i was playing GT7 then had reboots, then lock ups when getting into UL, tried an update in safe mode via internet, but said it was corrupted, tried same update via usb, again corrupted, so though ssd, tried that in pc and nothing, tried another ssd, mo getting no display, it powers on and tv detects, but no display, tried safe mode, but after 2nd beep, it just switches itself off. i even tried the original HDD, but same again,
what on earth is going on,lol, theres no bent pins on hdmi, but as its detecting hdmi, sort of rules that out as tired 3 hdmi cables.
anyone as going bald from pulling hair out:cry::cry:

tv shows detected, and even will switch channel, but no display.

Can you not get it to boot at all, not even in safe mode?

Have you tried connecting it via another TV or a computer monitor?

When the PS4 is turned on, does it work as normal but just does not output an image? Or do you get warning beeps and strange behaviour like it resetting itself on a loop or the console lights being a different colour to normal?

Have you tried doing a complete power cycle? Turn the console off, then unplug from the wall and pull the power cable out and any other peripheral cables. Let it sit for ~20 mins or so. You can hold down the power button whilst it is unplugged from the mains to help drain the capacitors. Once it’s sat for a good 20 mins, reconnect the power cord and try turning it on.

If you can get it into safe mode, try checking what resolution it is outputting and also try disabling HDCP.
ive tried literally everything, it turns on but no display, will give 2 beeps to go into safe mode, but then shuts down, ive even let it sit for 2 days unplugged, but still the same, even reset my tv and tried every hdmi port,lol, will not fo into safe mode just sits there with blue light, showing on tv as connected but no display
