if anyone is actually paying attention in here......this guy really knows his stuff. it would be a perfect world if everything were as informative and helpful as him
I agree
Yep
We need HD remake of this video!
Hi your video helped me take apart a Xbox 360 e system I cleaned fixed inspected refurbished repaired restored and sanitized I opened the disc drive I cleaned the top and bottom also the CD spindle and the laser the heat sink the fan I repasted my Xbox 360 e system and it works excellent I also did the 12 volt fan mod I clipped the blue wire my Xbox 360 e never overheats it stays nice and cool during game play
@@ronaldhenson9170 That's nice, too bad you did not watch some of my other video telling you how extremely bad that fan mod is for your system and I am not just talking about it being lowed as hell I am talking Damaging to the system bad. Seriously I hate when others tell me they love my videos then tell me they did shit to there system that I tell them not to do and tell everyone is extremely bad for your systems? I know you did not get any advice form any of my videos regarding a 12V Fan mod that is all Uneducated UA-cam garbage from criminals that pretend to be a repairman on UA-cam.
TheHGCGamersClub y’all pressed over none
@@yahirrr He speaking straight facts
@@SamuraiMedia907 No, he's triggered because someone chose to do something that he didn't like.
Thanks this helped a lot my Xbox 360 e had been broken for so long with the overheating error and this helped me clean the insides and now I can actually play good older games and I am very satisfied with how much this video helped
Legally speaking, merely opening a device doesn't void a warranty. It's called the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
Have been using your videos for a rather long time now. Most informative and helpful ones I have found. I refuse to open a new system without checking your page first.
Ugh. 3 different models of 360, all annoying to open. I miss the days of the original Xbox. 6 screws, take off the lid, boom, you're in.
ThePreciseClimber LOL Its not that bad.
+ThePreciseClimber Try replacing a water pump on a 98 straight 6 Jeep Grand Cherokee. You gotta remove the fan blades, and take damn near half the from end off. Pro tip: Wear gloves that are cut resistant.
They do it so it’s harder to upgrade it or fix it yourself. So you will buy the new Console or pay them to fix it
@Bryan Ogg Wow why so long? I can strip it to the bones in less than that. Oops sorry I have dun 10X thousands of them LOL
@@ClovisX dang do you still fix them?
I had the insufficient ventilation notification and flashing red ring occur on my Xbox and found this really helpful video. I carried out the steps to clean it and blew out the dust from the fan. I put it all back together and the same error occurred. I then adjusted the position of the Xbox and power block, making sure I kept the fan side vent clear (right hand side of Xbox, horizontal), it seems to be working ok now. Thanks for your help!
also i just realised this video is 4 years old and still helping people, thats awesome dude!! subbed.
make that 5
Make it 6
Thank you! I even got it back together with no pieces left over!
I've been needing this, I got an E model and for some reason they're really unpopular when it comes to everything: resale, repair, modeling. I mean, I can't help that I was born the same year it was released! Not to mention I had to get old enough to gain consciousness to realize I wanted an Xbox! 😂 Either way I'm way into retro collecting now and so I'm enjoying what I can scrounge up, but admittedly this thing has been around seven years and probably needs a good cleaning. (Some ancient hamster cage shavings need to be retrieved too 😬)
Funny story about this bad boy, he came with me through the 2016 floods here in Louisiana. Carried that bad boy and all my electronics in a waterproof cooler bag. Ds got stolen at the shelter and the iPad locked me out after a particular update (was bought used), but this still works. Just wish I had taken better care of some of my old discs, especially the boxes. But seriously this thing probably needs serious dusting. Planning to buy a region free set of Assassin's Creed Heritage collection for my Bday so this thing needs to be in top shape for the long hours ahead.
My advice for the back section that uses three prys is that on the far left where the power port is, using a flashlight you can actually pull the tab down from the side, unfortunately scratched the back pretty bad before I realized it was in clear shot, plan to get another original Xbox 360 when I get older because it has the actual retro style that most people know.
