hi guys welcome back and today i'm going to be teaching you how to turn on your playstation if it has a broken power button. as you can see when i push the button nothing happens. for this all you're going to need is a disc, it doesn't have to be a playstation disc, it can be any disc. put it in there, you'll feel it stop about here, then push it a little bit more and you should see the blue light come on. that means it's working. as you're going to see it's going to show up and that's how you do it. okay guys so if this first trick isn't working and this isn't turning it on, what you're gonna need to do is unplug the playstation for 10 seconds. okay so you just plug it back in and you basically just do exactly what i did before, and just like that it should turn on. you're good to go.
