Okay. So I wanted to go ahead and put a comment out there because there seems to be a lot of comments talking about their console being messed up. So I wanted to put this out there pretty clearly. If you go ripping stuff off of your console, chances are, you're probably going to screw it up. For the people with WiFi issues, you were too rough with how you took it apart. Check out the video... am I ripping those antennas off? No, I'm not. I even clearly say use your fingernails to just pop it off. And just so we all understand, I still use this exact same console as a tester to this very day and the WiFi works perfectly. So no, I did not show you how to break your console, and it is not my fault that you decided to take apart a delicate piece of electronic equipment without understanding that you need to be careful. Lastly, I clearly mention, and multiple times I might add, that you should be careful when working with that front face plate ribbon and to not rip the console around while that is still attached. So just to reiterate, I am sorry if something bad happened to your console, I know that sucks, but nothing I did in this video will cause you to break your console. Just because you didn't do something like I showed you or you were a little more rough with something that you should have been, doesn't mean it was someone else's fault, though part of me does understand why people try everything they can to make something not their own fault.
Tinker Mods yup I just ripped that little cord at the front and it won't turn on anymore.. the panel fell off the surface I was using and snapped it, I doubt I'll get a reply here, but what's that cord called? How can it be fixed/reinstalled?
It is called a flex ribbon. You can buy a replacement but it is difficult to install. You can also just buy a replacement faceplate that has the flex ribbon ready to connect
Because of $$$ .. if cars were easy to fix there would be allot less mechanics and allot less units. If systems were easy to fix less systems would be made and less would sold

Thanks a bunch! Followed every step to dissasemble and cleaned the whole system thoroughly! Just snapped everything back together and now its working perfectly! It haven't worked in over a year but now runs perfectly. Thank you!!
I'm not sure why everybody's saying this would break your xbox. I just pulled mine apart based off everything on this video and it worked perfectly fine. I clean the shit out of it.
Took my first shot at this yesterday. The opposite back corner was the hardest part to release. That cable on the front can be unplugged. It has an unusual design....a part that loops around behind the connector. If you lift the back of the loop, and release the catches on the sides, it unplugs easily. Definitely should be easier to open.
To remove the band, the piece it is clipped into on the main condole, pull both sides of the tabs in the direction towards the power button. The band is pressure held in place. Once the tab is open on both sides, carefully remove the band from the tab.
@@lzrxnonxbox7394 unlucky lad and advice. I accidentally unplugged that cable for the touchscreen but you can easily plug it back in so don't worry about it
I turned to this video for help so that I can maintain my Xbox One and keep it dusted and clean. This video was helpful and deserves a like from me. :)
Thank you so much, my fan doesnt sound like a jet engine anymore! I cleaned out my xbox and put it back together without a problem. I'm so happy it's so clean now
This worked great, unfortunately I did break the sync ribbon when I was removing the case but I managed to get my Xbox working again and u can sync a controller with a usb cable
Thanks for the video. My x box stoped working. I never would have been able to get it apart without braking it. This video saved my x box during covid lock down.

I just recently did this because my console would randomly turn off after turning on and found that my Xbox had dead roaches inside I think they fried my stuff 🤣😭
Thanks for the video. Used it to change out the mechanical portion of the disc drive, and it works again! No trouble with the wifi or the optical buttons. The weird speaker for the console sounds looks exactly like a headphone speaker.
In order for designers at Microsoft to make more seamless designs, it needs to have rock solid seams. thankfully they didn't need to do that with the One X just by design. I also need to mention that I had no trouble disassembling my original Xbox One.
I know your not gonna see this but thank you for this video my Xbox wouldn’t turn in and I piped if the side panel from this vid and cleaned it and it’s as good as new your amazing
Thank you! I recently turned 18 and I was able to purchase a used xbox that was clearly in a house where they smoked. I needed a tutorial to open it so I can clean the fan

