived of power, may undergo an unexpected shutdown, potentially resulting in the corruption of valuable data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-does-my-ps4-suddenly-lose-power\"><span id=\"why-does-my-ps4-suddenly-lose-power\">Why Does My PS4 Suddenly Lose Power?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most prevalent issues that can lead to the unexpected shutdown of a PlayStation 4 is overheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-causes-ps4-power-supply-failure\"><span id=\"what-causes-ps4-power-supply-failure\">What Causes PS4 Power Supply Failure?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Common power supply problems with the PS4 include a shortage in the internal power supply unit due to the accumulation of dust, dirt, and even insects. Power surges can cause problems with various components of the PS4, such as the fuse and power control device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-much-power-does-a-ps4-need-to-turn-on\"><span id=\"how-much-power-does-a-ps4-need-to-turn-on\">How Much Power Does a PS4 Need to Turn On?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The average power consumption of a PS4 is approximately 100 to 150 watts per hour. The typical monthly electricity usage of a PlayStation 4 (PS4) ranges from 60 to 90 kilowatt-hours (kWh). The approximate yearly price of a PS4 ranges from $14.70 to $24.50, with a projected wattage consumption of 90 to 150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-it-ok-to-leave-ps4-on-for-24-hours\"><span id=\"is-it-ok-to-leave-ps4-on-for-24-hours\">Is It Ok to Leave PS4 on for 24 Hours?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can safely leave your PlayStation 4 (or PS5) turned on for extended periods of time without any risk of failure or damage, as long as you ensure there is ample airflow around the console.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-references\"><span id=\"references\">References<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/businessinsider.com\">businessinsider.com<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>techsolutions.support.com<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>lifewire.com<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-related-posts\"><span id=\"related-posts\">Related Posts<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/how-to\/how-to-get-a-refund-on-playstation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How To Get a Refund on PlayStation (Detailed Guide)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/technology\/can-you-use-xbox-one-controller-on-xbox-series-x\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Can You Use Xbox One Controller on Xbox Series X<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/technology\/how-to-connect-xbox-controller-to-xbox-all-you-should-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Connect Xbox Controller to Xbox: All You Should Know!!!<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/gaming\/how-to-connect-a-xbox-one-controller\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HOW TO CONNECT A XBOX ONE CONTROLLER: EASY Guide!<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/how-to\/how-to-convert-powerpoint-to-google-slides\/\">How to Convert PowerPoint to Google Slides: Step-By-Step Guide<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wondering why your PS4 won&#8217;t turn on after an update?