I've had one of these since brand new for a little over a year now and I never knew that you could access the hard drive that easily just by taking off a small piece of plastic
Your voice is Billy Bob Thornton, your skills & attention to detail are second to none. A we some video, thanks for posting. Listen up Kiddo's, this kind of teaching is priceless. I used to work in shops/jobsites/garages etc.for free when I was a kid to pickup nuggets like this from guys like this. Now its a UA-cam search. You pause/rewind? Sweet. Better than a backhand for asking the same question too many times.😁 you have a new sub&a thumb up sir
Tools Needed 33:35
Nice tutorial, man. I'd like to ask you. I've been dealing with some stuttering/frame drops during autosaving. Especially on newest games, MGSV, etc. Somebody reccomended open it up and clean it. Do you think it is the case? I've had it for over a year and the warranty is gone now. Never cleaned it before. Dust can really cause this stuttering? Thanks, keep it up, amigo. Greetings from Argentina.
Dust makes your game system run hotter and hotter over time and excessive heat can cause all kinds of problems including burning out chips, components, cracking of solder and all kinds of bad stuff. NOW will it fix your problem who knows? But the first thing I would do in my shop is clean it, so you should clean it and see what happens.
Thank you so much. It's more common to see thermal paste videos in Xbox 360 Slim than Xbox 360 E
Just finished cleaning mine for the first time since i purchased it brand new.. Needless to say it was very dusty ! Got no pets so hair wasn't an issue thank god ! Your video was awesome man so helpful" i keep all my consoles in excellent dust free condition and this was the system that i kept putting off the cleaning.. After watching your video i did the shit in an hour. Thanks you got a sub from me 👌
Chino Nitty Sir can I use a can of dust off to clean it out?
It would be better than nothing all you need to do is get the dust out from under the heat sink and clean up the motherboard just do not blow air in the disk drive.
i always come back to this video thanks man
Thanks so much! I pulled out my hard drive and couldnt get it back in.. this video helped! :-D
I just tried to unscrew the torx screws with a T8 but that was too small, got two screws out, hope I don't ruined the other ones. Only the A marked screws seem to be T8. I need to know which size the B and C marked ones are.
there are 2 sizes like I told you in the video T8 & T10
this really worked if anyone needs to open and clean Thier Xbox this is the video to watch
Had my Xbox E for 5 years and I've been getting aggravated from trying to watch a movie or play a game it'd just freeze the screen and have colored pixels everywhere. Finally opened it up for a good cleaning with a small air company meant for painting jewelry or whatever it is for. I use it for cleaning my keyboard and my computer tower every so often. Xbox got a good treatment. Hopefully it fixes it. Gets worse with all this hot weather and high humidity 🤣
Hey buddy I just want to say that your video was perfect it gave me everything I needed to do step by step to dismantle this older system to clean and put back together on 1st try with no issues thank you
I need help! My son has the original xbox one. We turned it off properly and waitied for shut down before unplugging before we went on vacation... i unplug all unnecessary things before i leave, we just got home today, plugged everything in, power supply light is on, but xbox will NOT turn on, please help! Mother is in the doghouse tonight lol
thank you so much for the tutorial it was super helpful and it let me clean up a childhood console 👍👍
Hi, great video,
I have a question, my 360e will not power up.
I haven't stripped it down yet as not sure on the problem.
I am getting an orange light on the power brick but the console is dead, so I bought a new brick on eBay and it's still the same.
Any ideas on what to look for!
Thanks for any ideas
i have same problem,did you know how to fix that?
Yes I know how to fix everything with this and all game systems shown on this channel but You should not be trying to fix it yourself because you will destroy your system trying to fix something that is not broken do to an uneducated UA-camr or a Guess, there are lots of reasons for your problem and without proper testing there is no way anyone can tell you your problem will be this or that.
Recommend a Qualified repairman with Electronics education, not a game store owner that watched the same videos you have.
@@ClovisX some of us cant afford expensive fixes
@@leahperry94 A qualified repairman will be a lot cheaper than buying a new system so don't even go there if you insist on trying to repair your own system using UA-cam videos you will destroy your system like 99% of the individuals that try do, because for every one symptom even if you have an error code that doesn't mean shit anyway there are 100's of reasons for the exact same symptoms. Example Not reading disks system says Open Tray that does not mean it is the disk drive that is broken but every youtube video out there will tell you to replace the laser and more often than not you waste your money
Okay, so what could be the most common cause of this?
Thanks so much man. I was looking at an article and it had a way harder method of opening the x box
Thanks for the tuto, Done and perfect working after the maintenance. Regards!
