The Xbox Series X is Microsoft's flagship current-generation console, and the repairs we see most often are HDMI port damage, green screen of death, power faults and disc drive issues. HDMI port replacement starts from £65. Free diagnosis on everything else.
Pick up available from Uxbridge, Hillingdon, Ickenham, West Drayton and the surrounding West London area.
The Xbox Series X outputs 4K at 120Hz, that HDMI port carries a significant amount of signal and stress over time. A damaged port means no picture, a flickering image, or a resolution drop that the console cannot explain through software alone. Most "black screen on TV" calls we get about the Series X come back to a faulty HDMI port. The port is surface-mounted to the mainboard and needs micro-soldering to replace properly. We do this regularly for customers from Uxbridge, Hillingdon and across the area. From £65.
Some Xbox Series X consoles get stuck on a green startup screen and fail to boot into the dashboard. This can be a software corruption issue, in which case a reset or system reinstall resolves it, or a hardware fault that requires board level investigation. We diagnose the exact cause before recommending a fix, so you are not paying for work that will not solve the problem. Call for a quote.
The Xbox Series X not turning on, or shutting itself down mid-game, points to a power delivery problem. Unlike the original Xbox One, the Series X has its power supply built directly into the unit, there is no external brick to replace. That means a power fault is board level work. We carry out the diagnosis and give you a clear repair quote. Call for a quote.
The disc version of the Xbox Series X can develop drive faults over time. Games not being read, grinding or clicking noises when a disc is inserted, and the drive refusing to accept discs at all are all faults we deal with. We inspect the mechanism and give you a clear repair recommendation before starting any work. Call for a quote.
The Series X is designed as a tall tower specifically to aid airflow, but dust accumulates in the vents and heatsink over time regardless of how the console is positioned. Once cooling efficiency drops, the fan becomes noticeably loud, the console thermally throttles performance, and in worse cases shuts down unexpectedly mid-game. A full internal clean and thermal compound refresh resolves this for most consoles. Call for a quote.
Xbox Series X controller issues we see regularly include stick drift, where the analogue stick registers movement without being touched, broken or stiff bumper buttons, and charging port damage on the USB-C or AA battery cover. If the controller makes games unplayable, bring it in alongside the console and we will look at both at the same time. Call for a quote.
The Series X HDMI port is surface-mounted to the mainboard. Replacing it properly requires micro-soldering not a swap-and-hope approach. We carry out this repair correctly, without damaging surrounding components.
We run a full diagnostic before quoting for anything beyond the HDMI port. If the fault is not repairable or the cost does not make sense, we tell you honestly. No surprise charges.

Call for a Valuation, 07919 188935When the Series X powers on, you hear the startup chime and the disc drive responds, but the TV shows a blank screen, the HDMI port is almost always the cause. The console outputs 4K at 120Hz and that signal path puts real demand on the port connection over time. Bent pins, a damaged socket, or failed solder joints can all interrupt the signal. Occasionally a resolution mismatch from a firmware update is responsible, but we check both. Call 07919 188935 or bring it in for a free diagnosis.

In many cases, yes. The green screen of death can be caused by software corruption, a corrupted system update, a failed reset, or a storage fault, or by a hardware issue on the board.
