Source-linkedVerify source — Reddit post

Refurbished PS5 fat disc edition bought about six months earlier developed a loose HDMI connection that blacked out when the cable moved slightly. Owner still had warranty but preferred not to send it in, planning to reflow the HDMI port under a microscope instead of a full port replacement.
