How Much Does a PS5 HDMI Port Repair Cost?

---

"How much is it going to be?" is the first thing almost everybody asks me, usually before they've even set the console on the counter. Fair question. So here are my prices for the repairs I do most, all in one place.

HDMI port replacement

This is the big one. A cable gets yanked, or the console gets moved while it's still plugged in, and the little pins inside the HDMI port bend or break. The result is no picture, a flickering picture, or "no signal" on a TV that works fine with everything else.

• PS5 and Xbox Series X: $150 plus tax
• PS4, Xbox Series S, Xbox One S and Xbox One X: $100 plus tax

Every HDMI port I work on gets checked under the microscope, so I'm not guessing about what's wrong.

Tune-up for overheating or a loud fan

If your console shuts off in the middle of a game or sounds like a jet engine, it's usually packed with dust. A tune-up is $75, and it's the same price on any console.

Nintendo Switch

• Charging port: $125
• Screen: $125

What can change the price?

The prices above are for the repair itself. Sometimes when I open a console up I find something else going on, like damage on the board or an earlier repair attempt that has to be undone. If that happens, I'll tell you what I found and what it costs before I do any extra work. You won't get a surprise bill.

And if a console isn't worth fixing, I'll tell you that too.

A tip before you come in

Call or text me first at (573) 567-0527 so I know what's coming and can make sure I have the part. Many HDMI port jobs are done the same day when the part's in stock. Just bring the console. You can keep your cables, controllers and games at home.
