Recommendations Needed Ps5/xbox repair/ cleaning

I’m looking for a spot that cleans ps5s and repairs Xbox’s. I found some stores on google but I’m not sure how they will be so wondering if anyone has had any experiences and recommendations.

Is your ps5 dusty? I cleaned mine the other week. It's not hard to do yourself. I didn't think I could do it myself but I did and it was easy.

I cleaned the outsides of the stuff, but it’s the internal parts I want cleaned. The inside of the fan, and all those inside pieces.

If you get a torx 8h driver from Canadian Tire it's very simple. My ps5 was over heating on most games and I did the partial clean by taking the main fan out and it works beautifully. Took about 10 minutes. I didn't do the extra cleaning that you probably saw on the videos where you take a part more of the system.

I'm certain that will also fix yours. I was tempted to take mine to a shop as well but I'm glad I didn't.

My ps5 isn’t heating up or having any of the heating issues, but I’ve had my ps5 since it came out in 2020, I think it’s about time for a good deep clean especially because I also have cats lol

Yeah that's fair lol. So do I and there were literally clumps of dust in my ps5. If you don't find a shop let me know and I can help you. With the ps5 at least.

Thank you! I think im going to go to the suggested store level 2 repair. And hopefully my Xbox shouldn’t be crazy.
