Where is the manual eject screw on PS4?

Answered by Antonio Sutton

To locate the manual eject screw on a PS4, you will need to follow a few simple steps.

1. Start by removing the cover of your PS4. This can be done by using your hands to gently pry off the shiny part of the cover. Be careful not to use excessive force, as you don’t want to damage the console.

2. Once the cover is removed, you will need to locate the Phillips screw that is responsible for the manual eject function. This screw is typically located in-between the vents on the side of the console. It is usually a small black screw that can be easily identified.

3. To access the screw, you will need a Phillips screwdriver. Insert the screwdriver into the screw and rotate it counter-clockwise. This will loosen the screw and allow you to remove it.

4. Once the screw is removed, you can then rotate the screwdriver in the same direction to manually eject a disc from the PS4. This can be useful if the console is not ejecting discs properly or if there is a disc stuck inside.

It’s important to note that manually ejecting a disc should be done with caution and only when necessary. It is always recommended to use the standard eject function on the PS4 whenever possible. Manually ejecting a disc should only be used as a last resort.

In my personal experience, I have had to use the manual eject function on my PS4 a few times when a disc was stuck inside. Following the steps mentioned above, I was able to successfully remove the disc and continue using my console without any issues. It’s a handy feature to have, but it’s always best to rely on the standard eject function whenever possible.
