- Cleaning your Xbox prolongs the life of it, especially the model we talk about today. I removed the dust in a previous video I did on my Xbox One, hence why it's not so dusty in this video.

This video will show you how to put the top case and ribbon on easier - czcams.com/users/shortsIENazKAj5mM?feature=share đđ
If you do break that little wire you said at the beginning can you get it fixed
@@Cmrice-qe9oq yes there are replacements you can find online, funny enough I just broke my ribbon too
Thank you for this 2nd little video even though I caught it after fighting with it the other way. I couldnât fit my big hands so I got my wife to help me with her little hands. But now Iâll know for the next time. Lol
@@robertw31968 haha you're welcome dude. No worries at all :)
@@JoeyDoesTech hey mate for the cover disconnection of the xbox one can I do it with a thin knife or not before I start cleaning it up? Or can I able to use a plastic spatula if possible?
This helped so much I havenât cleaned my Xbox in 6 years
Glad I could help :)
Me to XD
Now my Xbox it broken đ
@@vorce_ios8833 damn you did it wrong đ
@@vorce_ios8833 Did you feel like you done something wrong at any part? Slowly go back through the process and be extra careful :)
dude you were so right about that final case and that clip on the corner omg almost regretted d whole process because of it
It's horrendous right Steely? Great satisfaction after doing it though. Well in mate for getting it done :) đ
The best way to do it is to insert at like a 45 degree angle to put all the hinges together and then force it in on the right side opposite of the side you took the plastic cover off and it should just sit in place in the back hinges very easily. Took me a while toođbut finally figured it out
Gonna sell me broken xbox I have to keep resetting it. The thing is I have it on with music Just so I can sleep with the loons around me. I might try take apart or just sell to a store who can always fix it
Im doing this simply cause I think the first time I didn't get it set back properly and the case was blocking the disk drive
@@rickybobbyjr581d2 if the vid helped drop a like cuz it sure did for me, my system kept shutting down because it was protecting itself from overheating and it had good reason to, all the vents were clogged with dirt to the point where I could just tear like a banana peel
And this is why I love CZcams. People like you making videos like this makes things possible for the average people like me and so many others able to do things like this on our own. The only problem I struggled with, was that alignment in that first corner when putting the lid back on. Man, that was a struggle for me. Lol everything else went smooth. Thanks again.
Yeah only took me 10mins of doing it wrong then got it straight away afterwards
I feel like the "annoying part" should have had a lot more attention/detail to it
You're 100% right Hypno, and I'm sorry I didn't detail it enough. The blue ribbon cable should of had better angles, as well as putting the case back on. There is a pinned comment on this video of how to put the case back on ALOT easier than the way I've explained.
Hope the rest of it wasn't too bad! I have learned đđ
Hear hear, it was exactly as he said though (you'll have to give it a couple of goes before getting here right). I was losing my cool đ€Šđ»ââïž
when you put it back together, its actually WAAAAY easier if you separate the front and top cover, connect the top first, then the front
Thanks man, canât express how much easier that was with your advice
how are u supposed to do this
@@bryanbejerano3799 there are little locks holding the front and top cover together, just pop it and separate them
đ
Man, I was struggling for half an hour until I thought about checking the coms. Followed your tip and it didn't even take me a minute. Thank you very much!

Thanks for watching!
I've now started to take faulty consoles from Ebay and I'm trying to fix them. Check out one of those videos here: czcams.com/video/a_KmfwOXSdQ/video.html
hey, ive found its much easier to take the power button ribbon cable out from under, meaning you lift it over the xbox, it makes it so you can undo the clip easier, ive also found that its much easier to put he shell back on if you dethatch the clips of the front panel from the top of the shell, you need to put mid tension and lift the clips up until all of them are undone then you can slide the front panel off, when you want to put the xbox back together, you put the ribbon cable in, put the front panel onto the xbox, then put the top panel on and it should clip into the front panel any way you do it, and its much easier than having to navigate the entire top shell and front panel while being mindful of the ribbon cable.
@@raycert07 Perfect, thanks for the tips Ray! Was this the first time you've done it yourself?
