A year ago I got myself a used PS4 and it always ran great until I didn't have a TV anymore. Then it started:
The PS4 had turned itself on in the middle of the night. The beeping woke me up at night and saw the light from the bedroom.
Didn't have a TV at the time, which is why I didn't plug the PS4 in. We have already come to the thesis "residual current", but the console had been without it for at least 2 months.
In the meantime I have reconnected a TV and the console to the power. Every now and then it turns on at night, but also during the day while I watch Netflix, it just switches off. I've already exchanged the power supply unit, that's not the reason, and I also have a new controller because I thought the old one was faulty and activated the PS4.
It last switched on on Tuesday last week when I was playing with friends on the PC. Think she felt neglected.
Could that be a poltergeist? Was that why the previous owner sold them?
So we had a similar problem because too much dirt had accumulated in the Ps4, among other things in the drive on the sensor that pulls in the disc.
just screw it on and make it completely clean (very laborious) then it runs normally again like a 1.
otherwise always take the power off 😂🚀
Ok I'll try xD on the weekend
Perhaps automatic updates are activated when the system is switched off? Then it also switches on… And maybe vice versa the sleep mode if there's no controller input… You can set everything…
