PlayStation 5

PlayStation 5, Slim and Pro repair

Console that won't turn on, that switches itself off, that blows like a hairdryer or no longer takes discs: every PS5 fault has its repair, at component level, with the price announced before we open it.

PS5 faults we repair

  • No picture: HDMI port or HDMI chip (see the dedicated page).
  • Won't turn on, blinks then switches off: power supply, or logic board.
  • Switches off mid-game, loud fan: overheating. We clean, replace the thermal pads on the memory and renew the liquid metal on the processor.
  • Drive that won't take or spits out the disc: mechanism, laser unit or complete drive.
  • Torn USB port, controller that no longer charges from it.
  • Corrupted system, update loop: reinstall, keeping your games when possible.

Liquid metal: the quiet PS5 fault

Sony uses liquid metal between the processor and the heatsink. Over the years, or if the console has been stored upright and moved often, it migrates: the console gets hot, slows down, then cuts out. The repair means fully opening the PS5, cleaning, applying fresh liquid metal and remaking the seals. It is included in the “overheating” repair.

How it works

By appointment in Miélan, or by Colissimo from anywhere in France. Diagnosis 49 €, deducted from the repair; firm price before we start; if we can't repair it, you pay nothing. Every console is tested in-game, with the controller, before it goes back to you.

Frequently asked questions

Should I bring the controller and cables?
Yes, if possible: the controller lets us test the console in-game, and the power cable removes any doubt about its origin. The HDMI cable is not essential.
My PS5 is still under Sony warranty?
Opening by an independent repairer voids the remaining manufacturer warranty. If it is under two years old and the fault isn't due to a knock or liquid, use the legal warranty first.
Do you repair PS4s too?
Yes: PS4, Slim and Pro, same faults, slightly lower prices. See the prices page.
