[@trypwire]

The first Ps5 I owned, I had for two weeks and it had to be sent back to Sony due to a HDMI problem. The screen had some mad flickers going on where it would change the entire pictures colours and have lines going down the screen. That was in early 2021. Id only left my ps5 on for 10/15 minutes whilst I nipped to the shop, and when I returned it was all messed up, even blamed it on one of the kids until our lass assured me no one touched it. Long story short, the HDMI seems to be quite an issue with the PS5, besides that I absolutely love the thing! Only took 10 days to send and receive my console too, during covid peak lockdowns, was absolutely astonished how quick they resolved it.

[@karambiatos]

@@NUCLEARARMAMENT the laser diode burning out started happening after years of using it, and the fix wasn't all that expensive.

Also new playstations all have issues with analog sticks, i bought 2 PS4 controllers and both of them have a jitter right stick, this is unheard of on the PS1 and 2 controllers

[@CharlesRidleyP7]

Another tip I could give is to use an HDMI cable that is a bit longer than necessary. When I did my first uses of PS5, the screen sometimes flickered, but I attributed it to the fact that the factory cable is very short and in the way that I have things arranged, the cable was stretched. The solution was to use a longer cable, and while that fixed the issue, I'm concerned that I may have damaged the HDMI port by having the factory cable stretched

Only use a longer hdmi 2.1 if you really need to, and even then you have to make sure that the cable actually can reliably keep up with a 4k 120hz signal, because the longer your cable, the further that signal has to travel. There's a pretty useful video on Linus tech tips about hdmi 2.1 cables, and they test a bunch of different brands, and some of the cables they test, don't even meet minimum specifications required to run a 2.1 signal.

Everyone this has happened to me and when I connect any cable it wouldn't work at all. I got worried naturally and thought I had to use my warranty but really if it doesn't work by connecting a different hdmi cable or a different display, or even when safe mode doesn't appear. Don't worry. What tends to happen is that the hdmi port itself is dirty and jamming the systems connection. The fix is to use achohol to clean the inside and blow any dust or debris. In my case the back of the ps5 is hot so the gel that holds the hdmi receptor in place kinda gooed down and made little gel balls in my port.

I would use a vacuum rather than compressed air which will just blow the dust into the system rather than extract it. I recommend removing your face plates from the console and cleaning out the dust at least twice a year just be very gentle with your HDMI port if you have an early model PS5.

Thank you so much ! The last method worked for my system phew no need to worry about sending it to Sony now

[@Puggy42069]

UPDATE: YOU CANT SEND YOUR PS5 IN FOR REPAIR EVEN IF YOU WANT! Playstation is not approving any warranty requests at all right now and any attempts to RMA it will result in no email being sent to you.

[@SenorNavel]

If it happens I'll just take it back to the store where i bought it. They must accept it if it's faulty.

[@Puggy42069]

@@SenorNavel That’s if you’re in the refund period.

[@SenorNavel]

@@Puggy42069 Consumer Law in my country over-rules Sony's warranty. We can get a 2 year warranty at no cost, maybe 3, if the ps5 breaks due to a fault not caused by the user.

The reason the hdmi port goes bad is because all the heat is right at the hdmi port my cords get hot as hell back there. Not a smart move

[@J-cs4in]

The fact I only got a ps5 2 days ago I’m already aware of some things to worry about already.

[@S-420]

Blow a fan at the video input on the PS5 so it doesn't overheat the HDMI cable

[@lilporra76]

I have a different issue mine cuts off while playing PS5 games

[@nightfalls5462]

a while ago, my PS5 wouldn't give me any screen, i changed the hdmi cable, and it worked again, the hdmi cable that i used before that came with the box, seems to be broken then

[@inaunrath5187]

Bro you saved me, the video output was exactly my problem. And I thought it‘s broken. Kisses from germany ❤

My ps5 arrives in a month, thaks for this tips and videos 👍

[@cryptonize2105]

Wow I almost cried. Literally found this video and I went to check if my hdmi was all the way in and it wasn’t 😭

[@HaydensShow]

Thank you so much I moved the HDMI and then straight away came on

[@teeclips9650]

I would say try to wiggle your hdmi port with the hdmi cord in it it might be bent from being rapped up in a bag with the hdmi still plugged into the ps5

[@giovannirivera9233]

Anyone else laughed at his last name i cant get passed it lol

[@MaisieSqueak]

I've bought a tiny extension cable and I keep that in permanently to reduce socket wear.

[@shortRAGE]

Never had any problems with HDMI port , my discdrives always are done after 6-12 month

[@NM2k24]

may be we can set up remote play before hdmi problem happens. I hope that can help us for a certain amount of time. ❤

[@ShaneSparkyYYZ]

I was having this issue and it was due to my AVR (home theatre), so I hooked it directly to my TV and haven’t had the issue since. My AVR had an update recently, so may be why, waiting until the next update 🤞🏼 For those wondering, I have a Denon AVR S750-H

[@ExoticOnTheBeat]

I just had this issue. Updated the software on my smart tv and it worked again. Just letting yall know, another thing to check before sending it in and waiting months.

[@zaselimgamingvideos]

How the hell does that happen? Even my 13 year old ps3's hdmi still works.

[@zextruh9862]

Cheap hardware

[@Sejuani89]

The launch model is prone to this because the port is not sturdy! Good thing I got the 2001 model!

[@aussieknuckles]

That's why I use a Comsol 4K60 splitter, so I can Switch between my monitor & TV or just have them both on duplicating the same screen. Saves wearing out the HDMI port.

[@daniellovegreen4288]

As always I love your videos man. Especially the very end of your videos lol.

[@karnliberated8891]

Might wanna mention the HDMI handshake between the console and the TV can also make it appear this is the case. My cousin just had this issue and after unplugging both tv and ps5 he was able to get the output to show again. Just wanted to make people aware just because you dont see anything for Safe Mode doesn't mean its 100% broken, might be the HDMI handshake.

[@JJ-zo7jv]

This worked for me. Thank you so much.

[@Darkhorse12022]

I feel you missed a lot of information on what the console will be doing. What should you expect from the lights? How long will it take to hear beeps? How long after holding the button will it shut back off?

[@ThaHulkster]

It took over 2 years for me to get a PS5 at retail and within 5 days of me playing it, this happens. Why does everything about gaming suck now? None of this is worth the hassle anymore.

[@plasterchief9582]

I don't know why but PlayStation consoles have poorly built HDMI ports, like my PS4 pro's HDMI is loose and I know alot of people who had them break

[@neah9060]

Everytime youtube show me a new video from you, my brain goes: "Okay! How am I gonna stress myself today?"

[@sjoerdhenderickx]

Ordered a 40bucks belkin cable 2.1 that I also use for my apple tv 4k that has a very steady cable and small plug which keeps it in place for me. Now I can fully use EArc again and let my ps5 sound rund trough my homepods via my apple tv. And I also have no problem using VRR at the same time. This counts for both my monitor and my Sony Bravia TV so another high end but pricy 2.1 cable was the fix for me

[@spiderwill2238]

I need help I have gotten 4 controllers over the past half a year I use a controller for about 2 months and then my controller will just stop working I’ll restart it and do everything it will reconnect and then my headset will work but my mic won’t and my controller only stays connected when it’s plugged in

[@khazms]

I hope one day, they'll go wireless TV/Console with the input/output and do away with the need of HDMI cables.

[@JudgeFudge57]

When that happened to my first PS4 it was because the motherboard was burnt. I played too much RDR2.
