Replacing the HDMI port on a PS4 is no joke! You'll need to disassemble the console, which could void your warranty. Be careful, these tiny parts are delicate. Here's a step-by-step guide: 1) Power off and unplug the console. 2) Remove the screws and outer casing. 3) Locate the HDMI port on the motherboard. 4) Use a soldering iron to detach the old port and attach the new one. 5) Reassemble the console. If this sounds too risky, seek professional help.

Honestly, unless you're experienced with electronics and soldering, I'd recommend taking the PS4 to a professional repair shop. The risk of damaging other components is high if you don't know what you're doing.

I did this last month! First, make sure you have a replacement port and soldering tools. Carefully open the PS4, desolder the old port, and solder the new one in its place. There are great YouTube tutorials that can guide you.