Hi, I have the red ring of death. I really need help. If you can help out, that would be awesome. Thank you
Thank you for this video. The best one to follow if you want to repaste your 360 correctly.
You can also use the jaws on a pair of 12” calipers instead of the custom tool to insert into the ends of the X bracket and pop it off. NOTE: something not entirely clear from the video is that you have to put the tool or calipers INTO the end of the X bracket in order to pop it off. It appeared to me that the tool was being inserted UNDER the X bracket and that is not correct and I accidentally damaged my motherboard as a result.
Okay let me get this straight, You F'up your system then give advice as if you know shit about how to do this??????? I show this video to show you how to not damage the X-Clamp using something as stupid as a pair of 12" calipers or screwdrivers and the like because you need that X-Clamp to work properly and using improper tools only damages them even if you don't understand how because you are uneducated.
Did everything like showed, but red light still flashes 10 times and then shut down when i press pwr button
Is your xbox fixed now?
Hey man nice vid, opened my E with no problem
Maybe adjust the lighting for all future vids, the glare when holding the console at certain angles makes it really hard to see what is being done. Other than that, VERY informative. TYVM.
16:53 I tried using a fork and it wouldn't open
Edit: I did all that work for nothing, I couldn't get that dang "X clamp" off and now I just have a pile of overheating junk and I cannot do anything about it because I can't get into the cpu area to re apply paste :(
I just got a 360 E that randomly ejects/closes the tray. I've repasted and cleaned everything, nothings broken. Would a bad ribbon cable cause that? Pressing the eject button on the circuit board also does nothing, but the power button works fine.
Your problem is likely the ribbon but can just as easily be the RF Board there are also other problems inside the disk drive that can cause the ejecting problums but you will need to replace one or both of the other and get it working properly to find out if there is 2 problems rather than 1
That oof at the beginning
I have done exactly what you have done, I used arctic 4 thermal paste but the console still says lack of ventilation and shuts down. Is there another problem that it could be? It's a Xbox 360 e blue limited edition 500GB console.
retrostansolo same as mine i think if the same thing happens something is wrong with the xbox
more like both of you do not know what you are doing and should take it to a qualifed repair shop before you destroy your game systems.
There are lots of reasons It could overheat, you may have damaged the X-clamps removing them or your not tightening the T8's all the way is the 2 most likly How knows? I cant check out your system from where I am.
My Xbox 360 e that I bought a year and a half ago... it runs rather warm but not hot and has never overheated but it has always had a buzzing sound from the fan, do you know if it could be just dust. Or replace the fan that I could get
I have a problem with my HDMI port not working and also the jack for the component cable seems loose ( cord has to have slight pressure for it to read and send signal to the tv. do you have any suggestions on how I could go about fixing one or both video outputs. thanks in advance
Yes i do, unless you have a lot of experience or have gone to school I would recommend you take yours system to a Qualified repair shop or you will do noting more than waste your time and force yourself to buy a new game system.
@@ClovisX i have the error code 0023
Thank you so much.. I was able to just follow you along and my console is as good as new
hi thank you for your video it was very informative and we were able to do what you did.
We cleaned and did the repast with the arctic silver 5 you suggested. I turned the console on and played for a few minutes and it shut down again. I waited and turned it back on and play a game for a long time. I had to stop playing, but it did not shut down that time. This morning I played and it shut down again after a few minutes. I am frustrated. I don't know what to do at this point. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks
That throat clear at the beginning sounded like a cartoon bonk
he is the 1st person besides myself I have seen put the X-clamp back on. I can not stand people using screws in place of clamp. Still doesn't solve my issue though.
That is because I actually went to school for component level electronics and a whole lot more and all of them other UA-cam Channels are UA-cam Educated Fakes that rip off kids and teach Death to game systems.
Well let me ask your opinion/ thoughts on my issues in that case since I am still fairly new at this. I have fixed "red ring" in both 360 and 360 Slim before but this weekend I had one of each I can't seem to get working. The slim has red ring and I've done everything as far as removing heat sync and putting artic silver down and still nothing....where should I look next for issue?
On the regular 360 it was having a hard time reading any disc so took apart and very carefully cleaned disc tray/ cd drive....still says I need to put game in a 360 in order to play it....next direction I should look?
