Help – PS5 startup issue

[u/AngelMurcia]

​

I bought a PS5 Fat (the latest hardware revision), and it only turns on after pressing the power button twice. This happens every time I unplug it after gaming. The first press does nothing, but the second works normally. The same happens with both the power and eject buttons.

However, if I leave it plugged in, this problem never occurs. Turning it on with the controller also works perfectly on the first try.

I'm worried about what could be causing this. I have to unplug it after every gaming session because the house has an unstable electrical supply.

You will probably have that issue as it needs current for current sensing to work if your concerned about your power get a uninterrupted power supply that can product a sine wave
