Hey there, as the title says I need help to identify a component on a ps4 mainbaord.
I found the PS4 Pro in the trash with a 1tb hdd inside that actually works :)
Now trying to fix the console.

There was a coroded spot on the mainboard and a component only hanging on one leg. I think it was a zener diode with "5E" marking.
Sadly it flew away and I cant find it....
I cleaned the spot and both pads are ok. Can someone tell me what component is missing and what values it has ?

Thank you in advance

Who the heck simply throws away a PS4 Pro? That's actually a pretty nice find. 🙂

Hope you get it working and has a low firmware (9.00 or less).

Was absolutely crazy to throw that away... But my luck!
The console is working again. I have found a "5E" Zener Diode on a standard ps4 donorboard.
Firmware is sadly 9.51 and the 1TB HDD has alot of bad sectors. I swaped that hdd to another 1TB and reinstalled the system software. Everything works perfectly now :) Even the housing of the console is in pretty good shape.

Couldn't you attempt to do a downgrade and see what's the previous firmware, if possible? Modded Warfare made a video about how to.



You certainly seem talented to do so.

Thanks for the link. I already thought the same thing.
Maybe its worth to do so. I think I'll give it a try.
