- How do you know if you need to have your XBOX SERIES X HDMI port replaced? When you plug in your XBOX SERIES X and power it on, the pulsing white light , but nothing is showing on your TV screen. It is one of the most common repairs for XBOX SERIES X. The HDMI port at the back of your console is, unfortunately, a weak point for your console. It usually gets damaged by forcing the HDMI cable in, knocking your console over, or by pure wear damage over time.

Should have two hdmi ports to begin with
I 100% Agree or at least make it where I don’t have to take apart a rocket ship to get to the hdmi
Very true
Brilliant design, A for effort for Xbox for seriously making you need to take apart the whole Xbox just to get to the hdmi port
poor design , xbox one-s turned round HDMI replacement in 40 min's 👌
@@leso204 takes longer with series x it’s soooooo wank
@leso204 one s is inferior
Series X is inferior PS5
Am an Xbox series X user but PlayStation is always far better
Alot more work than i expected.
Thank you so much for your video. Luckily I do this kinda stuff for work. Looks pretty easy. What kind of material did you use for putting the hdmi port back on?? Nvm found in previous comments. Thank you again.
thanks a lot for the detailed video. I just finished a job after watching your video.
I'm glad to hear that our video helped you to fix your xbox .
This worked perfect for disassembly. Pending parts for reassembly.
That looks so complicated. Guess I’m paying the £100 repair fee lol
so £400 more you can get a brand new one thats not been played with
@@trigerhappy95xbs
@@trigerhappy95xdont got money like that
My retimer chip has gone. No sound and only low res. Thought it was the hdmi but its also a damaged ic chip. Any idea if the part is available?
Oh nah bro I thought this was gone be a ez tutorial i wasn’t expecting bro to take the whole thing down to the last cell im just gonna buy the repair fee☠️
On g, I went thru the 5 stages of grief watching this vid 😭
literally 😵💫
He is so good and it takes practice 👍🏻👍🏻
WHAT TEMPERATURE AND AIR SPEED DO YOU USE?
Why did you not use solder wic for cleaning old pads
And wHy did you not check each pin after the job
Would really suck to have to take apart again 😅
Ok so I was looking at a used series x and it’s like 250 but it hdmi port is broke should I get it and have it repaired or just save up and buy a new one
Can you tell me what temp you have your heat gun at to remove the hdmi port? And what size nozzle you have on your heat gun?
How much do you charge to do that ?
You fr gotta take the whole thing apart just to change that lil piece that’s crazy man
It's connected to the apu so of course it's going to be really deep
Normally I would try but after watching this I’m not gonna even attempt it
STG I ain’t wanna wait 2 weeks but I ain’t bouta destroy my iish either 😭😭😭
It’s crazy cause I freaking did it myself lmao no cap. It wasn’t hard at all
U fr fr did it?!!! Ultra hdmi cord works with sound and everything?!!!!??
@@damvernon2605 Yes bro I was scared af at first but I legit did it. Playing my shit right now no cap lol
I took pics and everything and posted it in a Xbox group on Facebook lol I was proud af
I’ve been sitting here with a heat gun for a decent amount of time and it still isn’t loose. Any suggestions?
I noticed you didn't show what thermal paste you used before buttoning up the xbox heat sink, i know you didnt just reuse the existing paste. Did you use Artic silver or another brand? i think you should include that step, it may seem like common sense but to a noob its going to get missed. Great job on the soldering! those small pins are a pita!
We use ARCTIC MX-4 for XBOXs
He doesn’t care that Yk what you are talking about just ask the question
Are those regular torx or are they the ones like on Macs with that stupid pin in the middle?
Is that a torque screw driver or just powered?
Ok I was hoping to watch this and have confidence to do it myself😂 how much does a repair like this normally cost
100-200
What electric driver you got?
I’ve been heating up the hdmi port for 15 minutes does that mean not enough heat
Hey my port stopped working but it only bent a little. Do I need to take it apart and order a new port, or can I just do something else?
Ring microsoft warranty
@@niallmcnally6886 it'll cost $299 though
What kind of gel Are you using and what is that heat pen type thing you are using
Idk the gel but that’s a soldering iron
The gel is called flux. It helps the solder to flow.
Gentleman I’m going to attempt the fix
How’d it end up going??
Where did you get the part? Do you think it’s the same one as the series s.
You can get the hdmi port of Ebay or ali express.
I think the series s is different.
Got mines from Amazon
What did you use to put the hdmi port back on was it like electrical grade glue?
