The port is replaced at component level under a microscope — not by swapping the whole motherboard. That keeps the repair at a fraction of Sony’s flat-rate price and preserves your saved data.
Hot-air rework station, professional microscope, lead-free flux and ESD-safe tooling. The same kit the OEMs use in their service centres.
Free initial diagnosis. If the board has underlying damage we can’t repair economically, you pay nothing for the work and only cover return postage.
Typical cost for this repair is £70–£110. You get a firm written quote after free initial diagnosis, and no chargeable work starts without your approval. No-fix-no-fee on every repair — you only pay for work that was actually done.
Turnaround is typically 3-7 working days from arrival at the workshop to return dispatch.
The HDMI socket is soldered directly to the motherboard with no mechanical strain relief into the chassis. Any sideways force on the cable — a toddler tripping over it, pulling the console while it’s plugged in — transmits straight to those tiny solder joints. One sideways knock is enough to lift pins and kill the port.
Typical cost is £70–£110 depending on the condition of the board. If the port was ripped clean off and pads are torn, additional trace repair is required and the cost sits at the upper end. A straightforward replacement on an undamaged board is at the lower end.
Most PS5 HDMI repairs return within 3–7 working days of the console arriving at the workshop.

Yes. Every repair carries a 90-day warranty on the specific work performed. If the replacement port fails within 90 days, we replace it at no further labour charge — you only pay return postage both ways.
