Frequently asked questions
Why does my PS5 turn on but show no picture?
A black screen with the system still powered is the classic sign of a damaged HDMI port; we inspect the connector and surrounding board to confirm before replacing it.
Can you replace the PS5 HDMI port without a new console?
Yes — the connector is a board-level part we desolder and swap, so you keep your console, drive, and saved games.
Do you fix bent pins inside the port?
Bent pins usually mean the connector body is compromised, so the reliable fix is a full HDMI port replacement rather than straightening pins.
