Blue Light Of Death x2

[adamski82]

Hi guys, new to the forum. New to PlayStation actually, converted from Xbox360 and got myself a PS4. It was about a week and a half ago I got it. Bricked out of the box. Flashing blue light, never went white, wouldnt boot into safe mode with the HDD in or out. Called Sony, replacement sent. Got it Saturday past. EXACT SAME THING! Now I dont have great luck at the best of times, but c'mon! Is there anything I'm doing wrong? I tried it on 3 TVs with 4 different HDMI cables. Even tried it with my brothers PS3 power cord after i tried it with the PS4 cord. Could the cord be the problem and did some damage before i tried the PS3 cord? My 360 is still connected to my TV vis composite. Im honestly done in with it . Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Edit: Im currently waiting on my PS4 #3, it'll probably make an apperance between Fri and Mon.

Sorry to hear that mate.
Personally I was so afraid of blue light of death so much that I was hesitant to purchase(Sony does not cover PS4's warranty in here, dont know why).

But I got it and never had any problems with it. May I know which region are you from?
I know its frustrating, but getting a replacement is better than fixing it yourself, it can delay several days, but at least you re getting a healthy product.

I was under the impression that Region 2 consoles have less problem with blue light

anyway keep us updated with your case.
