PS5 Repairs
If you own an original PlayStation 5, your console is likely part of the CFI-1000 model group. This includes the CFI-1000, CFI-1100 and CFI-1200 series of PS5 consoles.
At SavedGame, we repair both the PS5 Disc Edition and PS5 Digital Edition, including HDMI faults, no signal, no power, overheating, cooling problems, disc drive faults and other hardware issues.
Repair Prices are on our main PS5 Page here and it lists all faults and repair prices
Which PS5 models does this repair page cover?
This page covers the original, full-size PS5 model family:
- CFI-1000 series
- CFI-1100 series
- CFI-1200 series
Sony groups these revisions together as the original PS5 model group. They share the larger original PS5 chassis, although internal components and layouts can vary between individual revisions.
You may see a more specific model number on your console, such as:
- CFI-10XX
- CFI-11XX
- CFI-12XX
For example, UK and European consoles may use model numbers such as CFI-1116A or CFI-1216A, depending on the specific console and region.
The exact suffix is useful when identifying your console, but you do not need to know your full model number before contacting us. We can check your console and confirm the correct revision before carrying out a repair.
How do I identify my original PS5?
The easiest way to identify your exact PS5 is to check the model number printed on the console label.
Your console belongs to this page if the model number begins with:
- CFI-10
- CFI-11
- CFI-12
You can also usually identify an original PS5 by its:
- Large, full-size chassis
- Two large white side panels
- USB-A and USB-C ports on the front
- Original PS5 base design
Original CFI-1000 model group consoles have one USB Type-A and one USB Type-C port on the front.
PS5 Disc Edition and Digital Edition repairs
The original PS5 was available as both a Disc Edition and a Digital Edition.
PS5 Disc Edition
The Disc Edition has an integrated Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive and can play compatible physical PS5 and PS4 games.
PS5 Digital Edition
The Digital Edition does not have a disc drive and is designed for digitally downloaded games.
We repair both versions. Because internal parts can differ between Disc Edition, Digital Edition and individual CFI revisions, we check the exact console before ordering or fitting replacement components.

Does the CFI model number matter when repairing a PS5?
Yes. Although CFI-1000, CFI-1100 and CFI-1200 consoles are all part of the original PS5 model family, Sony made changes to internal components between revisions.
This can affect:
- Replacement parts
- Cooling components
- Internal layouts
- Disc drive components
- Power-related components
- Repair procedures
For this reason, we identify the exact model and fault before carrying out the repair.
PS5 HDMI repair for CFI-1000, CFI-1100 and CFI-1200 models
One of the most common physical faults we see is a damaged HDMI port.
Symptoms can include:
- No signal on the TV
- A black screen
- A loose HDMI cable connection
- Visible damage inside the HDMI port
- Bent or missing HDMI pins
- Display cutting in and out
A damaged HDMI port can cause no display even when the PS5 appears to power on normally. We can diagnose the fault and determine whether the problem is the HDMI connector itself or another fault affecting the display circuit.
PS5 overheating and cooling problems
If your original PS5 is overheating, shutting down or producing excessive fan noise, the cause may be related to the cooling system.
Possible causes include:
- Dust buildup
- Restricted airflow
- Fan faults
- Heatsink contamination
- Poor thermal contact
- Liquid metal distribution issues
- Other internal cooling faults
We diagnose the cause rather than assuming that every overheating console requires the same repair.

How long does a repair usually take?
Most repairs are turned around within a few days of us receiving the console, though it depends on the fault and whether parts need ordering in. We’ll always give you a realistic timeframe once we’ve had a proper look.
My HDMI port doesn’t work / there’s no picture — can it be fixed?
Yes — HDMI port replacement is one of the most common repairs I do. If your PS5 powers on (fan running, light on) but you’re getting no picture, it’s very likely the HDMI port itself rather than anything more serious.
Is there a warranty on the repair?
Board-level and electrical repairs come with a 12-month warranty. Wear-and-tear on any parts such as bent HDMI pins or bent port housing will invalidate the wattanty as this can only be caused by accidental damage or misuse.
Why does my PS5 keep overheating or shutting itself down?
Usually the factoryliquid metal has dried out, especially on consoles that have had a few years of regular use. A proper reapplication (and a clean-out of built-up dust) sorts most of these.
Can you fix a loud or failing fan?
es — sometimes it just needs a proper clean and re-lubrication, other times the fan itself needs replacing. Either way it’s a straightforward job.
