Hello, My PS4 pro power supply capacitor 450V 150uf is blow due to I trying to check with multimeter to find out why my PS4 pro cannot turn on. I plugged to wall outlet and use the multimeter on this capacitor and then it blow! (Back side of the PCB has no damage)
Can I buy new capacitor 450V 150uf and replace the broken one? Is there other thing I have to check? Thank you very much.
Hi, Yes you can certainly replace it. Make sure to have the correct specs. (Side note)if you’re having s hard time finding an exact match, you can allow a tolerance of about 10% higher on your voltage rating. You cannot take something lower than 450V. Capacitance ( uF) needs to be the same. Capacitor have polarity. Make sure to place it the right way. (Let me know if you have a question about that) A quick suggestion, take the old cap off and at least check both sides of it for a short with a multimeter, and check your fuse as well. I hope this helps
