PS5 - Error Code - CE-108262-9
Symptom - Crashing (powerloss) during gameplay or on game startup (works fine in menus)
Was able to replicate RAM repair I have done previously, here are some more detailed notes.
BWE CODES (for search function)
APU FREEZE
Known Unknown 779
Kernel Panic Shutdown
Known Unknown 866
Damaged RAM or APU Post Boot
APU Not Responding - 43
Console would crash as a game was loaded, both PS4 and PS5 Games
Upon reboot, Error CE108262-9 would be in the error history
I used my thermal camera to look at the RAM, GDDR6 - 7 was sitting about 10°C above the other RAM
I swapped that RAM and the console worked (sent back to customer, still working a week later). I used Amaoe Senticil with solder paste.
I beleive this error is cause by RAM that fails under stress, there may be other ways to diagnose. This is my third console I have been able to with this error code. All have been RAM.