It's soldering flux
www.amazon.co.uk/MG-Chemicals-Pneumatic-Dispenser-Dispensing/dp/B00425FUW2?crid=2RPQ5UM8W2BXM&keywords=flux+soldering+paste+mechanic&qid=1685646302&sprefix=flux+soldering+paste+mechanic,aps,98&sr=8-38&linkCode=sl1&tag=xfixtech-21&linkId=20560e0794729a1785b59aebd0f64a50&language=en_GB&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
Any clue on what they gel is or where to get it? My hdmi just broke as well and in the process of getting it fixed. Thanks in advance
It called Flux, and you can get if from Ebay or Aliexpress
its called flux
How can someone break the hemi port in first place ? Are yall blind when plugging it reverse or Turing unnecessary force coz it’s not plugging it ?
@@sudattsdeadchannel3495 mostly by knocking the console over whilst the HDMI is still plugged in
Seems daft, but seen a few now
@@sudattsdeadchannel3495 ours came broken...for some it is just a quality control issue
which electric screw driver is this
This Video too much helpful
Ok, OK! You win! I’ll just pay someone to fix it
I know this is a little unrelated but, I brought my Xbox series x a few months ago, got it second hand and was told the store had only replaced the HDMI port, when I eventually got a series X game the Xbox shut off a few moments after opening it saying it had overheated, I’m fairly certain it didn’t overheat because Apex legends for series S/X would shut the console off before it even got into the actual game, does anyone have any suggestions or ideas ?
It needs a new thermal paste. Probably they forgot to apply the new thermal paste when they fixed it.
200 bux in Florida. I went today
with 400$ price of console
@@user-wm1wp1nl7i yeah, 175-200 are the numbers I got from 6 local places. I watched him fix it and it's a pain in the ass to get to.
How much should this cost to get repaired cex charge £100 I don’t know if that is far to expensive or, just wondering
We charge less than CEX. For more info DM us on our Facebook page
Bru I got a xbox series x I am only 15 how am I going to fix it it turns on but I plug the hdmi cord in and it says no signal on the TV it looks like the hdmi port is broken
Your not
Take to shop
Are you doing this by yourself or do you have a big company and you guys are looking for other people to advertise your company and maybe do repairs. Idk this is a long shoot because I’m looking for a base or a group to market and repair wit.
They are a big company
Do u take shippings ?
Great reapir I am in the middle of repairing a previous hdmi repair attempt and nootices that the resistor R178 is missing beside the hdmi retimer chip, is there a chance you could check the value of the resistor for me? Thank you
It that a heat gun your using to loosen the bad hdmi port
150 Canadian is it to expensive to fix ?
I want to but i dont even have the equipment to do so
I bought an hdmi port thinking itd be relatively simple to replace . Now im thinking its time to send her in 😢
It would be easier to build a car from scratch! This is crazy just for a hdmi port
I’ve had my Xbox for less than 2 hours, it fell on its side and this happens. Why not make 2 ports, there’s enough room😭
It’s so you buy another series x and the price of my Microsoft shares go up.
At this point I feel the quality of Xbox has gone down this never used to happen
No this does happen to other xboxes too. In fact it's one of the most common repairs. The hdmi ports have always been the weak point.
My sound bar fell on my HDMI cable attached to my Series X today. Ripped the cable out and damaged the port. I am furious. Looking to see if this is something worth doing myself or just have a business fix it.
I suggest you pass it to a reliable business to fix it for you. If you are from UK we accept Mail-in repairs

mine did tod
I gave up fixing my Xbox after the 5th screw....who can do this for me?
That was very helpfull. Thanks a lot.
Yes, you pay for the experience they bring. I don’t mind paying lots especially when they are Great at their jobs.
Did it make you reset your console when you did this ?
No

Good video, just needs better close up shots.
No way this is coming off with a rework heat gun
Mines literally broken the same place still functional but it has its bad days when I can't find the right spot..
That’s literally happening to me now how do I find the right spot
It’s gonna go out soon I struggled with mine jus recently went out waiting on my new hdmi port to fix myself this video definitely helps
Ive just done this..dont be fooled by how easy the port is to get off in the vid .theres glue under the port and also the port is soldered underneath..its a pain in the ass to get off. I had the hot air on it for ages and it wasnt moving .I ended up having to heat the port from above and gently prize it off at the back using the two little metal lugs for leverage and crack the glue joint and only then did it begin to move ..keep the heat on the hdmi pins from above while prying the port off to keep the solder there melted so when the port comes pff you dont pull the traces off the board . Also after you get the port off, the solder is very difficult to remove from the 4 holes that hold the port on. You have to use good wick and plenty of flux and hot air at the same time as wicking /using a solder sucker to clear the holes out. It took me longer to get the port off and clear the holes out properly than it did to take the console to bits and put it back together. All worked perfect after but I wont be doing another one anytime soon 😂
Your explanation was very clear and easy to understand. Well done!