@@JoeyDoesTech i first took mine apart about 2 weeks ago, when my xbox one stopped working properly and i took it apart to investigate the inside, i was never able to fix it, i dont have any canned air atm, but i think its due to all of the yellow cigarette smoke dust inside. i got another one if that one never starts working again, so its pretty much a side project. i got a picture of how dusty:

I almost got the top completely off & I got scared & put it back together , lol. I donât wanna ruin it or my boyfriends gonna kill meeee đđđ
Did you manage to get it sorted? đ
If you havenât done it Iâd try it. Heâd love it if you did it right
@@ajr9756 Iâm struggling to even put the ribbon cable back together
@@oli2splashy I took mine apart again made sure the ribbon cable and other cables were attached properly and the eject button is working correctly now. Keep at it you'll get it, putting the case back together was annoying too so you have that to look forward to lol
Are you the viral TikTok? Of it
By some miracle it fit together so well I was confused that anyone would have difficulty. Unfortunately it didn't solve my particular issue but the cleaning was fun enough. Had to restrain myself from cleaning my brother's right away and will do so tomorrow. Probably with the aid of this very video! Great job on the video and I hope you have a lovely day.
Aye thankyou so much! Really appreciate the kind words. At least like you said, you now get practice doing it.
First time Iâm internally cleaning my Xbox since 2013 (itâs been 10 years as of now đ ). Thank you for this straight to the point guide!
Same dude bout made a whole dog with all the dust
Me: peacefuly cleaning my xbox and putting in the screws
*Putting on the case*
Me: why do I hear boss music?
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
I don't get it
@@FIREB4II it's very difficult to put the case back on
Mine went smoothly. Very insightful and no complications other than that one corner clip was indeed tricky to get in place. Over all I like how quickly and easily your video walked me through. Nothing more annoying than a 30 minute video on something that can be done in about 5/10 minutes tops.
Good job man. Glad you found the video helpful đ
That corner clip will be the end of me.
I cut off the clip I couldnât take it :vvvvvv
Well the coner clip has now made me have no xbox
Thank you so much, cleaned my partners Xbox that hasnât been cleaned in 8 years⊠safe to say it needed it. Putting the lid back on almost defeated me but I got there in the end. The click when it goes back on is SOMETHING ELSEđ
The amount of stress I got from doing this, but still managed to do it all because of ur amazing tutorial. Makes me want to give u the biggest hug. Thank you so much!!!!
Ah that makes me smile Patrick! Glad it made sense and great job on doing it :)
For people who are struggling to put the top shell back on at the end, please click on this video and skip to around the 5 minute mark. Sorry that my explanation/example wasn't that good, I'll work on this next time! đđ (PLEASE LIKE THIS COMMENT SO PEOPLE CAN SEE)

Holy, this is so much easier... thankyou bro đđ
thanks. I got it on in a second
Had no idea about that clip on the corner. I watched so many other videos and no one explained that. Thanks man. Life savor.
You're more than welcome :)
Just finished putting my Xbox back together. That one clip was a huge pain in the butt but it's done.
Good job man đ
How did u do it i cant
@@carminenicholles1762 same
@@carminenicholles1762 did u do it tho
@@minutes-vv3ov lol
FYI, The front side can be removed easily from the inside after you detach the rear and top panel before u remove the ribbon so you can easily clip it back on when you reassemble it without the hassle .
Certified legend.
Show instead of tell homie or say nothing at all.
This helped so much wow thank you!
You lift up all of the upper, thin things and then you can push the lower thick things out and then the front can come right off.
Totally removes the rage from this entire thing.
â@@thehuntressdanni2972 much easier than the way joey explained it
For anyone who doesn't have a proper prying tool....
Here's some potential alternatives that you might have laying around your house that can also likely do the job.
A fingernail kit: the metal tool that cleans underneath your nails.
The spatula from a Cricut tool set.
***(So long as you make sure that it doesn't bend or damage the spatula when prying as it is only intended to lift lightweight vinyl and cardstock.
Not gaming console parts lol)***
A flat part of a metal hairclip
The top metal piece on nail clippers that flips around. (So long as it's thin enough to get in between the pieces)
A thin butter knife.
For the makeup people...
If you've got a tarte lash applicator tool, or similar, this will possibly do the trick.
Just be careful you don't scratch the finish on your lash applicator in the process.
A sturdy set of brow tweezers might work, too.
Great comment, thankyou.