Both were extremely dirty inside, the dirtiest I've seen so far.
@@renofixit2814 My opinion is that you should take your system to someone that actually went to school for component level electronics see if I am close to you www.clovisxbox360repair.com/contact.html
You will only destroy your system or succeed in removing any possible lasting repair trying to fix stuff on suggestions of what may or may not be wrong with your system
Thank you so much for posting I followed step by step!
This is fun step by step just like legos but adult version !
thank very much my I had stickers on the xbox and I had to take them off before I sold the xbox but when I peeled it off it left a sticky residue and it would not come off so I had to take the cover of so thank you for showing me properly how to take it off.
thx man this helped me alot got rid of red rings again THX
+Double You Excuse me, this is my channel and I do not allow that kind of talk on this channel, I do not care what your problem is with this person
+Double You from What I can see there is no reason for you to post this comment. I will remove it but know I will ban you for this if it continues.
that was my younger brother
Thanks so much for the video. Really helpful. God bless you.☺
striaght forward and on point very helpful
Whenever I put in game disc like COD to play my Xbox gets louder than usual
You helped me alot, thank you very much!
Arctic MX-4 last for about 7-8 years, and also have slightly better thermal performances than Arctic Silver 5.
Arctic Silver 5 will last for 20+ years and outperforms Arctic MX-4 after only 2 months by a wide margin
After cleaning and repasting x box started working but it stopped reading disk... Shows only open tray... Please any suggestions.
In my quest to try to make my Xbox 360 (model E) turn ON again... I think it wouldn't hurt to check the thermal paste while I'm at it.
The PSU is working. I checked it with a voltmeter and the light turned green... So my problem is the console itself. Somewhere, the circuit is broken.
I loved your video! I do have a question; if the disc drawer/shelf isn't wanting to close, how would I fix that? My son bumped the drawer pretty good while changing out games. You can hear it trying to work and nothing rattles or sounds broken so I'm pretty sure he just knocked it off track but you were pretty insistent about not opening the drive...
He knocked the tray off track it must be very carefully removed then the calibration of the drive must be set to accept the tray. If the tray is not damaged once it is installed properly it will work fine. I charge $20 if you're local to me [Clovis, CA.] to remove and reinstall the tray. if you're not local, I suggest you find a repair shop near and not try this yourself as most that try will brake the drive trying remove it or install it making a replacement of the hole drive required.
Just got an xbox 360 E fron a relative but everytime i play a game it makes a buzzing sound. I used canned air and that didnt help so i might take it apart.
Question should I repaste my 360 slim? I have had no heating problems with it, I got it used, and have had it since early 2012, many nights of halo 4 on it. Only problems i've had have been with my controller, which works fine when plugged in, but likes to turn off when it's shaken, It has been dropped a few times on accident. And my copy of reach wouldn't read, but after some searching, I've found out that Reach discs have had that problem since day one, something inside the coding or something (Another example of Bungie trying to sink Halo). It's the black glossy model, I believe it's the 250GB, since it was originally sold with the Kinect sensor.
+Jmeon4eva Thermal paste should be replaced no less than every 6 years providing the box has not been running very hot do to dust, if when you last or first time you cleaned it, it was packed with dust then yes it could not hurt to have it replaced as long as the person knows what he or she is doing and is not going to bolt it or try over heating it thinking that is what they are suppose to do after a repast, When it is not.
okay thanks.
How much cooler will the unit actually run by doing this? and is it worth the time then by just blowing it out with compressed air?
Thank U so much!!!!! New subscriber!!! 😍😍
I followed this in order to clean my fan on my Xbox 360 E because it kept overheating and now it says there are no storage devices found and I don’t have any of my accounts or anything. It also keeps asking for an update but since it doesn’t detect my hdd I can’t update it. Any help?
you likely unplugged the hard drive cable by accident or put them on the board wrong look at them pose the video at 13:23 to see if your cables match the ones in your system.
@@ClovisX Turns out I just didn’t push the hard drive in all the way 😂 so make sure you hear a *click* sound before you get worried like I did
Thanks for the tutorial, can I ask though is it worth buying an exhaust fan for the Xbox 360 E to prevent heat desoldering the motherboard?
No.
