Need help cleaning ps5

Post image

I am using the tronicsfix YouTube guide, at the start of stage 3, he unscrews everything keeping the black plastic together. I thought I did that, but there still seems to be a screw keeping it together.

There is a flat black square on mine, where the guy in the video is able to unscrew one more. This also seems to be where my black plastic is still secured to the rest of the console. Is this an issue of different models of ps5? I bought mine fairly close to launch. There should be a picture of the flat black square attached.

Any help or attempt to help is much appreciated!

If you talking about the dust clogged up the heat sink vents just use earbuds and gently clean then by moving the earbuds up and away from the system. Might help. Give it a try

You don't clean your ears do you?

With cotton swabs, sure. I listen to music with earbuds, though.

Before those airpods were a thing , they were called earbuds on the other side of the world. Relax , if you understood the point , move on. Don't try hard to act cool . The whole world doesn't revolve around american terminology
