If you’re like most people, you probably don’t know how to turn on your PlayStation 4 without a controller or power button. Here’s how:

  1. Plug in the power cord to your PlayStation 4.
  2. Turn on your PlayStation 4 by pressing the power button for about 10 seconds.
  3. If you have a controller, plug it in to the port on the back of your PlayStation 4. If you don’t have a controller, plug it into an outlet and turn on your PlayStation 4 using that outlet’s power cord.
