Extremely helpful! Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Sensei 🙏. Im a mom of two on a budget and I DID IT thanks to your video! (Had to replace the disc-drive. )
brooooo thank you so much, you dont realise how much sufferage i had to open the clips, but thanks to your tip! i now could open them with ease, thank you sooooo much huge appreciation you deserve 100ks *
Dude! The moment of truth, should've done a play test 😅. Great stuff on the assembly/reassembly. My 360 slim is due for a new thermal past. Opened it up last week and gave it a good cleaning. My Isopropyl and thermal paste arrived today. You've got a good flow for instructions.
I did my refurbishment on New Year eve. The thing was, my Xbox didn’t have the X brace holding in the heatsink. Instead it was held in with Flathead screws and several delrin and stainless steel washers attached it both screws and underside of the Heatsink (I bought my 360 years ago from a pawn shop after my original got damaged in a move). Cleaning was a PAIN as the previous paste was completely dried and required a lot of rubbing alcohol on both the CPU, and Heatsink to be removed. I used Protronix Series 7 for my Thermal paste of choice. The Console runs fine now Thanks to your tutorial, albeit the Heatsink was Installed differently from the factory Specs.
What size were the hex bits used to turn the screws? I wish I knew about the tricks to unlock some of those hidden clips throughout this puzzle box before I tried to disassemble it. Thanks for showing me the right way to do it. It's too late for this slim but I won't destroy the next one now lol.
@@Wildsamsquanch7 I figured out what the issue was. I was tightening the case too much, so the rotating magnet above couldn't move. Figured something was wrong when I kept the reader open and the laser moved and the disc spun.
What is that rubber dampener called, that wraps around the rear of the disc drive? Saw that mine was degraded, and falling apart because of rubber rot from old age. But I can’t seem to search for the correct term online to purchase one. I know it’s used for shock absorption, so I’d like to replace it soon.
I second this question! I have a 1439 model with what appears to be a broken MU(not saving correctly, updates not working regardless of having external storage), and I'm wondering if I am able to remove the internal MU completely to resolve this?
Update: I removed the side just like the first step in the tutorial, if you shine a flashlight in you will either see that there is a seperate PCB sticking up(like the video) or it will be soldered. Luckily in my case, it was a seperate board, so tomorrow I will take apart and remove the MU. I will update on how this goes, hopefully this helps you man
@@Wildsamsquanch7 First off, thank you so much for replying! Seond off, if possible can you make a video if you get the tools and develop the skills, either way thank you so much !

Great video, thank you so much it was very helpful.

This comment makes my day! So happy you successfully tackled the repair and that the video helped. 😁
@@Wildsamsquanch7 how do you know when the thermal paste needs to be replaced?

Sounds like the infamous bolt mod.
@@ineedandrenaline It was a pain to reattach
@@StabTheDabb I think I'll have to replace my thermal paste sooner or later. Although my Slim is pretty quiet, I know nothing lasts forever.
@@ineedandrenaline Use Silver Paste
Thank you! This will be saved for the future,
Of course!
Good guide, better than any of the others I clicked on, even though mine has a different model disc drive.
Jam in an internal green LED near the fan vent.
Great, well explained 👍🏼

@@BeeWaifu THank you. If you are off by one size they will strip out instantly lol.
holy crap thank you so much this was very helpful
I did what you did with your disc drive, and now the laser doesn't move. I didn't touch anything but the laser (to clean) and lubes up everything.
I would go back through and check that all of your ribbon cables and connections are secure.

@@BeeWaifu Awesome! Happy to hear you solved the problem!!!

No this would not be a jasper. Those were only in the previous 360 models
Bruh i scartch the cliffs is it ok💀
Great video thank you
Thank you!
Does this fix the RDOD/RROD?
It doesn't fix the RROD. That's a much more complex process that I don't have the skill nor the tools to do unfortunately.
@@Wildsamsquanch7 First off, thank you so much for replying! Seond off, if possible can you make a video if you get the tools and develop the skills, either way thank you so much !
Does this fix rrod?
It does not, I believe most RROD issues would require reballing the Cpu/Gpu chips. Unfortunately, that work is beyond my skill level.
Ended up breaking the power cord cable thing. What a horrible design
You moved way too fast through re-assembly and now I have a random screw that isn't in the console anymore. Thanks >:(
Whatever, a repair without a single leftover screen isn't a good repait