I appreciate this tutorial. I needed to clean my xbox as it had been infested with roaches. This helped a lot and my xbox runs and smells better. Thank you!
story time, so a while ago i was looking for tutorials to take apart snd clean my xbox since there has been a dust buildup, I took it apart and When i put it back together i had connection issues with my Controller I suspect it was the ribbon i was not careful with, Today i revisited this video for the instructions To take it apart and put it back together, I fixed the Ribbons Connection and now my controller has a steady and stable connection So Lesson Learned. *Be super careful with the ribbon* And thanks for making this video 🤝

UK model likely has different torx screws, T10 for top screws (though T8 will fit with a little play). T8 not small enough for the front three that clip the green circuit board to the front (can;t say which size as my smaller drivers were "borrowed" and not returned. Also recommend car facia removal tools for unclipping the plastic casing, full set costs very little on ebay and perfect for not damaging plastic on all sorts of equipment.
No it means your console has contracted digital HIV, that's become full blown virtual Aids. The wifi & console shut downs will progressively get worse until permanent console death... there is no cure! However, you can treat the symptoms via trouble shooting your console (reboot) or getting in touch with xbox.com/support. And or contacting your ISP to troubleshoot your modem/router to make sure it is servicing everything on your home network, in this case your xb1.
Yes that ribbon is removable.. same as the Xbox slim... Jus lift up the flap an slightly pull up the to side plastic things or edges rather an that's it ribbon slides out easily
Dude I have the same problem..I don't have roaches anywhere in the house but they love the fucking xbox..They shut off my shit and eject my game randomly all fucking night.
I do recommend tool preparation, a tripod, better lighting, soap and warm water with intensive scrubbing for at least 30 seconds, nail clippers, a nail file, and hand lotion. That is all.
The ribbon on the face plate is very common in laptops. They can be removed easily if you know how too. As for the comments. Use medical/laytex gloves. This will stop dirt/grease transfer onto electrical components such as the Wifi card. You need to use force (without brutality) to take the top off. But when handling the wires and electronics, you need to be sensitive. (Think about trying to pick up sharp broken glass without cutting yourself, you need to have grip but slow and gentle).
@@PaigeFord-wg2lu sometimes ribbons are held in place with pieces of tape. If that is what you mean, then it's not a problem, just use electrical tape to stick it back. If the actual ribbon has peeled apart (ie. The ribbon is in 2 pieces) then that's not got good and it will need replacing.
Thanks alot was very usefull for me and if you take care of what you are doing and follow the steps your fine. My Xbox pop me a message this morning that my Xbox was overeating so I follow all of is step and now my Xbox work like a brand New one thanks again for your tutorial hope it work for you all
thank you for this, you helped me figure out how to take off the side plate without damaging my xbox, i had a problem with my sync button not working but now it works
Thank you so much for this. I'm getting ready to sell my pre-owned xbox one Halo special edition console, & somehow the front corner near the disc tray popped loose. I'm not sure if I bought it that way, or if maybe it happened during the many trips I've taken it on, but simply figuring out how to pop the side panel off made it SOOO much easier to pop back in. Probably added at least $20-$50 to the value by fixing this cosmetic issue!
Thnx. Power went out in the house then came back on 3 days later now it won’t work, any idea where I should start? $15 power button panel with ribbon connectors? Already tries power brick which is good.
thanks man my friends little sisters xbox broke and they were going to make him give his one X which he paid for to his little sister just so she could play Minecraft and fortnite thanks to you I was able to take it apart and clean it and it works perfectly fine
Why do this when you can just plug in the back, an external 2tb portable hard drive with a short usb cable. Get some Velcro adhesive strips and put them on the bottom of the drive and the top of your xbox. Works great, plus then i can bring ONLY my hard drive with me when i go to a friends house (since there are two consoles) and I have everything with me. I have a hotspot (unlimited) from my phone so i can even take my drive and update on someones wifi network so I don't get throttled.
I want disassembly my X-box and use without superior case. I use only frontal case (because the ON/OFF is here). My X-box is very hot temperature during the gaming. Amd I want disassembly.
Thanks dude! awesome video, that round thing on top is the speaker, and you also said that the front panel is connected. This can be removed but it is tricky, the plastic hook at the end of the ribbon slides back on and can be reattached
thanks a lot! my xbox broke for no apparent reason and i had a disc stuck in it still. the manuel eject wasn’t working for whatever reason either so i just ripped it apart and grabbed my disc from the blu ray player. again, tysm!
Bah almost broke my shit.. was trying to figure out the disc reading error on my tray, doesnt even play brand new games (states its too scratched). Best solution is to just get a Playstation.. I've had mines since day one and have yet to have any issues besides the black screen hiccups. This is my second xbox1 that broke on me (with the same disc reading error) and will not be getting another xbox ever again edit: FYI I stopped at 8:00
just had the same problem, i struggled a lot an got to the brink of breaking the shit out of the xbox xD, all you have to do is make sure you put it on starting with the front, be careful not to break any plastic teeth. try to look at how you took it apart, it's all the way around after all. Hope it helps someone :)
For the face plate area, I got the back and sides off the top then opened it wide and it popped off, then I turned it around and took the ribbon cable out from the bottom. Way easier
If you break off the ribbon you can just re - attach it to the little white box the ribbon i have is blue with a box like thing that had a smaller rectangular thing inside it just put the larger part around the white box and there should be a little slot on the side where the smaller part fits in once this fits in then just do put everything else back together like normal
cant you just pop out the top fan grill, its very dirty and the cleaning spray pressure spray doesnt completely get out the dust,so i was wondering how to remove only the top grill only
Am I the only person that had no problem with doing this??? I mean I just needed to know how to take the top and front panel off because my ribbon cable disconnected due to my Xbox falling off my shelf but I took it all off and put it all back together with 0 problems XD.... thanks for this vid helped me out so much
Thanks for the info. I was using ifixit's guide but it did not mention where the clips were or how the front panel would unclip if you opened it more. You seem to be missing screw C3 under the wifi module though.
Hey seeking some advice, I was taking mine apart because my Xbox wouldn’t stay on as I turned it on it kept turning itself off and I was gonna clean it out because I have tried everything to get it to work except taking it apart. And in the process of taking it apart now it won’t read my touch to turn it on. Nothing on the front interface works touch wise disc or power, any tips?

