    We got ours unfortunately from a passing of family on my wife’s side of the family. I hooked it up today and started playing. I heard a soft pop and my game froze. Tried turning it off and back on again and got the red green flashing with the error message. I didn’t see what error code it was. I was baffled because I never had an issue with the original Xboxes doing this in the past.

      Thanks for watching, and so sorry to hear that. It's possible that yours may not be in as rough a condition as this one though. If you're comfortable doing so, you can try opening it to check for any bulging capacitors, or any other obvious problems. That pop may have also been a capacitor blowing out as well, so do be careful. At the very least (any assuming it's not a version 1.6) the clock capacitor will need to be removed.

    I would get a schematic and start trouble shooting the eject line and checking the components around the video circuits. Their are resistor arrays attached to video out chip IC211 on the service manual. A short test on capacitors around the cpu and gpu is a quick way to test if they are dead or shorted.. I'm not 100% on this next statement but I think each bank of resistor arrays (RB246, RB244, RB242) is for the R G and B signals to the IC211 witch is the video DAC. they are an easy thing to test. Both the chips you are replacing are motor controllers. They wont help the video out issue. I would start with the video issue first as that will tell weather its worth chasing the motor issue.

    Hey man, I have the exact same issue as your other GameCube board. Have you figured anything out on it? I don't see a dollow up video :( I don't believe it's a reballing the CPU issue, I just attempted to install a pluto 2ii on my dol-101, and now I'm having this exact issue. It was perfectly functional before, after a few enamel wires were installed it all of a sudden killed my GameCube, so yeah i don't think its a cpu issue. I think the AVE N-DOL chip on the board may have went bad, which is gonna be sad for me 😅 Edit: through trail and error with diagnostics, I've found that my fuse is receiving 12v but my power regulatory circuit is not functioning correctly, which is interfering with actually turning on the CPU & GPU, some sort of protection is tripped, and it cuts off the power to the coils in the circuit, cutting power to everything lol I believe this is the same issue as you, and I'm currently looking for the Power Regulatory Circuit schematics for the DOL-101 (Not the power regulatory board for the DOL-001) if anyone has em lemme know.

    That looks like a magic v7 mod chip. As someone who has doen many ps2 mod chip installs I would call that a verry slopy install. It should be mounted on the qfp chip next to the bios chip and have muchshorter wires and they should be managed with a dot of glue to hold them in place. Also when installing the drive ribon cables its easyer to leave the metal shield with the drive clips off and putting it on after the cables are in.

    The bushing on this gear is full of hair. There is a snap ring on the inside. You can take it off and pull it apart and clean out the hairs. I dropped liquid candle wax into gap between the key for the brush and the housing. I am hoping that the wax is minimizing the gap between housing and key so that it will let through less hairs.

    • @DiscountSasquatch
      @DiscountSasquatch 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for watching, and glad I could provide some (limited) help. There's a second video where I fix the warranty replacement vacuum that was sent out (and broke three months later... so, yeah, these are not great vacuums). th-cam.com/video/SF9grl8_nag/w-d-xo.html Not sure if I'd recommend the oil, as that may just end up getting all gummy once it starts incorporating itself with dirt. But, one thing I'd recommend checking is the condition of the mating surfaces on the roller. I had to end up filing down some bumps and nicks on the surface of that second vacuum for a similar reason iirc. Also, do a sanity check to make sure all hair is cleaned off, as it's easy to miss some on the end of the roller. Lastly, the default belt that comes with the vacuum does seem to be quite loose. I even ordered some replacements thinking it was worn out, but... yeah, those belts were also loose. If you have some heavy duty tape (this is not a permanent fix), you can try winding some around the roller so that the belt fits more snugly. If that eliminates the noise, you can try getting a belt that's maybe a few mm shorter? But, yeah, I got this vacuum for free and I feel ripped off... I hope this helps you though.

    Only some of the slims had the 4GB flash included. The NAND size varied as well (matters if you do the RGH3 mod). I bought 3 or 4 from eBay last year and I think only one of them had the internal flash storage. Luckily they just use standard 2.5" SATA drives, and you can 3D print an enclosure for using your own drives as well. Plus you can plug in a FAT32 flash drive. I was expecting you to do a lot worse with the clips when I read the comments first. They really are a nightmare when you haven't gotten used to them yet. I think I wrestled with my first 360 Slim for an hour before I got anywhere, but after doing a few I can get them open no problem. This is my first time hearing about those 0 ohm resistors, that's a pretty interesting problem.

      Thanks for the info about the flash memory! May do a re-visit on this and try out my new (for me) 3D printer. And, yep, those clips are an absolute nightmare...

    Not a good design. The bearing constant clogs with hair as others have mentioned. The screw that you could not remove is backwards (right hand thread - turn it backwards from normal to loosen). It does not have to be tight - if you over tighten it that will lock up the brush (just like the wrapped up hair - the brush rotation keeps the screw from coming loose). We like the vacuum but every other use the bearing needs to be cleaned - terrible design for a “pet vaccuum” - if you can avoid long hair that wraps up the brush bearing it works well.

    At first, thank you for all your effort. I would like to ask wheter do you plan to continue this thread, because it seems I’m in the same shoe as you. I’m after a mod chip removal, but the disk tray eject doesn’t work, no spinning just the blue button blinks when I press it. I also know that the drive worked before with the chip,and I have two machines with this symptom (ps2 scph-50004)

      @@IRVERA23-po1uo I did an oscilloscope probe between 2 Xboxes; a known good power supply and the power supply in the bad Xbox. There was a noise difference between the two, indicating a possible bad power supply, however switching power supplies did not affect the error on my Xbox. Sadly the Xbox is now a parts piece, there's nothing else I can do. It's possible the power supply could have helped but I know the clock cap exploding did a number on the components around it

    shouldn't you be using silicon grease not lithium.

    • @DiscountSasquatch
      @DiscountSasquatch 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Either can be used (from what I remember). However, silicone grease has a tendency to eat away at other parts made of silicone such as seals, belts, or wire insulation. (Not to say that all lithium greases are fine though - make sure they're not petroleum-based before applying them to plastic.)

    What's missing is the typical quick change in colors and brightness when a scene on TV changes. You only have the slow changes.

    • @DiscountSasquatch
      @DiscountSasquatch 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yep, in retrospect I should have added more than two fast-flashers (the camera didn't really pick those up very well too). But, if anyone wants to duplicate this cursed design, learn from my mistakes.

    • @graealex
      @graealex 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@DiscountSasquatch I think there needs to be more coordination, even with fast flashers. Like you have a scene that runs for 2 to 10 seconds, in which you move the colors slowly, and then completely switch them over to new starting values, where you can have slow fading again. It's pretty much a job for a micro controller.

      @graelex 100% agree with you. This was just really meant to be a small project that someone with little or no background in electronics can do. I might do a redemption arc though, and try out a version 2 with an Arduino.
