Need help fixing PS5 HDMI port in Türkiye — what tools/materials do I actually need?
Hey everyone,
I’m in Türkiye and trying to DIY repair my PS5 HDMI issue. The console powers on but shows “No Signal,” and I already tested different HDMI cables + displays, so I think the HDMI port itself may be damaged.
I want to learn and try fixing it myself instead of immediately taking it to a repair shop. I’ve been looking at Trendyol / Hepsiburada / local electronics shops but I’m not sure which materials are actually good quality and necessary.
What I currently think I need:
- HDMI replacement port for PS5
- Soldering iron
- Hot air rework station
- Flux
- Solder wick / desolder braid
- Tweezers
- Microscope or magnifier?
- Kapton tape?
- Multimeter?
Questions:
- What’s the minimum setup needed to successfully replace a PS5 HDMI port?
- Any brands/tools you’d recommend that are available in Türkiye?
- Is a cheap hot air station enough or do I need something better?
- How hard is this repair for a beginner?
- Could the issue be HDMI encoder/IC instead of the port itself? How can I tell?
Also if anyone in Türkiye has done this repair before, I’d appreciate recommendations for where to buy decent electronics repair tools/materials locally or online.
Thanks 🙏
