Sony Computer Entertainment tarafından üretilmiş bir oyun konsolu. PS4 olarak da bilinir. İlk olarak 20 Şubat 2013'de duyurulmuş ve 15 Kasım 2013'te satışa sunulmuştur.
Hi my ps4 turns on then instantly off. I'm 99% sure it's a power supply fault from videos I have seen on youtube. However I would just like to check my power supply with a voltmeter before buying a new one. My power supply model is ADP-240AR.
The PSU provides a permanent +5 VDC on the side connector. This same connector has an input, used to tell the PSU to provide +12 VDC on the 2 big metallic legs soldered on the motherboard.
To make basic tests on the PSU you can:
- remove it from the console
- plug it in the AC with the power cord (from this point, manipulate the PSU only by touching plastic parts!)
- connect a multimeter on the side connector and check that you get +5VDC on some pins (can't remember which ones, just test)
- verify that you have 0 Volt on the 2 holes where the big metallic legs are supposed to be plugged in
- use a wire to shortcut the first and the last pins of the PSU side connector, this should tell the PSU to provide +12VDC
- check with the multimeter that you get those +12VDC on the 2 holes
If yes, your PSU seems to be working.
If +5VDC and/or +12VDC is missing, the PSU is the culprit.
You can find tutorials on the net, just search "PS4 ADP-240 PSU Test" for instance.
I'm looking to do this on a different model. ADP-300CR. Just to clarify, I'm wanting to test for 12 volts on the area where the motherboard prongs insert into the PSU?
Need to short first and second hole on the left side and not the first and last.
I tried first and last. It doesn't work.
I followed instructions of this post and thought my PSU was bad. I received new one, it didn't power my PS4. After googling, I found that you need to short the first and second pins. I tested my old PSU, it was giving 12 volts. Wasted money on a new PSU.
Please update this post. And readers please take note.

Are you familiar with the washer fix? Have you attempted it? What makes you think it's the psu?
