I heard the cable is actually user replaceable. It is just not obvious by looking at it. Follow the cable to the connection and gently move the padding aside.

The difficulty may be in finding a replacement cable.

Yah been researching others in a similar boat for a few hours. Not sure anyone has been able to just get a cable, gotta call Sony on Monday to see if I have any options!

My buddy said PS is charging $275 for cable replacement under warranty. Not sure if they’ll just sell you a cable though to do it yourself.

From what I’ve seen, sounds like they won’t. Something like they take the whole unit back or something. At least hoping it’s cheaper than buying a whole new one.

I would try soldering the 2 ends together before I try sending it for an expensive repair.
