I have a 2 yr old PS3 the HDMI port in the back is messed up. I've put 3 different cables in it but they all don't work. Well they work but I have to wiggle them and then it doesn't stay working for more than 10 minutes before I have to adjust it.
Any solutions? Is it possible for me to change the port out? If so where do I buy it? Google has been little help.

Unfortunately my only expertise in video game consoles is a bit dated. Try blowing in it. If that doesn't work then my expertise is at its end.

The thread title should've deterred you.

Wiggle cable until working then secure with duct tape.

Hope this helps.

JB Weld the cable into the port.

You're welcome.
