If your PS5 suddenly stopped showing picture and now stares back at you with the same silent judgment your dog gives when you drop food on the floor, you’re probably dealing with the famous (or infamous) PS5 HDMI port problem. Don’t worry — you’re not alone, and your console isn’t gone forever. At Gadget Medic Express in Longview and Henderson, TX, we fix this issue every single day, and we do it fast.
In this article, we’ll talk about how much it is to fix a PS5 HDMI port, what actually causes this annoying problem, why repairing beats replacing, and why our family-owned repair shop is your console’s new best friend.
⭐ So… How Much Is It to Fix a PS5 HDMI Port?
Here’s the part you Googled for:
PS5 HDMI port repair at Gadget Medic Express typically ranges around $150 depending on the damage and parts availability.
If your port is barely hanging on for dear life, that’s one thing.
If it looks like it went five rounds with a toddler swinging the controller like Thor’s hammer… well, that’s another.
Either way, our prices stay fair, honest, and way cheaper than buying a brand-new console. Plus, you get:
- A lifetime warranty
- A family-owned, locally operated team who actually cares
- Fast turnaround (usually 1–2 days)
- Top-rated service in East Texas
We don’t just fix HDMI ports — we fix emotional damage caused by broken HDMI ports.
🎮 Why Do PS5 HDMI Ports Break in the First Place?
We’ve seen it all. Truly.
Here are the usual suspects:
1. The “Accidental YANK”
Someone trips over the HDMI cable like it’s a rogue garden hose.
The PS5 does the “I believe I can fly” stunt.
The port does not survive.
2. Loose cable wearing it out
HDMI cables get wiggle-wiggle-wiggled over time. Eventually the inside pins give up.
3. Kids being kids
Controllers get pulled. Consoles fall. Ports snap.
Small humans = big chaos.
4. Dust, dirt, and mystery gunk
We’re not judging, but some of y’all’s consoles could qualify as ancient ruins. A little buildup can cause the port pins to misalign or fail.
Whatever the reason, the fix is the same — a brand-new HDMI port installed by our certified techs under your watchful gamer eyes.
🛠️ What We Do When You Bring in a Broken PS5
At Gadget Medic Express, we don’t just swap ports. We go through a full diagnostic so your PS5 gets VIP treatment.
Here’s how we roll:
Step 1: Full Inspection
We check the HDMI port, retimer chip, pins, traces — all the nerdy stuff that makes the screen light up.
Step 2: Confirm the Port is the Problem
Sometimes the port isn’t the cause. It might be the retimer chip or even a blown video line. Lucky you — we fix those too.
Step 3: Microsoldering Magic
Our techs replace the port under a microscope with precision tools.
HDMI ports have 19 tiny pins, which is 19 opportunities to mess up — but not for us. We’ve done thousands.
Step 4: Testing, testing, and more testing
We test with 4K output, multiple cables, and verify clean video.
Step 5: Your PS5 goes home happier than when it arrived
Plus, you get a lifetime warranty on the repair, because we stand behind our work forever… or at least long enough for the next console generation.
💸 Why Repairing Your PS5 Beats Replacing It
A PS5 costs $500–$550 before tax.
A broken HDMI port repair costs around $150 plus tax.
We’re no math teachers, but we’re pretty sure that’s an easy choice.
Here’s what else you avoid by repairing:
- Losing all your saved games
- Re-downloading your entire library
- Waiting for a new console to be in stock
- Explaining to your kids why gaming is “temporarily unavailable”
- Crying in the Walmart electronics aisle
Repairing saves money, time, and sanity.
