Change of internal fan for PS5
You likely need to exchange (replace) the internal fan on your PlayStation 5 if you notice any of the following signs:
- Overheating and Automatic Shutdown: The PS5 shows the warning “Your PS5 is too hot. Turn off your PS5 and wait until the temperature goes down,” and then quickly shuts down, often within minutes of gameplay. This usually indicates the fan is not cooling properly or not spinning at all.
- Fan Not Spinning: When you remove the PS5 covers or listen closely, you may find the fan does not spin even when the console is under load. This can be confirmed by observing the fan directly or carefully testing if it moves freely.
- Loud or Unusual Fan Noise: The fan may produce grinding, rattling, or other abnormal noises indicating worn bearings or mechanical failure. Sometimes the fan runs loudly because it is struggling to cool the system due to damage or dust buildup.
- Intermittent or Noisy Operation: The fan spins irregularly, stops intermittently, or runs constantly at high speed even when the console is idle, signaling a faulty fan or related hardware issue.
- Physical Damage or Dust Buildup: Excessive dust that cleaning cannot fix or liquid damage to the fan can cause it to fail and require replacement.
- Games Crashing or FPS Drops: Overheating caused by fan failure can lead to degraded performance, game crashes, or frame rate drops.
