Update: A week since confirming a fix was in the works, the PS4 YouTube error code NP-37602-8 is still causing log-in issues with the app on Sony's console.
It's "taking longer than expected" to fix according to the latest update from Team YouTube's Twitter account, but that was on 30 May.
You might still be waiting for a while on a fix yet.Still, you can use YouTube on PS4 while signed in.
All you have to do is use another device, like your phone or tablet, and hit the 'cast' button in the YouTube app.
This will let you control YouTube on PS4 with your phone while you're signed in, assuming they're on the same Wi-Fi network.
YouTube confirmed this below:Original story: If you've tried to use the YouTube app on PS4 recently, you've probably noticed that you're being signed out, and that signing in again prompts an error code: NP-37602-8.
Searching PlayStation Support when you get the error prompt yields no results, which is annoying, but now the issue is known to Sony and YouTube and they're looking into fixing it.YouTube tweeted out the following, which was retweeted by the Ask PlayStation help account.

Until a proper fix comes, that gives you the ability to watch YouTube on your TV through your account.Which YouTube video did we watch to test this fix out, you ask? Well, it was this funky remix of Le Cassette's Radio, because we never truly got over the synthwave movement.Look out for a proper fix in the coming days.
