PS5 & Xbox HDMI port repair
Console powers on but there is no picture? That is the HDMI port, and we replace it — with a full deep clean included.
Console powers on, fan spins, light comes on — but the telly says no signal. Nine times out of ten that is the HDMI port, not the console. It is the single most common console fault we see, and it is very fixable.
The port sits on the mainboard and takes the strain every time a cable is pulled, tripped over or knocked sideways. Eventually a pin lifts or a solder joint cracks. Replacing it means removing the damaged port, cleaning up the pads and soldering a new one on — proper board-level work rather than a parts swap.
Prices correct as of 7 September 2026. Parts prices move, so we confirm the price with you before we start any work.
The deep clean is included, not an extra. While your console is open on the bench we clean the fan, the heatsink and the vents out properly. Most consoles that come in for an HDMI port go home running quieter and cooler than they arrived. Every repair carries a 1-year warranty.
How to tell it is the HDMI port
- No picture at all, but the console powers on and the fan spins up.
- Picture only at certain angles, or if you hold the cable in place.
- Flickering, snow or a dropping signal that comes and goes.
- Visible damage — you can see bent or pushed-in pins in the port.
- It works on another telly but not yours is usually not the port — try a different cable and input first.
Why not just buy another console?
A PS5 or Series X with a broken HDMI port is otherwise a perfectly good console. For £85 you keep your console, your drive, your saves and your games, rather than spending several hundred on a replacement. It is one of the best-value repairs we do.
Do not let anyone tell you it is not worth fixing
Plenty of shops will not touch board-level soldering and will tell you the console is scrap. That is usually a statement about their bench, not about your console. We do this work regularly.
Common questions
How much is a PS5 HDMI port repair?
£85 for a PlayStation 5, and that includes a full deep clean of the console inside and out. A PlayStation 4 is £55.
How much is an Xbox HDMI port repair?
£85 for an Xbox Series X, £75 for a Series S, and £55 for an Xbox One. All of them include the deep clean.
Will I lose my games or saves?
No. We are replacing a physical port on the mainboard — we do not touch the storage. Your games, saves and account all stay exactly as they are.
How long does it take?
It is board-level soldering, so it is not a while-you-wait job. Drop the console in and we will give you a realistic turnaround — usually a day or two depending on the bench. Bring the console itself; you do not need to bring the cables or controllers.
Is it worth repairing an older console?
We think so. £55 to fix a PS4 or Xbox One that otherwise works perfectly is a lot less than replacing it, and it keeps a working console out of the bin.
Is the repair guaranteed?
Yes, a full 1-year warranty on the port and the work, the same as every other repair we do.