Buy the Advanced Warfare Xbox One, The game sucks but it comes with 1Terabyte and its a awesome design
Why do this when you can just plug in the back, an external 2tb portable hard drive with a short usb cable. Get some Velcro adhesive strips and put them on the bottom of the drive and the top of your xbox. Works great, plus then i can bring ONLY my hard drive with me when i go to a friends house (since there are two consoles) and I have everything with me. I have a hotspot (unlimited) from my phone so i can even take my drive and update on someones wifi network so I don't get throttled.
I want disassembly my X-box and use without superior case.
I use only frontal case (because the ON/OFF is here).
My X-box is very hot temperature during the gaming.
Amd I want disassembly.
I’m at the point where imma just leave my Xbox’s game drive disc open along with the whole Xbox.
Ive had to factory reset my xbo twice in the last 3 days, and I noticed its really dusty. Im glad this is easier to rip apart than the 360!!
I once had to factory reset 12 times in one day my xbox was broken somehow
do you also have a video on how to put it back again? :D hahaha ... “delicately”, i might add. :D
Just watch it in reverse, lol.
Brian Edlund you smart for that
Thanks dude! awesome video, that round thing on top is the speaker, and you also said that the front panel is connected. This can be removed but it is tricky, the plastic hook at the end of the ribbon slides back on and can be reattached
i’ve never opened mines and i’ve had it for 5 years and it’s crazy loud and i just wanna make it stop😂

thanks a lot! my xbox broke for no apparent reason and i had a disc stuck in it still. the manuel eject wasn’t working for whatever reason either so i just ripped it apart and grabbed my disc from the blu ray player. again, tysm!
Bah almost broke my shit.. was trying to figure out the disc reading error on my tray, doesnt even play brand new games (states its too scratched). Best solution is to just get a Playstation.. I've had mines since day one and have yet to have any issues besides the black screen hiccups. This is my second xbox1 that broke on me (with the same disc reading error) and will not be getting another xbox ever again
edit: FYI I stopped at 8:00
Lmfao “buy a PlayStation” great fam
Used the video to put my old Xbox back together thanks
how do I put it back together can't get the top cover on from the front
Diorio Vousden
just had the same problem, i struggled a lot an got to the brink of breaking the shit out of the xbox xD, all you have to do is make sure you put it on starting with the front, be careful not to break any plastic teeth. try to look at how you took it apart, it's all the way around after all. Hope it helps someone :)
Thanks, now I don’t know how to put it back together 👍😃
The Front of my xbox is sticking out cause it won't go back in lol
my faceplate refuses to snap back on. help anyone?

