Riparazione Antenna Bluetooth PS4 danneggiata da caduta o difettosa

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for making this with great pictures and everything. This was exactly the fix I needed for my bad reception and disconnection problems. For everyone that will try this. It is very important tho have those spaces in the metal. There are two parts to the cable. The silvery thread like wires,and the solid wire covered by yellowish insulation rubber. The threads needs to be sodered on one side, and the solid wire on he other side/tab. Don not have the soder from either wires touching. Hope this further helps,and thanks again bdcallen69,and two other contributors. You are my heroes today.

Thank you all for the comments. Im glad I could help you all out.

I appreciate the point in the right direction, thank you for that. I just stripped about an inch off and tossed the antenna, works great even lose in the system. Went from barely two feet to over 40. Maybe I'll attach it to the antenna and see if distance is increased.

Great guide! You saved my 4day weekend. Kid tripped over Ethernet cable and controller started wiggin' out. Followed the guide and even cleaned my fan, so it was really a blessing in disguise as my console runs quietly like in the before time!!!

Hardest part was getting through Walmart on Black Friday (actually Thanksgiving evening around 6pm... c'mon people) to get a soldering iron. Anyway, was afraid I wouldn't get to raid and help Guardians in Destiny get to the lighthouse by getting rekt in Trials of Osiris! Thanks again!

To be frank I am not particularly clear on this. The reason being is the wire is a Shielded cable.

So, is the Shield soldered on the first piece and the inner wire soldered on the second piece

OR

is the Shield removed and only the inner wire soldered ??

Thank You for the awesome fix, first time I did not realize their were 2 wires and of course the fix didn't work. After I realizedthere were 2 wires like a coaxle TV antenna wire the fix worked great! Again Thank You Very Much! Also tried it like someone posted about not using the metal at all just stripped 1" of wire & 1/8" of shielding wire so two wires aaren't touching, this worked also, No Solder Needed! Unbelievable Son & I lived with this nightmare for 3 years, mostly he did. Unit took a fall His Freshman Year at College. I had thought maybe a broken PC board(green board)!

This guide was a %#*@ lifesaver, if you're having connection problems with your ds4 controller to the ps4 this guide will more than likely solve your problems, in my case it wasn't the solder point, it was the opposite end of the wire that was disconnected from the little round fuse under the power bank, I simply had to attach it on! Thank you to the creator of this guide !!!

So I did this and now my controller can be used across the room, which is &&^&^$^ awesome. BUT now every few minutes the screen will randomly go black or have white/gray static lines going through the screen for a brief second. Which isn't the worst, but still a bit annoying. Is it possible I did anything wrong, and if so how could I fix it? It's not impossible that it's something unrelated to this guide, like my HDMI cable, or something.

Hi ! I verify thee antena and its fine but my controller disconnects when I plug on headphones! Please HELP! And also disconnects randomly …..what can I do????!!!

My controller sometimes just shuts off and lags if i is connected by usb cable the problems get worst. I just checked my antenna and it looks fine so is there anyone who knows what coulb be wrong and how to fix it? (Iknow my english isn't the best but it's my second language so forgive me for that one)

Hello.

I have the same problem my controller randomly shuts off and sometimes lags for like 1 minute and then everything works correctly again. When i connect it by usb cable the lag get's worst. I just checked my antenne which looks fine to me. So if anyone has a clue what's going on please tell me.

Its probably the bluetooth chip if this fix is not working. I cba to even try this because ill probably have to order a new chip instead.

Just did this and and it worked! I’ve abandoned my PS4 after it fell a year ago because controller would lag, disconnect, give random commands etc. I went to Sony they said they would do it for like 150$ I was like &&^& no and I did it for free now so thanks author.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! IT REALY WORKS!!! After re-soldering my antenna, the controller working perfectly

do I need to strip the wire first at all? i just re soldered and it still has a lag issue. is there anywhere in the UK I can order a new antenna from?

wondering if this will help my controllers from not working if the light beam is covered up from my legs being crossed. no physical damage has been done to the ps4 but it is an old version. the destiny 1 edition that was just the game and the white console XD. i may have to try this

Thank you, you saved me a lot of money and time, had to buy only the soldering iron. Had this problem for six months till I decided to open the ps4 myself. To others, bear in mind that the cable is coaxial like, only a little tiny, and one end should not touch the another, because it is an antenna! With patience, you'll succeed. Thanks again!

Nice writeup. Very well done. I was getting issues with my controllers. If I was withing 4ft it was okay, but further than that it became very poor, laggy and disconnecting. Never been dropped, took it apart following the guide, great information on tools required.

My antenna was fine, no broken wire at the end. However the plug that goes to the main board was a bit discoloured and tarnished. Cleaned up and reseated. Works like a dream now, far end of the room still working great.

Disgusting that a new console would require rework to repair crappy workmanship a low level QC person could have caught and obviously there is no engineering in these pieces of $@$*.

I would try this but the issue only occurs when I connect MY hotspot to the PS4, everyone else has a hotspot and they work fine, but mine specifically does not work, leading me to believe that there is an issue elsewhere l. Any suggestions?

Hallo leute, gleiches problem!! habs angelötet und gleicher scheiss!! weiss wer, ob die ps4 alle bluetooth sticks kennt?? ihr müsst euch nen bluetooth stick ab2.0 mindestens besorgen und mitm cotroller verbinden!! gibts a anleitung auf youtube!! ich brauche bitte hille bei meinem problem!!!

mfg. Sip

Super!!! Vielen Dank.

Is it safe to do it by your self?… cause I have this problem that my ps4 can't recognize the controllers and I can't connect them with the console.. I want to fix it by my self cause I can't sent it for fix to someone that knows how to do it because of quarantine

I don't have a solder iron, and I got a new antenna, and my controller is STILL disconnecting at random.

Did I do something wrong when installing it, or is the new antenna not new at all.

Yeah. I’ve rebuilt a few of them and the main issue a lot of people have is the antenna gets separated between the two points. You can either clean it up and resolder it or order one on Amazon for $10. Repair is super simple and quick, disconnecting the power supply is the only tedious task (but once you disconnect it the first time it’ll be easy going forth)

I demolished mine the other day by opening it up to apply thermal paste and new pads to my PS4, no fan sound at Least but now my audio headset works like crap when I’m playing games and my controller gets disconnected.

so whichever comes in first, the flux or a replacement cable.

if it does not work, look at your solder job or look at the replacement cable. Cheers

Hola, desafortunadamente sufro del inconveniente con mi WiFi/Bluetooth de mi mando, al jugar en línea mi mando se descontrola y realiza movimientos que no realizo al jugar. Procedí a soldar la pieza como se muestra en el ejemplo, ahora puedo jugar online y pero sufro del mismo problema de vez en cuando. Alguien experto me podría decir que puede ser el problema, o mejor debo comprar la pieza de wi-fi / Bluetooth nueva?

does this work with ps4 pro?
