comes out the used slims will drop in price from $179 to $150 or maybe $100
and they wont run as hot cus the chip die it smaller
@ThaEvilBoy dude im having the same problem!!!!
ReplyDeleteHOLY.... what's up with your pinkie
ReplyDeleteso red ring is due 2 over heating?
ReplyDeleteI finished my repair of the three red rings on my xbox 360. All I had to do
ReplyDeletewas place the fan over disk drive and heat sink for 20 minutes. Turn it
off, uplug cables for 15 minutes. Reassemble it all back. Thrree Red Rings
no longer appear. I didn't have to replace the x-clamps and new thermal
paste. Thanks for the video!
it still show red light
ReplyDeleteI repair consoles so people listen to this. When you tighten the screws DO
ReplyDeleteNOT tighten them this hard. It will thin out the thermal paste so thin it
will overheat again very quickly. tighten it so you feel the smallest
amount of resistance then let it overheat without the fan. Then tighten the
screws barely then let cool then reassemble. Hope this helps.
So I don't need a x clamp just put screws and stuff
ReplyDeleteWeres the thermal paste for?
ReplyDeletenice.
ReplyDeleteshould i retest it after 15 minute cooldown with fan shroud attached before
ReplyDeletei drill everything back together?
@PsPCRaZy2008 2 lighyts means its over heating i think, dont know what
ReplyDeletecould have happened though????
i did lol
ReplyDeletei did all the steps but my fans only spin for about 3 seconds when i turn
ReplyDeleteit on to overheat and after about 10 minutes nothing is even warm?? also i
am getting no video either help please
Can't see the logic in that myself, would you care to elaborate?
ReplyDeleteyour xbox is shorting out somewhere, more than likely the heatsinks screws
ReplyDeletehave been tightened too much or you only have 2 washers on each screw. Have
3 washers for each screw and tighten by hand.
OMFG - I randomly came across my old RRoD xbox all boxed up in the garage,
ReplyDeleteand thought I'd see if it was still toast or not - it was. Then I figured
I'd goole to see if there were any DiY solutions, and found this - I
followed every step exactly, and even though it died on me 4 years ago, and
has been sitting in a box in my garage since then, all it took was the ~$20
in materials and some time, and I HAVE AN XBOX ONCE MORE!!!!! THANK YOU
THANK YOU for this video!!!!
Ok, so I did everything exactly as it was said in the video, but when i
ReplyDeletetried to overheat it, the fan was working for just few seconds and then
turned off, but the 3 red lights were still glowing... can smbdy help me?
thx...
well it worked for 10 mins then the screen went all glitchy and e74 came
ReplyDeleteback : ( any tips on how to sort it out?
Wow, first... WAY too much thermal grease. Second, you didnt smear the
ReplyDeletepaste and take off the excess
Hey, i bought your kit and did all this, what are the metal washers for?
ReplyDeleteThey didnt seem to be needed in the videos?
Thanks to the invaluable guidance of +Tony Love I was able to fix the Red
ReplyDeleteRing of Death error on my Xbox 360 yesterday evening with the instructional
video below and this kit of parts and tools:
http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-XCLAMP-Repair-Kit/dp/B001HVU8JO/ref=sr_1_28?ie=UTF8&qid=1327865185&sr=8-28
It took me between two and three hours to do, in part because it was my
first time opening up an Xbox and I went slowly and carefully. I also made
the classic mistake of laboriously screwing a case together before noticing
that I forgot to reinstall a part that belongs inside it. On the other
hand, I've worked on the guts of PCs before, so I may have proceeded more
confidently than someone who's never handled a motherboard. Your mileage
may vary.
This process involves replacing some of the Xbox hardware with bolts and
washers, and one omission in the video was information on what I could
throw away afterward. (The X Clamps and the 8 bolts and 8 screws that hold
them on.) Also there are some points where the dude REALLY NEEDS TO HOLD
THE CAMERA STILL so you can see what he's doing. Otherwise it's very clear
and easy to follow along.
If you get the RROD and your Xbox is not under warranty, you don't have
money to burn, and you don't mind doing slow, fiddly, occasionally
frustrating work on very small components, this is a great solution. (I
imagine that people who enjoy painting miniatures will have no problem with
this.) Also it will make you feel like a superhero for having brought your
gaming console back from the dead.
Music???
ReplyDeletei really enjoy the music, it makes it look so easy
ReplyDeleteNice guide, hopefully this will fix my RROD console.
ReplyDeleteyou failed to mention the machine screws in your list
ReplyDeleteTurn my xbox on and instantly turns to two red lights! Fixed one problem
ReplyDeleteonly to cause another!
