Common console faults we fix

HDMI ports

No picture or a broken socket on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X and Xbox One. If another cable and TV input change nothing, the port is the likely fault.

Warning lights and no power

PS3 yellow light, PS4 blue light, Xbox 360 red ring, and consoles that won't turn on. These usually point to a power supply or motherboard fault.

Stick drift

Characters or cameras that move on their own. DualSense, DualShock, Xbox, Joy-Con and handheld joysticks.

Handheld screens

Cracked, black or lined screens on Switch, Switch Lite, Steam Deck, 3DS, DS, PS Vita and more.

Console repair questions

Why is my PS5 or Xbox loud, hot or shutting down?

Usually dust. It clogs the fan and heatsink, so the console can't shed heat and shuts down to protect itself. Give it clear space on every side. If it still overheats, it needs opening and cleaning.

What should I do before bringing my console in?

If it still turns on, back up saved games to the cloud or a USB drive where your console allows it. Take out any disc, and note any error code or light pattern.