@@xFixRepairsUK thanks. Thankyou for your video, it helped alot when it came to dismantling and putting it back together
I'm so sick of my xbox x I've had 3 replaced so far I'm over it
My xbox series x HDMI port is chipped😢
I'm going through it right now with the HDMI port
Good luck with your repair.
I had the courage to fix it myself. But after seeing the breakdown, I changed my mind 😅
After port was replaced in auto-detect mode max resolution is 480p. What caused that? Not OEM port?
Make sure all the pins are soldered to board and non of them is loos.
@@xFixRepairsUK if 1080p works when selecting HDMI, but auto detect doesnt detect TV can it be caused by retimer IC? Does such thing is on series X?
@@Glofex
1- make sure you are using the high quality hdmi cable.
2- Do software reset on xbox and tv it might help.
3- It could be from your tv as well if it's not compatible.
4- check hdmi filters
5- change retimer ic if you still have the issue
@@xFixRepairsUK step 5 to go... :(
What is the liquid stuff you used to remove the hdmi port?
In my country nobody really does this so I am trying on my own
It's soldering Flux. You can find the link for it in the description
Good luck trying to do the same thing ,might as well build a Xbox from scrap
I'm currently replacing the hdmi port on my husband's xbox, smdh... what did i get myself into!? But i got it working!
Well done 👌
installed new hdmi all good still no video the xbox blows me!
screws - screws - screws' disasembley longer than port replacement nitemare ................
And PS I’m in the United States in California if you’re in the UK that’s a good spread to get your continent
Does it work in 4K still??
Yes it still works in 4K.
Im pissed I cant do this
If you have to do all of this you might as well just take it to the shop or get a new one this is ridiculous.. PlayStation here I slide
Just took mine apart. Microsoft is absolutely wrong for this. This hdmi port is absolute junk.
Watching this video made me even more mad bc ik I’ll fuck it up more trying to fix it myself😂 I don’t even understand how mine broke so easily anyway. Ima take the L and pay that 200😂
No mames just for one port
by me that the second time
B4 I finish vid best screwdriver 🤣💪🏾
Wow I really thought i would be able to do this but sadly ino i cant.
How much u think is a good price for labor if i go to a store to get this done so they dont rape me?
I will buy part myself
Never buy the part yourself … they won’t use it… can’t warranty
@@hellboy20101992 ok tnx
Wow so why is it so expensive fir the Xbox 1s when itssss that easy
It's not easy! I've tried to do it before and it's really hard even on the xbox one's. Most people use microscopes for it as they're so small.
Okay should take me 10 min to repair. 3 days later 😆😆
I spent 80 to fix broken hdmi port and a cleanup i went to a asian spot in Manhattan they tried to charger me 260 with cleanup what scumbags thats crazy
I’ll just by a new one
Exact Fing hapend to me
Fuck I can’t do any of this I guess I’m going to Best Buy tomorrow 😭
Man I sitting here thinking the same but I believe we can do it jus gotta be patient an have the proper equipment
@@stezoanderson7857 So tempted to do it myself but I don't have the tools lol. It's like which would be more expensive - buying the tools to fix it yourself or just getting it fixed XD
don’t do this! My xbox doesn’t turn on now 😃
10:16
*cries in $299
No thermal paste? 😂
Ummmm not easy lol!
about to go buy a ps5 I dont know what to do I have no skill when it comes to fixing it xbox has lost me big time Im sure if I send it to them they will be like nope sorry voided warrety stfu xbox and make a sturdy port that doesnt cost a doller to make
Just throw the whole Xbox away
😁
WOW.. Can't beleive you just bodged a hole in the sticker! Not good!
Hahaa, you are funny 😄. If you watch the video again, you can see label has been ripped already by other shop. But easy and clean way is just put the little hole on the sticker instead of remove it and put it back and as you know it will never stick back properly one you have removed the sticker.
Other than removing the sticker there's no other way to get it off. It'll look bad either way - if anything it'll look better with the small hole rather than the massive sticker gone.
@@izakomandaz2895 No, The sticker comes off perfectly and easily with some heat! I've done it several times to customers Series X's.
@@xFixRepairsUK Wasn't being funny at all. Sticks back perfectly fine for me.
@@UberMicroRepairs well it doesn't for me
Bro the 600$ wasted on this peice of shit i could have gotten a pc way better than this im mad bro its like he hdmi input breaks every month
This pissed me off. It was done way too fast. U didn't have to speed it up.
That’s some bullshit I’m not doing this lol
I’ve been sitting here with a heat gun for a decent amount of time and it still isn’t loose. Any suggestions?
