My first gen ps4 vr would not power up 80% of the time. worked great when it was on but would not start. I did this trick using a single strand of a scrap 16g wire, i did not solder it on just folded it to test and plugged it in. The vr processor went red and my screen went black... tried a second time to the same thing. Third times the charm it works. I'll probably solder this connection one day but for now its plug and play lol. Thanks bud!

Yeah but since power button is just a normal NO pushbutton...what u did there makes the button shortcircuited..like its always being pressed...i hope it wont brake it that way :/ lol i was thinking about installing another button directly on my headset so i wont have to plug the cables all the time...great tip tho! Thx a lot

The trunk line to the headset contains around 20 wires approx 26 guage. When I disassembled the pushbutton I couldn't find an issue with the button itself and tried to short circuit across the button... but no luck. I noticed about 3-3.5 vdc traveling through the cable shielding which shouldn't be happening. My theory is that the shielding is coming in contact with one or a few conductors at the plug or headset end. I do not have a full explanation of what is causing the issue but I do know that the headset is still working and at this point the processor will likely overheat and blow a fuse before the headset stops working again. I would love to see a few others trying an individual component fix. I've seen a few people who are buying new circuit boards and new cords but I wanted a low or no-cost option.

I managed to pry open the button thingie on the cabel...and i eas measuring conductivity with a multimeter and only the power button on the circuit board has no passtrough between contacts so i guess thats the problem...it seems harder to press than other buttons aswell...ill try to solder another button to it and hopefully it will work..haha imma let u know :P I would like that there were more videos like yours on YT..it really helps! I just hope Sony does a bit longer tryouts at their products before they release them :/

You're processing unit (black box) is overheating. Check the fan in the back to see if its spinning. If not try two things: throw the unit in the fridge for a few hours or freezer for about an hour and see if it powers up, if it does than you may need to check your fan to see if it has any loose wires. If your unit does not start than you will need to locate a fuse on the circuit board which likely has blown due to a lack of airflow and either replace it or solder a wire over the fuse. The latter fix is quick but means that you're device doesn't have any protection if your electrical flow does anything funky in the future.

I couldn't isolate the issue, however there is definitely a problem in the cable. There are about 20 individual wires in the cable and I know I had a short across at least one since I was showing voltage on the shielding, but I didn't want to strip the entire cable to find the culprit. The button itself functioned as it should when I metered for open and closed. I would speculate that the Gen 1 needs better strain where it connects to the processor and/or headset.

Your unit is probably overheating. Check to see if the fan starts to spin up after it is powered on. If the fan has failed then the processor has likely blown a fuse on the circuit board. If you are comfortable enough with electronics you can use a multimeter to find the faulty fuse and (A) swap it out (difficult and requires soldering) or (B) bypass the fuse by jumping a small wire over it (this is not recommended as it makes your unit much more vulnerable in the future... and still requires soldering)

Try a few different USB cables. Plug them into your PS4 while it's turned on and try charging your phone or PS4 controller. If the cord works check the outlet on the processing unit. If it's loose you might need to resolder the connections on the board.
