Motherboard and daughterboard swap

Hello!


Well i bought an broken PS4 on ebay. The seller told me that it cant get updated.

I tryed to update it manually and i tryed to install the whole system new.

When i did that there always came an error (ce-35888-2) so i searched around and found out that the seller maybe swaped the disc drive and threw away the original daughterboard.

I saw many daughterboards on ebay for like 10$ so my question is can i buy one of those whos matching and how can i see if they match, is there a nummber to check or something? Im new to repairing electrical stuff and i hope you can help me.


Thanks :)

The Blu-ray drive daughter board is paired with the console. Only the one that came with the console will work. Any other blu-ray drive daughterboards will not work with the console unless re-paired by Sony which I doubt they’d do.
