Black screen with the console running
The power light is on and the controller pairs, but the TV stays black on every input and with every cable you try.
New Jersey · nationwide mail-in
Your Xbox powers on but the TV says no signal? Microsoft publishes its own display checks, and several of them are free fixes. If none brings the picture back, book a diagnostic: Xbox HDMI port replacement is bench work, with New Jersey handover and nationwide mail-in.
A $50 deposit reserves your appointment once we confirm it — not a second charge, it covers your diagnostic and goes toward your repair
Recognize the problem
A worn or broken port is only one reason for a black screen. Microsoft also lists the TV input, the cable, a display setting the TV can't show, and an audio-video receiver between the console and the TV. Tell us what you notice so the diagnostic can tell them apart.
The power light is on and the controller pairs, but the TV stays black on every input and with every cable you try.
Look into the port marked "out to TV" on the back of the console. Pins that are bent, pushed in or missing, or a connector that shifts when the cable is touched, point at the port itself.
A cable yanked sideways, or a console moved while still connected, can bend or crack the port. Tell us when the picture went, and whether it comes back while the cable is held still.
Find the cause
Microsoft's steps for a TV that stays blank with the console on rule out the free causes first. If your Xbox still shows nothing after them, the port is worth a diagnostic.
Make sure the TV is set to the right HDMI input, and that the cable is firmly in the port marked "out to TV" on the console. Then try another HDMI port on the TV, another HDMI cable, and another TV if you have one.
A display setting the TV can't show looks like a dead port. Microsoft's reset: eject any disc, hold the power button for 10 seconds to turn the console off, then hold the power and eject buttons until the second beep. On a Series S, which has no eject button, hold the Xbox button and the Pair button instead. The console starts at 640 × 480.

Plan the repair
An Xbox HDMI port is soldered to the board. Replacement needs soldering equipment and a teardown, so this work goes back to the bench rather than being completed at your door. In New Jersey, a visit can handle the handover; confirm the arrangements when you book.
You can also mail the console from anywhere in the US and track the repair by ticket number.
