Why PS5 HDMI Repairs Cost More

HDMI and USB port repairs on a PS5 are some of the most labor-intensive console repairs. Unlike simple part swaps, this job involves:

• 50+ screws just to get to the motherboard.

• Liquid metal cooling compound under the processor that must be handled carefully.

• Special tools like soldering irons, hot air stations, and microscopes.

This is not to say the tools are impossible to buy—but without proper training, one mistake can spill liquid metal onto the board, shorting out the APU or other critical parts.

Why DIY Isn’t Recommended

At Bull City Mobile Repair, we encourage DIY on many devices, but this is one repair we don’t recommend trying on your own. Here’s why:

• Heat guns, paint strippers, and cheap soldering irons often do more harm than good.

• A single slip can cause permanent damage that costs more than the repair itself.

• Customers who try and then bring it in usually end up paying more because extra parts are damaged.

It’s not about discouraging—you can definitely learn repairs—but with PS5 HDMI ports, the risk is simply too high without experience.

Professional Repairs Save Money in the Long Run

When you bring your console to Bull City Mobile Repair, you’re paying for:

• Proper tools & equipment

• Experienced technicians who have repaired hundreds of HDMI ports

• A faster turnaround without the trial-and-error risk

In most cases, it actually costs less to have it done professionally than to try at home, damage something, and need more expensive fixes later.
