Yesterday I was playing FFXV, in a sudden my PS4 turn off by itself for the first time in 4 years. I check the power button, there're no light on. I try to power up by pressing the controller PS button but it just beep once and nothing. Try press the console power button, same thing just beep. The power button light up when beep but just for few seconds.

I've open up the case to inspect the fan condition, it's running smoothly without any weird noise but the heatsink area is very hot. I'm not sure how hot it can handle, i never open up my PS4 before. I clean and vacuum the dust around the fan, plug back and turn on. It run fine for around 10 minutes, off again...

Recently there's also an update 9.60 i think, could it be the firmware issue? or Hard disk drive issue?

I've replace the power cable but still happen.

Anyone face this problem before? Please share the solution. Thanks.

Thanks for the input but nope, mine doesn't show overheat msg on screen, doesn't beep 3 times before turn off, also no red light on Power button.

It just completely turn off without any indication or warning. Happens during gaming, Netflix and even idling in home screen.

Try check the thermal paste. Replace it if it dry already. If the prob still happen try rebuilt database. If still happen, maybe should check your power supply unit.
