While trying to be mindful of spoiling the result - great video as always Phil! And certainly some interesting damage. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us!
damn, the customer did a job on that HDMI port! I have found the HDMI ports to be terrible on the ps5! What i do when i repair them now, is add a dab of 2part epoxy around the port, to the motherboard, Just a very small dab, where the ground / anchor pins are.. Just to give it that little bit of help with strength.. Ive had very good results with this method tbh..
I may try that to be honest, this console is back under warranty so it's going to be interesting to see what's happened to it, and whether it's my fault or not
Wow it keeps amazing me how good you really are at repairs. you make it look simple but it takes so much patience and skill. really nice fix again m8 👍
Cracking video Phil, the word I would use when preparing the heat sink with an abrasive is keying. You keyed the face of the heat sink with an abrasive pad.
Why not solder the jumper wires on the pins with the port unmounted from the board? Wouldn’t that provide a little more flexibility and ease in terms of positioning and access?
I must confess frustration with such ungrateful, negligent customers. Most of us, including myself cannot even get a PS5 over a year after release. To put it into perspective i have my original PS1 which me mum bought me in 1996. Even my 25+ year old Ps1 plays discs, has no damaged ports.
what temperature of the soldering iron do you use when removing the pins from the HDMI port? and what is the temperature of the hot gun, when desoldering the HDMI port?
Have you ever run the traces first then put the port down on top of them, that’s how northridge fix does it, seems easier than doing that way, although he won’t do a repair if there is more than six ripped pads.
I have but I find it can lead to taking longer if you end up with the pads moving and causing a bridge, so I just prefer to run them after the port is down
when i applied liquid metal to my gaming laptop , i applied it like the videos i seen on yt and it dried up (soaked in) fast, and temps quickly went up to 90 + and causes a soft bsod , where as i put more this time like half of what you put as the die is smaller and it seems to be great at about 60-65 degrees in intensive games depending on if they are cpu based or not of course
I have series x luckily still working if i get a problem how i get in contact with you and what are the prices to clean it inside that will be needed in a month or so
Great video again Phil With the lighting maybe some of them octopus arms with lights on the end where you can position where you want to mate just a thought mate 👍🏻

Hello, Cod3r, enjoy your content. I was wondering, do you have any content related to pc maintenance? Stuff like the best tools and methods for cleaning, like is compressed air ok, is it dangerous using a vacuum to suck out dust out etc...? I'd really appreciate any advice.
@@TheCod3r Oh, that's unfortunate. Still, thanks for letting me know and I'm enjoying your content anyway so I'll be sticking around. Plus, if my ps5 breaks I know where to send it now.👍
Hey mate, I'm self taught. While learning (and even now) I watched a lot of videos from people like Andrew Paul, Louis Rossmann and Paul Daniels. TH-cam can be a fantastic resource for learning material :)
Thanks for another great video, a question have you ever ran a PS 5 on an external 12 volt supply? I have one that has a lighting strike damage power supply I can run on bench supply but crashes when playing ps5 games will play you tube and low power stuff all day. PS bench supply is 30-40 amp.
Hey mate. I haven't run one on my bench supply yet but I'd assume it's a load issue you're having. It's best to fix the psu if possible. Generally bench supplies can't put out more than 5 or 10 amps so I'd say if you wanted that route of using an external power source a pc power supply would be more realistic by tapping into the 12v rail
I noticed 3 strange things whilst watching this video. 1. You didn't sing 2. The Multimeter beeped and you didn't say "shut up Multimeter! " 3. when the Multimeter beeped, I said "shut up Multimeter!" 😳
Haha classic! Yeah I figured most people are fed up of hearing me sing now 😂 actually I think I filmed this video before I started saying shut up multimeter to be honest lol
When you have a PCB with lifted pads, but they are still intact - not broken or broken further away but fixable, can the pad be lightly or firmly glued back in place? Like using a small amount of epoxy? Yeah, epoxy is a bit smelly, too! Thanks 🤓
You could use epoxy provided it's non conductive however it probably won't hold up to iron temps. Gluing any pads is kinda not worth it as it'll likely come loose again with a small amount of heat
first thing i did when i got my ps5 was change the solder on all the ports just to strengthen them also done the same for my friends and families consoles those ports are just so weak hopefully sony changes it in a future revision because there is no excuse for it
@@marcianzero_yt warranty doesn't work like that anymore hasn't for a long time you can do the repair and as long as it causes no damage sony has to honor the warranty unless they can prove that the repair is the cause of the fault you are trying to claim warranty on

Absolutely mate, I always have a little code to live by 1) Functionality 2) Longevity 3) Optional Visibility I don't care too much about what it looks like, because the user isn't going to see it. The most important thing is having a working device that will last
Phil have you tried carbonot by thermal grizzly. It claims pretty similar thermal conductivity to liquid metal, without the mess. Just wondered if any one tried on a ps5?

Generally I consider this as a full HDMI circuit rebuild, so I charge £120 on the PS5 and Xbox Series X. The PS4 and Xbox One consoles I charge £90 but the reason for the difference is that they're more time consuming to get into :)
Consoles get lot sensetive breaking down. Back earlier days of gaming such NES,SNES , sega mega drive PS2 and 2 and original Xbox if drop them still be working never had any of those break down in my past 30 years of gaming. Time to PS3 , xbox360 came out that when problem s started consoles breaking down even to to newer consoles such ps5 today. Nothing made to last these days unlike the past. Am kinda put off buying ps5

Is hdmi ports still weak on the new version
And it's brought back from the dead - Well done Phil.
Thanks mate, glad I could get this one going again
would probably take me 5 hours to run those trace wires since i've only ever ran a single trace wire so far :D
haha you get used to them. This video in total before editing was just a little under 2 hours, so I'd say it took me an hour to run the jumper wires
What a great job. Well done, very interesting and highly informative!
Excellent work mate , you are the master. Greetings

Good stuff mate, yeah they do harbour some pretty good jumper wire 😛
Nice job m8 awesome repair 👍👍👍
Great job mate
I don’t understand how people damage their hdmi ports. Don’t try to jam the console close to a wall and be careful plugging it in and out.

It’s about time you got some fibre pens to clean the traces
Honestly I don't like using them, they leave fibers all over the board which cab be a nuisance to clean

hmmm.. looks like that solder mask is not quite cured to me 😁
first thing i did when i got my ps5 was change the solder on all the ports just to strengthen them also done the same for my friends and families consoles those ports are just so weak hopefully sony changes it in a future revision because there is no excuse for it
Yeah they are inherently weak, but this is probably the worst ps5 I've seen to be honest
So you voided warranty to prevent some possible damage?
@@marcianzero_yt warranty doesn't work like that anymore hasn't for a long time you can do the repair and as long as it causes no damage sony has to honor the warranty unless they can prove that the repair is the cause of the fault you are trying to claim warranty on
Change the solder with leaded solder? That makes it weaker. The factory soldering is always better than afterwork leadfree repair.
@@John-oo9xu where did i say i used leaded solder i use a higher quality solder than Sony to be more specific nihon sn100c i have never had one of my ports fail or come off the board unless a customer has tried to force something in or bent them i see PS5 consoles all the time that have come off the pads or bent those ports are a weak point and any technician who works on them daily knows that the factory soldering and those ports are not fit for purpose

Yes can use that, doesnt make a real difference in temp with the liquid metal. You have to renew it in a couple of years tho

Just curious , how are these people damaging the inside of these consoles???? Because they would have to open it up to personally damaged it ???
This one I think was drop damage, but generally there's a lot of inexperienced technicians working on them
It's when it's got a cable plugged into it people trip over the cable and pull the connector.
