The HDMI ESD booster IC chip protects the HDMI signal path from electrostatic damage. It sits on the Xbox One S motherboard near the HDMI port.

When static electricity damages this chip, the HDMI signal is lost. The port may look intact, but there is no picture or audio output.

Common signs include no HDMI signal and a black screen on your TV. The Xbox One S powers on normally but the display stays blank.

The TV may detect the Xbox is connected but show no picture. This often happens after a power surge or static event.