I followed the instructions in the vidoe to repair the disk drive to my xbox 360e i had no issues getting evetything apart and back together. I went to go check to see if what i did had worked and now the xbox wont turn on..... Do you have any advice or anything come to mind that i did wrong? I know your video says not to open disk drive but i had to fix an issue where it wouldnt read games because the drive isnt moveing into readin position
Sir my Xbox 360 suddenly failed to connect with TV or PC Monitor by both AV cable and HDMI cable. Though we have been playing it by HDMI cable for 1 year but one day suddenly
it did not work. Though the HDMI cable was good we bought another one and also bought a AV cable but it didn't work. We also noticed that the light of Xbox 360 power button was not as bright as it was before. We tried to connect it with many TVs and PC monitors but we couldn't succeed at all. What do we do now? What is the problem with our Xbox 360? Please help us 😔😔
You opened my ears
Hello, I did it all but after that the Xbox is not starting what should I do or check?
Hey man great video, I have a problem, I was cleaning the dust and opened the xbox and the power supply brick and I put them all together again but now the xbox won't turn on, the light goes red and that's it, everything wasput back together like it was before, I don't understand what I did wrong or what could've happened, please just give me some insight and your opinion on what could have happened, I'm desperate right now and I don't know if I fucked my console up.
you likely did not put it back together correctly and I never told anyone to open the PSU they can easily be damaged and burn down your house killing everyone in it, I would recommend you take it to a qualifed shop or at very least if you insist actually follow the directions in the video so it will work.
Thanks. You were a big help. :D
What should I do if My Xbox 360 E, Won't let me play games, It reads a game but then it says to "open tray" plzz help
How would I check if the laser for the disc tray is dirty there my friend?
I'm dying of laughter when I Opened the vid
Hi TheHGCGamersClub.
What to do when we clean, repast and even so the solid red light continue? I did the step by step exactly as you showed in this video but no success. When I turn on the button immediately get red and the fan starts to spin for 3 seconds and then stop. Although my Xbox 360 E is a little bit old (2013) it is pretty lightly used. It must have been used 10 times or less in this meanwhile... Really don't understand why got this problem. I would like to make it works again for the kids to play. I appreciate if you can give me some tip. Thanks!
Cleaning is preventative maintenance, not a repair it is to avoid red lights and other problems before they happen. Yes, Cleaning it will fix overheating problems and every once in a great while a red light eschews like you just discribed, but normally once you get red lights it is way too late to clean because something has failed and needs to be repaired or replaced thanks to the heat. With a system that is very lightly used as you have described your problem will be one that you will not be able to do at home and I will not be able to talk you through doing anything, you need to take it to a qualified repair shop to have it repaired or buy a new system.
Great info for someone with basic electronic skill to learn how to do this. Very well explained!
Just to say to anyone that try this if you are not good at this kind of stuff do not try this take it to a qualified repair shop
The first time I took mine apart I didn’t put the c1 and b5 screws back in I just came back and put them both in b5 took me a while to find
would the cause of the Xbox not turn on because it is dirty?
I have a blue xbox 360 elite the power brick light is orange but when I press the power button the light comes on and turns red and there's no sounds or anything and it's simply won't turn on
Thanks bro. Another video tell me I more or less snap the cover of the disc player. XD Thank you for show me how not to kill my Xbox.
6:18 what screwdriver is that
Followed to a T. And still nothing I get the power to come on, the fan tries to kick in but then stops, after looking at the front on off eject and sync resistors I noted it kept flickering very fast red, over the D1? No idea what this means. I can very occasionally get it to the sign in screen but then it shuts down immediately. I can not figure where the failure is? Tried swapping power bricks, thermal paste, its spotlessly clean. I'm lost?
Take it to a qualified repairman one that actually went to school for component level electronics
Hi and thanks for your help on this. One thing I am not sure about is that you refer to taking out the 6 black long screws, but there are only 5, and following the video you only remove 5?
just seeing who is paying attention LOL there are only 5 Long Screws that need to be removed.
Thanks for that! Cleaned and I'm now on to the repasting..
I Do not recommend you Do that Unless it is still overheating! Do not replace the thermal paste Unless it is necessary, Seriously it is fine and will be for up to 5 years or more easily Even With the Partially Dried Assembly line thermal paste providing it is not running super hot do to dust build up baking it Dry.
On the 2nd part of taking the main cover off.... I cant get the tabs open and I destroyed the exterior.....
