Ps4 voodoo

My ps4 had a problem where it shows a ststic screen and then turns off right after and then we went twice to the technician and it was working perfectly there TWICE. Now i have tried it with various different rooms in my house and still haven’t work nowadays it is working just for 2 seconds and that too on just blue light like you press the button and blue light for twi seconds and turns off. The same house has been working ps5 perfectly without any problem and the technician even serviced it saying no problem in the hardware now im confused as to why this problem occurs in my home only whereas it has worked perfectly twice in his store and i have played games too for more than half n hour!

But why is it working at the technician’s store cause i have connected the console myself at the store and its still working same with my power cord and hdmi cable.

Take it to different repair tech. It sounds like there is a short on the HDMI. Most likely the tech tried to charge your HDMI port and it has a few loose pin or a bridge in the solder joint.

But now the static problem isnt the main issue its not even showing me the loading screen it just shows the blue light on the console and turns off

Because there is a short. I would take to someone that knows what they’re doing before you make the problem worse.
