PS-5 HDMI Port Replacement Full Tutorial

[@RJArens]

I used a heat gun on mine solder and all and the hdmi plastic melted but didn't budge.

[@MobileMasterHawthorn]

make sure air flow should be between 30-40 and temprature should be 400c or more and use little extra flux as much as you can, hope it will help you. good luck

[@RJArens]

@MobileMasterHawthorn I figured it had to either be temperature or air flow that I got wrong. I'll use your advice well. Thanks again.

Fighting with this the solder is super hard to heat kind of freaked to hold it on hot air so long wow.

[@MobileMasterHawthorn]

when I did first time I did the same and was thinking my machine is get faulty and then I learn tamprature and air flow is important.

What kind of solvent did you use to take the hdmi port off? I see the heat gun but what is the stuff you put on the port to take it off?

[@AshleyGarcia-sy5zm]

And why do you need copper tubing to take it off?

[@AshleyGarcia-sy5zm]

And why do you need copper tubing to take the solvent off?

[@tayjack6252]

I think just to grip it

[@44.caliberbrainsurgery63]

It's called flux and a desolderin braid

[@combatwombat594]

The "solvent" is flux. It keeps the solder from running everywhere. The "copper tubing" is solder wick. It wicks up solder so you can remove it from places it's not needed, or replace solder that is already there

hello! im getting ready to do this repair for the first time, would the original hdmi still be ok after using the heat gun to remove like that? im attempting to use the same port

[@munchie6346]

Those HDMI's are £5 on Amazon. Are you saying you want to clean it up and put the old one back in ??

[@combatwombat594]

I tried myself, and honestly, it's worth it to just get the new port

[@marsrobotcs]

Cool

[@tonyfromaccounting56]

What’s the sticker that’s over the copper plating you used?

[@MobileMasterHawthorn]

@tonyfromaccounting56 This Yellow Sticky Tape to prevent from over heating the components

[@tonyfromaccounting56]

@ ahhh okay

[@mrBDeye]

Captain Tape

[@Aceleazy]

kapton tape lol not captain 😂

[@Dub-C-30]

if you're in there that deep why not clean out all the dust while you're at it.

[@JamesThomas-vt4nd]

I agree because there’s a lot of dust around the heat sink and other components in the system

[@44.caliberbrainsurgery63]

I always clean a device if I disassemble it. Depending on how deep I go, I also repaste the device.

[@beemore18]

Wtf, no way did you reassemble that unit without removing the dust and shit. That is piss poor customer service. Do better ffs.

[@lillahx1803]

yeah ik ik but youd find almost all repair places like this only do their fix for their money. they arent getting paid to dust

Très mauvaise facon de travailler la micro soudure ... ...

[@shmutovski]

What would happen if you cleaned a little dust? dislike
