Last night in the middle of a round of Overwatch 2, the ps5 randomly cut off. New outlet, new cable tried, totally unresponsive. No lights, no beeps as long as I hold it.
Questa è una buona domanda?

Probably not it, but first thing to try is to make sure the wall outlet is not tripped. Second that the power cord is plugged in and that its not broken. (Ideally by uusing another PS5 cord that works on another unit). If, not possible to test it with a multimeter. Is all good, move on to the unit, try turning on with the working/tested controller(in case the issue is with the power button on the unit.). If nothing, then its time to over the cover and review for possible damage/blown fuses etc, and start testing. Do not open unless you are planning to learn how to fix it and be safe doing it. good luck, hope its just unplugged- happens more often than one thinks…

Ive tried a different power cord and different wall outlet. Controller doesn't turn it on. Are there tutorials for diagnosing and fixing broken fuses? Or could it be the power supply?
I just fix by trial and error. You need to have a multimeter handy. then unplug the unit (obviously don't want to be electrocuted) and then open it up - it's broken anyways, heh not much to loose. And first inspect for any visible damage (dark spots on the board etc.) then I would try searching on youtube. Sometimes also don't worry that the video is not in English as a lot of Russians, Chinese and Indians do amazing repair videos. And just follow the steps and try figuring out that's not working. If it is not turning on, means power is not being supplied, follow the power lines on the circuit board. I have not personally repaired any PS5 yet. Working on the induction stove at the moment. Learning as I go. Fixed and learned a ton this way.
I’m having the same issue, i went to a buddy’s house and tried his cord that works on his ps5 and I moved it to 3 different spots in my house, no light no beep nothing it just died as I was playing fallout 76. I want to look into how to tear it apart since I have no warranty, please share how to.

I'm am having same problems with my ps5 I went to play and nothing won't turn on no noise no lights no nothing tried some of the things I seen online to do but still nothing
This just happened to me. I have the warranty thankfully! But sending my PS5 in for repairs or replacement should not take place in less than one year. There was no warning no over heat nothing. In fact I still use my PS4 to watch movies and stuff as to not over use the 5. Was playing GTA online for PS5 bc it was $10. Never had an issue the system just shut off out of nowhere. Tried everything and it's a brick. This is ridiculous!

Played mine last night, and now it won't turn on. Literally had it for 3 weeks and it just crapped out.

Yoooo, the EXACT same thing happened to me and haven't been able to figure it out. I was also playing Overwatch 2 and it blacked out. I got it to turn on a few times throughout the next few days but it eventually would black out again, now it is just a sack of potatoes.

@chasephillips at first I didn't find anything with anyone saying anything similar to what happened to me. Now I'm seeing it more and more. I guess I'm lucky I have the warranty. But I'm never buying a console from a place that doesn't offer in store protection plans again. If I got it at Best Buy instead of PC Richards I wouldn't be waiting for a box from Sony in the mail. Not really trusting sending something I paid $600 for with the receipt and just trusting they sending something back. 🤷

Just happened with my sons PS5. No issues with the unit bought 2 months ago for Christmas. Suddenly it died and now nothing. I tried all the basics such as unplugging, moving it to another tv, etc. Nothing.

SAME! Happened to me 2 weeks ago. Was playing on it the night before. Powered it fully down with no issues. Went to play it 2 days later (after being off!) and it wouldn't turn on at all. No beeps, lights, prompts, warnings. Nothing. Its brand new. Bought it 3 months ago. Luckily, still under warranty and I mailed it over to Sony once I got the box. Now im just waiting....
Some people are saying its an overheating issue which is totally not true. My console was VERY clean and on the top of my entertainment system, which is also regularly cleaned/dusted. VERY frustrated with this situation.
