Many PlayStation 4 owners have been experiencing a number of issues such as, random console shutdowns, audio/visual problems, and games freezing.

The following is a list of troubleshoots for PS4 users experiencing issues:

Random Console Shutdown

Users who are experiencing random shutdowns or even random reboots, should consider that overheating may be the cause of their problem. When something like this occurs, the user will see a red or blue light, instead of the usual white light on the console.

The user's first measure should be to check the ventilation of the unit and ensure that it is not blocked or backed up with dust or any foreign substances. After that, users should make sure that the HDMI cable is properly connected and not loose whatsoever. The final step to take if the previous ones don't seem to do the trick, would be to report the problem to Sony, because the hard disc may be the source of the issue.

PS4 Audio Video Problems

Sony PlayStation 4 users are often plagues with audio and video problems. In this case the first thing to do would be to check if the HDMI cable is properly fitted into the television set. If all seems up to snuff, then check the audio and video settings on the TV set to see if there's any off parameters or options enabled.

If all else fails, attempt to connect the device to another TV, as the source of the problem may be the output device itself.

PS4 Freezing Problem

Initially, the user's first motion would be to check if overheating is the problem and again, check for blockage or dust. If the unit is receiving proper circulation than make sure that the newest software updates are installed on the console, which would promptly fix the issue.
