Expert Repairs

Common PlayStation 5 Problems We Fix

From simple cleaning to complex board-level repairs, we handle every PS5 issue with expertise and care.

Common
HDMI Port Damage
No signal, flickering screen, or loose HDMI connection? The PS5 uses smaller, more delicate HDMI ports than previous consoles, making them prone to damage from cable yanking or accidental impacts. Our micro-soldering experts can replace damaged ports with precision.

Typical cost:

R750 - R1 575

incl. VAT | 6-month warranty

Common
Overheating & Loud Fan
PS5 running hot or sounding like a jet engine? Unlike other consoles, the PS5 uses liquid metal thermal compound from the factory. Over time, this can shift or degrade. We safely clean your console and reapply thermal compound to restore quiet, cool operation.

Typical cost:

R799 - R1 395

incl. VAT | 6-month warranty

Disc Drive Problems
Not reading discs, making grinding noises, or randomly ejecting? Disc drive issues on the PS5 can range from simple cleaning to laser lens replacement or mechanical repairs. We diagnose the exact cause and repair it properly.

Typical cost:

R1 035 - R2 420

incl. VAT | 6-month warranty

Get a Quote
Rest Mode Crashes
Console won't wake from rest mode, crashes when entering rest, or corrupts data? The PS5 rest mode bug is a known issue that can be software or hardware-related. We diagnose whether it's a firmware issue or underlying hardware problem and fix it.

Typical cost:

R799 - R2 530

incl. VAT | 6-month warranty

Get a Quote
Common
White Light of Death (WLOD)
Console shows a white light but no video output? WLOD is often caused by APU issues, a faulty HDMI encoder chip, or motherboard problems. This requires advanced diagnosis and board-level repair skills that our technicians specialise in.

Typical cost:

R750 - R2 530

incl. VAT | 6-month warranty

Get a Quote
Power Supply Failure
Not turning on, random shutdowns, or clicking sounds? Power issues can stem from the PSU itself, motherboard components, or power surge damage. We diagnose the root cause rather than just replacing parts unnecessarily.

Typical cost:

R1 580 - R1 905

incl. VAT | 6-month warranty

Specialist Knowledge

Why Your PS5 Needs a Specialist Repair Centre

The PlayStation 5 is Sony's most advanced console yet, and it requires specialist knowledge to repair properly. Unlike the PS4, the PS5 uses liquid metal thermal compound from the factory - a conductive material that can permanently damage your console if mishandled.

PS5 consoles also feature smaller, more delicate HDMI ports that require precision micro-soldering to replace. The complex APU architecture means that issues like the White Light of Death require advanced diagnostic equipment and board-level repair skills.

Our technicians have repaired thousands of PS5 consoles since launch. We have the specialised tools, quality parts, and expertise to fix your PlayStation 5 properly - not just patch it temporarily. That's why we back every repair with our 6-month money-back warranty.
