Frequently asked questions
Useful answers before you visit
For model-specific advice, send the exact model and clear photographs.
Do I need an appointment?+
Appointments are recommended for the quickest service, but both Bristol stores can also assess walk-in enquiries. Booking ahead is especially useful when a particular replacement part may need to be reserved.
Will my data be erased?+
Most hardware repairs do not require a reset, but every repair carries some data risk. Back up important information before handing over the device whenever possible. Data retention cannot be guaranteed.
How long will the repair take?+
Many common repairs may be completed the same day when the correct part is available. Complex faults, liquid damage and board-level work need diagnosis before an accurate timescale can be confirmed.
Is the repair covered by a warranty?+
Qualifying repairs include warranty protection for the fitted part and covered workmanship. Physical damage, liquid damage, misuse and unrelated faults are excluded. The exact terms are confirmed with your quotation.

Service-specific guidance
Console diagnosis before HDMI or overheating work
No-display and shutdown symptoms can come from several faults, so testing should confirm the cause before board work begins.
HDMI port condition
Bent pins, looseness and physical damage may require port replacement and inspection of the surrounding board pads.
HDMI encoder faults
A visually intact port does not rule out board-level signal faults. Additional diagnosis may be required.
Cooling service
Dust, fan faults and thermal material can contribute to overheating, but repeated shutdowns may also indicate power or board problems.
Storage and software
Update loops, safe-mode failures and storage faults may require a different repair path from physical hardware work.
