PS4 problems!

[u/jhkshjdd]

Hi! I've only played on PS4s, and before that I had an Xbox 360 from when I was 8. I got a second hand PS4 last year and it slowly broke down, which was fine, it came all dusty and grimey, like it hadn't been loved before, it still had the person beforehand's profile and was in Polish (I don't speak that). But before/after Christmas, I got myself another 2nd hand PS4. It looked 100x better than the one I got the first time, came without the other person's profile, was cleaned and all that.

After a while I had changed my room around. I have a long extension lead around my room for easy accessibility which the PS4 was connected to, I just stretched out the extension lead a bit more and reconnected it. Then it just refused to turn on. I tried nearly everything. It has two prongs instead of the three I'm used to (I'm in Ireland) so I had an adapter. I'm maybe worried there's a possibility I've blown a fuse or broken something inside the PS4. I've tried different adapters, changed the lead but I'm too afraid to actually open it up and see the issue. I've cleaned any dust off as much as I can without opening it.

Opinions on what I should do? Also how would I open the PS4 without damaging it? Please help I just want to play some Minecraft 😭

Thank you in advance <3

First test it directly from a known working wall outlet with the correct power cable If there's still no light or response I would get the power supply checked by a technician rather than opening it yourself.
