  • The Xbox 360 E is pretty easy to get into and can be fun to clean if you have an overheating and loud Xbox.
    Also... sorry about the auto focus... it will be fixed in future videos.

    I'm a little late to this party but wanted you to know your guide got me through a full disassembly and cleaning without a hitch. The only part you missed was removing the fan x-clamp. If you put a small screwdriver in the hole behind the screw and pry toward the center of the X it will pop off the clamp on the opposite side. Repeat all the way around and it will be off in about 10 seconds. 99.99% of the rest of the video was perfect. What a pain in the butt just to replace thermal paste but worth it in the long run. Keep up the great work. You've gained another subscriber. Hello from Germany!

    This is the very best instructional video I've ever seen on the Xbox 360E dismantle! I whish that this would have been the first I watched, would have saved me some time, however I came to the same methods after some time. I was given a 360 E from a previous owner that said it was gone. After a service it is now okay. However it was infested with cockroaches both in the console and the power supply!🤮🤢

    My xbox 360 e just wont turn on at all. In january i bought a 3rd party power supply and it worked but now its not turning on at all. I thought it was the power supply so I got another but even that one does not turn on the xbox. What do you think may be the issue? I plan to open it and clean it up but is there some way to see if the xbox is receiving power? I heard maybe replacing the rf module but that has more to do with the button. Any help would be great thanks!

    • @MikeLikesThat
      @MikeLikesThat  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      At that point it sounds like possibly an internal power MOSFET or capacitor may be bad. That would be an advanced repair and is not easy to find either. Alternatively it could also be the CPU becoming detached. This would also be an almost impossible repair.
      The time, tools and parts to fix any of these issues would possibly cost just as much or more than buying a used Xbox 360 E. It sucks, but at a certain point in a product's life, it does make sense to buy a full replacement versus fix it.

It was super loud and struggling to cool itself i think, i have never had the thermal paste redone or anything as i am only 15 turning 16 and it just now gave me problems. I dont have the tools to fix it and im at a loss on what to do.

      @MikeLikesThat  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't have the exact model number. But to my knowledge it would just be considered "Xbox 360 E Blue". You should be able to find the exact information on the stickers on the back of the console in between the power port in the HDMI port.
      Based on the info from wiki below it sounds like it could have been a Walmart exclusive for the 2014 holiday season.
      I found this information on wiki -
      In 2014, three Xbox 360 E bundles were sold, all with one month of Xbox Live Gold included. The 500GB Holiday Value Bundle included Call of Duty: Ghosts and a download voucher for Call of Duty: Black Ops II. A similar bundle, with a blue console and controller, was sold at Walmart. A 4GB Kinect Bundle was sold at Target, including Kinect Adventures!, Kinect Sports, and Forza Horizon.
      As of today GameStop has it refurbished for sale at $109 for the 500 gig version.

      You could use a flat headed screwdriver. On each side of the 4 clamp posts insert the flathead into the clamp parallel to the motherboard and begin to rotate the flathead 90°. This should bend the clamps ends allowing you to remove it. When reassembling, slightly bend the 4 edges of the clamp back to their original position or till ends look like a " U " shape.
