PlayStation Overheating Repair
A PlayStation that shuts down mid-game, runs its fan at maximum speed, or displays an overheating warning is telling you it needs servicing. At Mr Gadget in Rickmansworth we diagnose and fix PlayStation overheating issues on PS4, PS4 Pro, PS4 Slim, and PS5, caused by dust accumulation, dried thermal paste, or failing cooling fans.
Our overheating service includes full internal disassembly, compressed air and brush cleaning of all heat sinks and fan blades, removal of all old thermal compound from the APU and GDDR6 chips, application of high-quality thermal paste, fan bearing inspection and replacement if needed, and a full 30-minute gaming stress test to confirm temperatures have returned to normal. All work carries a 12-month warranty.
