PlayStation 5 Pro CMOS Board Replacement

Shut down your PlayStation and unplug all cables and accessories.

Remove any stands supporting your console and lay it down so the right side is facing up.

To remove a cover, firmly pull up the front edge to release the clips.

Remove the cover.

Use the same process to remove the three remaining covers.

Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the 17.1 mm‑long screw securing the expansion slot cover.

Use your fingers to lift the expansion slot cover near the notch by the screw hole and remove it.

Use your fingers to remove the plastic cover hiding the fan cables connector.

Gently pull the fan cables out from under their plastic clip on the frame.

Firmly grip the fan cables' white connector head and pull it straight up and out of its socket.

Use a T8 Torx Security screwdriver to remove the four screws securing the fan:

One 31.7 mm‑long screw

Two 21.5 mm‑long screws

One 11.5 mm‑long screw

Use your fingers to grab the fan by its vents and lift it straight up to remove it.

Insert the fan so its cables are near their connector.

A tamper-evident sticker hides one of the right‑side inner shell screws.

Use tweezers to peel up the sticker until you can access the screw underneath.

Use your fingers to unclip and remove the plastic grille near the fan recess.

Use a T8 Torx Security screwdriver to remove the 10 screws securing the right‑side inner shell:

Four 18.8 mm‑long screws

Two 18.6 mm‑long screws

Four 31.7 mm‑long screws

Lift the right‑side inner shell straight up and remove it.

Use a pair of angled tweezers to firmly grip the sides of the CMOS board connector, holding the tweezers as close to the connector as possible to get a good grip.

Pull the connector straight up and out of its socket to disconnect it.

Use your fingers to lift the CMOS board off the small metal nubs and pull it toward the center of your console to remove it.
