Restoration & Repair of broken Xbox 360 and Fix The Red Ring of Death - ASMR

Restoring the Original Xbox 360 Controller
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In this video, I repair an Xbox 360 that suffers from the infamous Red Ring of Death (RROD). While this is a well-documented issue I was surprised at the lack of quality repair tutorials targeting DIYers. Most "reflow" videos are silly hacks (like wrapping your Xbox 360 in a towel) and even tutorials that suggest using a heat gun leaves a lot to be desired. For example, I didn't

I think there can be a version of an at-home RROD repair that uses simple tools that anyone can follow, resulting in a permanent fix.

The chips can be damaged by heat also so it's important to move the heat gun around. three inches away from the board the constant motion at this distance isn't going to melt anything on this large of a surface area.
You should avoid the capacitors so that they don't get any direct heat.
After the initial warm-up, I applied flux which will help the reflow of the solder joints.

Unfortunately, I did not install the CPU heat sink correctly, I realized this mistake later after I finished the video so I corrected it after the video

This video shows you everything you need to know about taking apart your Xbox 360. If you need to replace the fan or the disk drive this video will show you how to get inside and disassemble your system. Since this system isn't the newest on the market anymore, it's cheaper to replace the parts yourself than it is to send them in for repairs.

I love seeing these consoles get another chance at life. It warms my heart

[vinnyhughes]

Simply amazing video! You made me think of all the old technology I threw away that could've been saved with simple tricks. Thank you for your work!

[frankiepoindexter]

The part where you fixed the cracked case was outstanding work. Great job.

[dibrandembabadem]

Great work!You did a good job on fixing the ring of death!You are a true life console saviour!👍👍👍

You did not install the CPU heat sink incorrectly. Compare 6:59 with 15:30 in the video and you will see the issue. It won't cool correctly with the heat sink 90 degrees off.

Just a tip, never spread your thermal paste out like that. If this Xbox is actually used it will almost for sure overheat due to doing that none the less still great you got it working

[Ledeluz]

I was really amazed on how you restored the xbox 360 casing. Didn't regret subscribing to your channel!

I'm super happy for you that you managed to fix the rrod, but what you did is only a temporary fix. Only real way is to replace the solder balls under the cpu/gpu with lead solder

[leninjagames]

ainda quero comprar um desses tive muitos bons momentos cara seu trabalho e muito foda parabéns pelo cuidado e carinho que vc tem com cada componente dessas obras primas 👏👏👏👏👏

[jecamati]

Brutal me encanto la restauración y más con el reto al tener una de las partes tan partida. Brutal espero que sigas así cada vez trayendo nuevos retos, es un deleite ver un video así. 💪🏼👍🏻👌🏻

Es tan satisfactorio ver este tipo de videos no solo veo por ver si no también aprendo
Gracias!

I recently repaired one of these, and I swear, I never want to take one apart again in my life! All those plastic clips were an absolute nightmare! It works, but the clips have gone for a Burton lol.

Nunca me dejaran de gustar estos videos tuyos, son muy entretenidos.

The part where you fixed the case was amazing. Congrats for great job

This is ASMR. Actual repair begins right before 10 minutes for those that were recommended this video expecting someone to explain what they're doing

[joelmora]

I'm glad you didn't spray paint the exterior of the console you restored it the right way good job

[Doltyles]

Gracias a ti pude arreglar mi xbox no sabia como mis padres no me ayudaron pero tu fuiste mi salvación

[Dasiliy]

Yep, just another piece of art! Great work!

[LeHamsterRuso]

Nice video, but check the min 15: You're putting bad the heatsink! You must rotate it 90º, check with the video at min 6:40. In that position (min 15) you're blocking the air flow

Awesome restoration and incredible transformation, the early xbox 360 was a great if troublesome. I loved mine. ❤
