Xbox 360 with Red Ring of Death
In this video, I'm going to try and repair an Xbox 360 with red ring of death that I got from ebay
I did some research on the console and what to check and look for
1) Check the power supply and make sure that you have plugged into the console properly
2) Make sure the power pack is working when it's all plug in, and when you turn on the console the light on the power pack will turns green if it turns orange or red that's not a good and try anther power pack ( it might be the power pack that is faulty
3) Unplug all the cables to the console then reinsert them and then reboot the console
4) Allow the console to cool down especially after prolonged use and try again
5) Try removing the Xbox hard drive and turn the Xbox back on if there is no error turn the console off then reattach the hard drive and then restart the Xbox
6) What I did was heat the board up for several minutes on both sides then apply flux around the GPU and the CPU then apply more heat to the board again for 5 minutes around the GPU and CPU then let the board cool down for one hour then clean with alcohol 99.9% then add the thermal compound to the GPU & CPU before putting the console back together
Tools
Screw driver set
Isopropanol alcohol 99.9%
Flux
Heat gun
Air blower
Thermal compound ( MX-4 recommend )
Parts
New clamps

This is only a temporary fix, it’ll RROD again. The GPU needs replaced entirely

What if the gpu is fine?? I have heard that solder ball can be the problem in 2005-07 models!!

I also did the heat gun method back in the day. It will work for a while then fail again, I can guarantee that! The only way to properly fix this is to re-ball the CPU and GPU with a higher quality solder.

Great work and good thing that you bought the xclamps. Sadly this is not a fix, there is no "reflowing GPU" at RROD, because it's a flip chip fail. You need to swap the GPU with a compatible fixed revision, or GPU mod it. Great work eitherway!

@@FR4M3Sharma GPU mod is when you use a Fixed GPU on older board. It needs some changes on the board and software, but it's been done before. Xenon is the Hardest to do
So, those capacitors with the dried electrolyte volcano's on top? Not worth changing them?

You're not the only one to see those caps and cringe. Any leaking or bulging electrolytic cap means you need to replace ALL electrolytic caps!

I wish you would able to fix my Xbox 360 Fat lol. Mine will only read games when horizontal and sometimes the disc tray comes out and sometimes not. It’s really dusty from the inside since mine was manufactured in 2007 and sometimes it will turn off out of nowhere and sometimes not
