PS5 Slim (EDM-040) - No Image after HDMI Port and Encoder IC Replacement

I am working on a PS5 Slim (model EDM-040). The customer’s original complaint was image flickering, which would eventually lead to a total blackout after a few minutes. Wiggling the HDMI port temporarily restored the image, but only for a few seconds before it cut out again.

So far, I have replaced both the HDMI port and the HDMI Encoder IC, but I am still getting no image output.

While troubleshooting, I found a resistor near the Encoder IC that measures as a short on the faulty board. When I checked a known working board, the in-circuit measurement for this specific resistor was 0402 22kΩ.

Does anyone know the exact value and specification for this resistor? I want to ensure I use the correct replacement. Thanks in advance!

Nothing special resistor 0603’ 22 Ohm. But a short would be more likely come from a component with connection to ground like the diode below.
