Common gaming console problems we fix

Console will not turn on. Often a failed power supply, a damaged power port or a board-level fault. We test before we recommend anything, so you only pay for what the console actually needs.

Overheating and loud fans. Dust build-up, dried thermal paste and blocked vents are the usual culprits, especially in warm Illawarra summers. A professional re-paste can stop shutdowns and extend the life of your console.

No picture or "no signal" (HDMI port damage). Bent or broken HDMI ports are one of the most common console faults. Replacing the port is delicate micro-soldering work, and it is exactly what our workshop does. Try a different cable and TV first; if it still fails, bring it in.

Disc drive not reading games. Discs that will not load, eject or spin can point to a faulty drive, a lens issue or a mechanical jam. We repair or replace the drive and test with real discs.

Controller and Joy-Con drift. If your character walks on its own, the analogue stick sensor is worn. We can replace the stick module so you do not need to buy a whole new controller.

Cracked screens and broken charging ports. Handhelds like the Switch and Steam Deck take knocks. We replace screens, charging ports and batteries.

Liquid damage. Spilled a drink on your console? Switch it off and unplug it straight away, and bring it in as soon as you can. Quick action gives the best chance of saving it.

Storage, update and boot problems. Stuck on a boot loop, failing updates or full storage? We diagnose software and hardware faults and can upgrade storage where the console supports it.