Hi
Same thing feels like the faceplate doesn't fit the console
I had to connect the face plate before the top then connect the top I know you've proud already figured it out but now but this is how I did it
For the face plate area, I got the back and sides off the top then opened it wide and it popped off, then I turned it around and took the ribbon cable out from the bottom. Way easier
The 360 slim was a bitch to get open, thank god the one isnt.
thanks, my xbox is completely broken because of you
What did he do?
Honestly it worked fine for me
@@clayton3505 me too
my xbox1 has t10 screw heads
Same here, apparently they're specialty tools that cannot be bought over the counter (if you're in Australia)
+Kaine Bishop, that's odd. can you order it on amaon or ebay?
If you break off the ribbon you can just re - attach it to the little white box the ribbon i have is blue with a box like thing that had a smaller rectangular thing inside it just put the larger part around the white box and there should be a little slot on the side where the smaller part fits in once this fits in then just do put everything else back together like normal
cant you just pop out the top fan grill, its very dirty and the cleaning spray pressure spray doesnt completely get out the dust,so i was wondering how to remove only the top grill only
The True Gamer same

Did you ever get the awnser
You can't. You have to take it apart like this
Am I the only person that had no problem with doing this??? I mean I just needed to know how to take the top and front panel off because my ribbon cable disconnected due to my Xbox falling off my shelf but I took it all off and put it all back together with 0 problems XD.... thanks for this vid helped me out so much
now I can't fucking close it correctly!
Loved the tutorial, my console works now
this tutorial scared me opening am xbox one 😵😨
Thank you a lot for this old video. Helped me out a lot.🍪
I did this and I forgot to unplug it then it exploded
OoF
Cool dude
Oof
Only REAL Skilled Profi Destructors can use a Screwdriver that Professional way dude ! O.M.G.
I took it apart, exactly how this guy did it, and now I can't get the face plate to close all the way. I seriously hope it's not fucked up after this.
Ashley Cowan same
Had the same trouble. Separating the faceplate from the lid, then installing the faceplate, then the lid did the trick.
Its very hard to line up right. Took me like 30 minutes to get back on, just be gentle with and work the hatches right
Thanks for the info. I was using ifixit's guide but it did not mention where the clips were or how the front panel would unclip if you opened it more. You seem to be missing screw C3 under the wifi module though.
oh and T9 was even a bit loose, so maybe T10?
you lost me at 1:23
Mr. 6 six6 he lost me at 0:1
Mr. 6 six6 its simple as 123 abc
Caden Savage so at ten seconds in?
Hey seeking some advice, I was taking mine apart because my Xbox wouldn’t stay on as I turned it on it kept turning itself off and I was gonna clean it out because I have tried everything to get it to work except taking it apart. And in the process of taking it apart now it won’t read my touch to turn it on. Nothing on the front interface works touch wise disc or power, any tips?
you sound like Clarence on cartoon network lol
Thank you for doing this video. This really helped me replace my fan
90 percent of the people here seem to be very young children. I'm just trying to rob some ram from the family xbox to put into my PC.
owo kibo so much wrong with this comment
@@ethanyoo9764 what do you mean?
@@MRL1ZARDZ RAM is soldered into the Xbox motherboard and will not work in a PC
@@AlexK-cr3fm Ah, well I never suceeded anyway. Didn't get to the ram.
I'm only 13. Done it fine tho🤷♂️🤣
Just fished out a debit card, a clothes tag, and a Disneyland ticket. Now I feel like an electrical engineer. Great success.
