Most dead PS5s aren't dead. The failures we see over and over — a cracked HDMI port, heat-soaked thermal paste, a disc drive that stopped gripping — are all repairable. Aura Tech fixes PlayStation 5, PS5 Slim, and PS5 Digital Edition consoles in our Christiansburg shop, so nothing gets shipped across the country and lost for a month.

Bring it in for a $25 diagnostic, credited toward your repair. You'll get a written quote with a real timeline before we open the console, and an honest answer if the repair isn't worth what the console is worth.

What's included

HDMI port replacement

No signal, black screen, or picture that cuts out when the cable moves — we replace the HDMI port at the board level.

Overheating & beeping shutdowns

Three beeps and a shutdown usually means heat. Full teardown, cleanout, and liquid metal or paste service done carefully and correctly.

Disc drive repair

Discs that won't load, won't eject, or grind on insert — gear, belt, laser, and full drive replacement.

Won't turn on / blue light

Power supply, power board, and startup diagnostics for consoles stuck blinking or completely unresponsive.

SSD storage upgrades

M.2 NVMe installs with the right heatsink, formatted and tested so you can stop deleting games.

DualSense controller repair

Stick drift, dead triggers, unresponsive buttons, and worn USB-C charge ports.

Software & safe mode issues

Update loops, corrupted database, safe mode boot problems, and network or account sign-in help.

PS4 & older consoles

We still service PS4, PS4 Slim, and PS4 Pro — HDMI ports, fans, drives, and power supplies.

Frequently asked

Why is my PS5 beeping and shutting off?

Three beeps followed by a shutdown is almost always a thermal protection trip. Dust in the heatsink plus degraded or pumped-out thermal compound stops the console from cooling. A teardown, cleanout, and thermal service resolves the vast majority of these.

How much does PS5 HDMI port replacement cost?

It depends on whether only the port failed or surrounding board components were damaged when it broke. We quote it in writing after the $25 diagnostic, and you approve the price before any work begins.

My PS5 turns on but there's no picture. Is it fixable?

Usually yes. The most common cause is a damaged HDMI port, which we replace at the board level. We first rule out the cable, the TV input, and console settings during the $25 diagnostic.

Can you fix a PS5 disc drive that won't take discs?

Yes. PS5 drives typically fail at the loading gears, the belt, or the laser. We repair the drive where possible and replace it when it's beyond repair.

Do you use liquid metal when you repair a PS5?

We service the console the way it was designed. Liquid metal application on a PS5 requires care to avoid shorting nearby components, and we handle the barrier and reapplication properly rather than shortcutting it with paste where it doesn't belong.

Do you repair the PS5 Slim and Digital Edition?

Yes — original PS5, PS5 Slim, and Digital Edition, plus PS4, PS4 Slim, and PS4 Pro.

Will I lose my games or saves?

No. A repair doesn't wipe your console, and saves sync to your PlayStation account. If a repair would require a reset, we ask you first.

How long does a PS5 repair take?

Most repairs finish in 2–5 business days. Jobs waiting on a specialty part such as a disc drive assembly can take longer, and we include the timeline in your quote.

"Skyler was knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to explain everything in a way that actually made sense. He didn't try to upsell me or use a bunch of technical jargon — just honest advice and quality work. My issue was resolved quickly and pricing was fair. It's great having a local business you can trust for tech support in the New River Valley."
