This nameless error code occurs frequently on PlayStation 4 consoles and it appears along with the message “An error has occurred”. This error usually appears when booting your PS4, usually at the beginning, when you try to sign in to your PSN profile or while settings up some of your settings. Follow some of the methods located below in order to fix this error completely.
Solution 1: Verify Your PSN Account
You will need to verify your email address which you used to set up your PS4 if you want to avoid this error code and gain access to certain things you were unable to use before you did this. This problem usually happens to users who have just purchased their console and they rushed to open it up without verifying their PSN account in the first place. Follow the set of steps below in order to fix this.
Note: If plenty of time has passed since you created your PSN account, the link in the email they sent you may have expired and you may need to request an additional one by logging into their website and clicking the Resend email button from the website.
Solution 2: Create Another Account with a Different Email
Since some users simply couldn’t verify their account because of certain issues with the PSN servers, a logical solution would be to simply create another account and use this one instead. If you have just purchased your console, this shouldn’t be a big deal since you won’t be losing any of your progress and it’s almost certain to fix your error code. Still, make sure you verify this new account in time.
Solution 3: Have a Friend Help You
This method was highly successful but it requires another PlayStation 4 console for it to work which means you should contact a friend or someone who possesses the PlayStation 4 console. The method is quite simple and it basically “fixes” your account by logging it into a different console, making it possible for you to use it without issues. The person who you contacted should log in with your account on their console. It’s the best if you are physically present and if you log in the account yourself as it’s the safest way of knowing whether your account has been compromised. After that, you should log in to your account on your own console and check to see if the issue has been fixed. Good luck!