I can't open my Xbox 360 what tools you used to open the Xbox back
Thanks for your video sir! After 2 years of my own warranty will gone I will do every single step from the video. Again thanks! Now I need to save your link. With all due respect I need to ask you what do you mean by repasting, what to repast (it's like repasting processors from personal computers, AMD processors) ? Sorry, first time using XBOX360 E.
You should only be cleaning, repasting is more advanced and not recommended for home DIY because most damage stuff trying.
Ok Thanks!
Thx, my xbox is so f**** loud. I have to clean it but I am not sure if I won’t mess it up 😂
My power supply is fully functional, but my 360 e decided not to turn on today. I unplugged it from the box, and then the extension cord and decided to go right into a wall outlet and back into the box. Light stays on solid orange. No blinking. Two times out of probably 50, the power button light flickered on, but not longer than a second. There haven't been any power surges or lightning strikes etc. It just sits on the tv stand. Any thoughts as to the issue? I'm sure repasting isn't the problem, but just inquiring for your expertise.
It can still be the power supply regardless of the light, don't buy one borrow one form a friend and try it.
My fan doesn't spin and I have to put a back a fan on top of it or it will over heat and shut down how do I fix this problem?
HELP! I opened it and i my ribbon cable snapped, what do i do? can i fix it? or put it back together?
+Nexen Take it to a qualified repair shop not everyone is able to do this and by your comment you are one of them that should not have tried.
I've got a 360 E and what happens is i can play for about 5 min and then the screen goes grey and the Xbox shuts off...im guessing its got something to do with the GPU heating up too fast ??
do you recommend a cleaning and repasting for this issue ?
Thanks.
Start with cleaning if that does not work then and only then should you attempt to replace the thermal paste. Word of caution I have seen grown men and all manner of kids destroy their system trying to replace thermal paste so I would recommend finding a qualified shop to do that part.
hi, great video, just wanted to ask your opinion on repasting. I have cleaned the 360 and I still have spare arctic silver 5 but my 360 is working fine and I just cleaned it because of 2 years use, some might say if it's not broken than why, but arctic silver is better and I might prevent future heating problems. what's you're opinion on repasting?
+MGrider You cleaned it and it is working good, so I would say that unless your fans are running lowered than normal? You should not renew the Thermal paste, it can last for 5+ years if it does not get baked dry from over heating do to dust or use, so if your box is not running lowed then it is not dry and you do not need to re-paste the box, I do not know how skilled you are and taking apart electronics or game systems to that level, but you should know that it can be hazardous to your game system even if you are use to opening them every day, anything can go wrong, and you could wind up having to buy a new box before you are ready or even able to.

Thanks a bunch mate, really helpful
How can I check cpu temperature to make sure I repasted correctly?
this really helped me out thanks dude! ill be doing a stream where i clean out and repaste my xbox. I'd like to reference your video, is this ok?
Yes
Yes, you can let me know when if I have time I will join in.
hey will thermo past most likely fix my problem? i just got ripped off with my xbox 360 slim came with a red light... i am very good with pc / built em ect, just am curoius if the 360 is made the same way? i have it apart n it looks about the same, ps ur videos are awsome!
Once you get a red light or a system that is throwing an error it is normally too late for a cleaning or replacing the thermal paste, it needs a repair.
But who knows you might get lucky?
Thanks man this really helped a ton!
How often should one change the thermal paste on the e? I have mine for about 5 years now.
if it has been kept clean it can last up to 10 years before it should be changed but there are other factors to consider but the best way to know is the fan if it is running louder than normal then it is likely time to clean it or if it is clean then renew/change the thermal paste but I would not recommend you do that, most of you will only damage the system 99.9% of the UA-cam videos showing you how do not give you the proper information you need to know in order to remove the X-clamp without damaging it and your system let alone how to put the X-clamp back on the right way to prevent it from running hot and killing its self over time.
Could doing this remove coil whine noise?
Sir can I use a can of dust off to clean it out?
as of 2018 they can no longer void you for a broken seal
I know this is a bit late, but recently my Xbox 360 E has been having a "Ventilation Error" I repositioned it so it could get better ventilation and everything yet the issue still persists. I believe there must be dust build up but I don't know. Do you have an easy fix?
