Error ce-34335-8 after power issue

Got in a PS4 slim with the dreaded 42GG Southbridge. Came in roach infested with no power. Put in a new power supply, no change. Checked literally every component on the board, no shorts. Reflowed the southbridge, managed to get power back, but I'm getting the HDD error mentioned above. Tried with known good drive, same issue. Replaced the 5v regulator on the HDD line, same issue. After letting it sit overnight, went to test again and had no power again. Reheated the SB, got power back. I'm considering replacing the whole HDD connector or the SB, but I'd rather ask you guys first. Thanks in advance!

Did you just "reflow" the sb or did you remove it and re-ball it? I'd remove and re-ball. That way you can check the pads on the board and chip for oxidation, and coat any exposed traces on the board.

I had a dual sense recently where someone blew the power ic but instead of replacing it they misdiagnosed the sie as the culprit and "reflowed" that. But when they did they caused traces to become exposed under the chip, which caused a number of balls to merge just out of sight. Sometimes one gets lucky and "reflow" does the trick, but sometimes not so much.

Roach infested, yum. Modern electronics are so fragile. If any cap, filter, resistor etc goes even 10-20 points out spec the entire device can be rendered nonfunctional. Roaches man....blech, good luck!
