Fixing a BROKEN Microsoft XBOX 360 Slim

Ойындар

Donated XBOX 360 Slim | Repair, Refurb, Re-Paste
I was donated a broken XBOX 360 Slim. The main component that wasn’t working was the DVD drive but since this is a restoration project I fully dissasemble the whole console and give it a deep clean. Additionally, I show how to remove the heat sink and re-apply brand new thermal paste. So the question is, can I make this XBOX 360 Slim look and work like new?! Full XBOX 360 Slim TEARDOWN, step by step!

    I got into modding consoles by fixing old broken ones too - my childhood gameboy suffered from pretty bad battery corrosion, but I was able to fix it after watching some YT videos, which then led me to seeing how relatively easy modding was, and here I am, thousands of dollars later lol. Great video as always, Tito!

    Great video! Just learned about 303 Aerospace Protectant. I've restored a couple of the fat model Xbox 360's and will be restoring one of this same model slim one soon. The disc tray issue could have been the rubber band is slipping. Easy fix by cleaning it or reducing resistance of the tray (like you did). Check out the 360 game Ninja Blade.

  • @truecauseofchaos

    I own a Japanese X360 launch model, and I bought a PAL version of the slim (looked exactly like this one) to play games that were locked to the PAL region. Many of the X360 games were region free so I survived on my Japanese console. But Gears of War 3 was locked so bought my slim to play that. Unfortunately I was burgled and they took the slim console, but left the older fat console which I still have to this day. Had to disassemble it a couple of years ago due to the same issue - the drive didn't eject. Turned out to be the rubber eject belt that needed boiling and the drive itself needed cleaning (especially where the belt touched; it gets dusty and oily over time). Enjoyed the video!

    One of the things you can do with a finicky DVD is to remove the belt and boil it for a couple of minutes keeping it off the bottom of the pan, this restores some of the elasticity so that it doesn't slip, or you can simply find replacements as the belt is often time one of the biggest issues with these. I RGH'd 2 then converted to RGH 3 on mine. I put a 2 TB drive in it and no longer have to switch disks and since I don't play it online as I have a Series X for that it makes for a better experience.

    i delid the IHS on the XCGPU to replace the dried crusty thermal paste under it too. It is not as hard as a PS3. Replaced the polymer caps with higher quality ones for longer service time. The low quality polymer caps are pink in color. Blue, dark Red color are better quality ones and hopefully don't require replacement. faulty caps do cause RLOD. finally RGH3 is installed for unlock the xbox's potential especially using hacked backwards compatibility files for OG xbox games and using bigger HDDs.

    @@MachoNachoProductions you have to be careful when you do the delid. there are smd capacitors near the edge on 1 side. xbox 360 S and E doesn't really need a delid as they run cool and quiet compared to phat ps3s especially with increased fan speeds through dashlaunch or freestyle dash. I bought 2 kronos (jasper v2) xbox 360 for cheap and sent them to get the 1500uF and 820uF capacitors replaced with polymer caps too. i can't melt the solder with my hakko soldering gun. the person who did it said he had to use 700C. these 2 kronos xb360s are set to be reliable for years to come. with RGH3 and aurora dashboard, games converted to GOD format on the internal HDD runs like a dream. no noise from the dvd drive.

    I hate that hidden tab. Apparently you can stick a pin through a part of the sticker to get it open. For my personal consoles I just bend the tab back so it doesn't latch when I close it up cause it's such a pain. Btw, one of the long black T10 screws holding the metal cage on may or may not be under a sticker. Most of the time it is. Also there's an X Clamp removal tool available on Weekend Modder that makes the process much safer and easier. It also puts all of the pressure on the heatsink and X Clamp instead of the board when reattaching the clamp. I strongly recommend it because it's easy for the screwdrover to slip out of place and gouge the PCB when removing or to bend the PCB when reattaching. 360's have pretty thin and flexible PCB's so you do not want to bend it. Also, when screwing the two screws by the power plug, make very sure not to overtighten them as that can flex the board. Some people have fixed E82 just by loosening those screws. That foam gasket is annoying but when finding a replacement you don't need one that goes all the way around. "Trinity" consoles have one that goes all the way around and Corona ones have just 4 foam points. It's more for vibration than it is for sealing. You can probably get away with cutting some standard form to make a few foam squares and then supergluing them into the fan shroud. Wow that 303 Aerosol really does the trick. Damn I'm gonna pick some up myself
