Hi guys. PS5 slim EDM-040. Boots normally without video outpput. Checked hdmi port and it is fine with solid pins. Three zener diodes multimeter forward measurement shows a voltage drop of around 0.5V, but reverse measurement shows also a voltage drop instead of OL. I have another working motherboard where zener diodes reverse measurement are all “OL”. The zener diode itsself is fine because I have tested it and replace with a new one and voltage drop still exist.

It is maybe a faulty HDMI encoder

or somewhere is shorted?

I would check the readings at the HDMI port:

At the Zener diodes I would expect one way aprox 0.7V and reversed OL in diode mode.
And at the Zener diode near the HDMI port one way ap. 0.7V and reversed 1.2V.

May thanks. I have replaced hdmi encoder Nuvoton MN864739 and it is working. I have several Panasonic spare chips but afraid it is not compatible so bought Nuvoton same brand

Nuvoton is only the new owner of Panasonic Semiconductor and therefore the newer chips have the new name on it. The HDMI chip itself is the same.
