I can not hook up with BR or Events. As the game connects me with an online player the PS5 beeps and automatically shuts down and I have to restart PS5. Just want to play online games.. it wasn’t a issue 3 days ago.
Clean it up and when you do make sure to clean the ventilator that’s under the disc reader.

@iBonafideScrub__PSN Thanks… where do I take it to clean it up? Recommendations?

You can remove the top and bottom covers and use a small portable vacuum, like a Shark, to vacuum out the dust. I do this at least once a week and haven't had issues. I've had the console for three years.

I did it myself following a youtube video guide, I can’t recommend a place but maybe you can do a quick google search and you’ll probably find somewhere you can take it to.

This is helpful too. I do it once a month to avoid the need of a deep clean.

I unfortunately didn’t stay on top of this and am waiting for the t9 wrench from Amazon to open er up.
It is an overheating issue that could be easily fixed by optimizing the game to play online. But we do need the awesome cutscenes and announcers saying the wrong things and the folks in the crowd juggling hot dogs. -

Why Sony decided to use different sized screws for securing a cooling fan, I will never know, especially because they made the PS3 Superslim so easy to take apart.

Oh dang, good lookin out. I dismantled a lot of ps4s for cleaning and I would’ve overlooked that

@Jacob151167_XBL thank you, just finished and that advice was spot on! Was a bear but it is doable for those that are overheating or console is switching off. It was disgusting in there.
