Hey guys! I have a ps4 pro (CUH-7215 / NVG-003) that wasn’t turning on at all. I cleaned up the corrosion on the board and on the power connector. Once I did that, I got the console to beep and flash a blue power light that would turn off after 1.5 seconds with no fan spin at all. Pretty sure the PSU was bad (see image), so I bought a new one.

While waiting for the power supply to come in, I was still itching to see if I could find out if it was a different issue by probing it with the multimeter. And I must have shorted something in doing so because now I can’t get the console to beep with blue light anymore. The new PSU doesn’t change anything either.

So I feel terrible knowing I must have broke something with it plugged in and shorted something or something like that. But I want to fix it or find the issue if I can.

Based on the pictures and descriptions I gave, can anyone smarter than me tell me how I can find where this short may be? I’m having trouble finding things online for this specific board. I will update this description as I test more things, and please ask questions if I haven’t provided enough detail.

Thanks so much for your help!!
