PS5 HDMI Repair – Need Help Identifying Missing Diode (EDM-030 Board)

I was doing an HDMI repair on my PS5 and thought it went well, but I noticed that whenever I touched the HDMI cable, the console would lose display. I tried reheating the port, and during that process a small black diode near the HDMI port came off the board. I did try soldering it back on but no luck there.

I’m wondering if anyone can help me identify exactly which component this is so I can order a replacement, and also if you might know why the PS5 would cut out display when the HDMI cable is moved slightly.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Hi!

That's a diode! You can find some more info here: Replacing hdmi port on ps5 when Small black box next to hdmi port fell off. : r/consolerepair

And yes, it does sound like a faulty HDMI port. I would completely replace it.

If you can't find the part and can't get it back on, I would check a local repair shop to see if they can help you!