Hardest part was putting the top lid back on took me bout 30 mins smh
Agreed 100%. Did you follow the top comment here?
yeah I accidentally put the back on first and now I'm stuck đ
Thank you so much! I just successfully cleaned out my Xbox one original and youâre right the hardest part was aligning and snapping the plastic back together but after I realized you had the same issue I figured it out. Thank you again runs smooth and clean again đ§âđ§đ
You're welcome :)
Bro I canât get the triangle shape thing from 2:20 the time in the video to move bro having a hard time
If anyone has issues with disc's not going in or ejecting, even after using the manual eject button, I had those exact issues. I took the Xbox apart and pulled the disc drive out, pulled the cover off the disc drive and found that the pulley system that actually turns to pull the disc in was loose. The belt on one of the pulleys was loose and I realized the pulley itself had popped out of its proper location. I pushed it back in place with a flat head, the belt tightened and I reassembled the Xbox, and now the disc drive works fine.
Thanks for sharing your experience Graham, hopefully that helps other people :)
Great guide! So, I know you asked to post about this in the comments.... So, I found a much easier way to attach the top cover during the final reassembly. I removed the face plate from the top cover. This made it so much easier to attach the ribbon cable. I attached the face plate to the console, pulled the face plate away just a bit and attached the top cover to the face plate and worked from front to back of the console. Much easier. Anyways, great video!! Hope this helps!
THIS. DO THIS!
I actually got this all on my first try! Took an hour and a half to finish but we did it! Thank you so much for this video, blessđ
Yooo good job my guy. Thankyou for the kind words đđ
Thanks man! had it since she came out back in 2013 fit for itâs first clean
Glad I could help Brendon :)
How much force do you need to close the part where you need to clip over the vent bcs I've been trying for quite a bit and bothing
It's one of the hardest parts. You won't need to put TOO much force as most of it is technique. You want to try your best to push the case up and over rather than just straight force. Does that make sense? Let me know how you get on!
push on it at a angle
I legit got so mad that it wasnât going on so I just punched it and it clicked onđ
I was pretty nervous to even take the thing apart. But your video made a huge difference! Thank you, sir.
Thank you so much, my xbox had been shutting off recently and I didnt know if it was the power supply or if there was dust. Helped out a lot đđœđ
You are more than welcome. Thankyou for choosing to watching my video đđđđ
Thank YOU. Was definitely intimidated at first but your video really helped make it simple.
You're welcome đ
If youâre having trouble putting the shell back on watch the short in his pinned comment. I almost broke my xbox because the way he showed us in the original video is 40x harder.
Also thank you for the video, as long as you make your way to the short itâs an amazing explanation.
Thanks Garrett :) itâs a shame I found it out after the video otherwise this video would have been fine đ
Thanks man, almost did the same that was terrible
I cleaned my xbox and its 2021. it was my first time cleaning my xbox since i got it and all i can say is there was 8 years worth of dust in the vents and all holes. I was pretty shocked and i just finished cleaning it and now it doesnt sound like its about to take off everytime i play something thanks man!
You are more than welcome Shibe! Thankyou for trusting the video đđ
@@JoeyDoesTech yeah no problem! Everything is well explained and warnings (I wouldâve pulled the ribbon cable off) are well put out. Keep up the good work man!
@@ghostlyshiba8944 Thankyou! I appreciate the kind words :)
thank you so much for this!! I used your guide and cleaned my xbox and bow it's back together working better AND quieter! great tutorial!
You're welcome! Thankyou for the kind words đ
When its gets to about a about a 45 degree angle, pull it slightly towards the back, slowly and firmly. Its going over something in the corner he mentions.The whole things just suddenly sits right.you will see bending and a perhaps be a bit concerned like I was when you see the plastic looking so unnaturally moved about. Thanks for the videođđŒ
This fucking comment right here. Life and time saver. I was struggling so much
When putting Xbox back together an easier way to do it is that there are clips at top front of case you can separate the case into 2 pieces should make it easy to connect.
Ight
Thanks for the video. I was unable to get the shell back on perfect. Then again, this wasn't a professional job where presentation matters. As long as it's clean and snap on well enough. My original Xbox Day One thanks you! 8 years now, and finally clean.
This video was a life saver omg. I followed a different video to clean it but they didn't show putting it back together. I didn't think it'd be that hard, just everything backwards, until I couldn't for the life of me clip the top piece back on. I was convinced I messed something up until this vid showing the clip on the corner and how difficult it is
Glad it helped :)
Gonna be honest I palmed my Xbox to close it more times than I would have liked to
When your putting the final shell on thereâs a much easier way if you look under the top shell thereâs a bunch clips holding the top and front shell together. Unclip tham and the front should come free from the top then put the front shell on first and the top second. Hope this helps
There's alot of people commentating this, and I might just need to upload a clip of me trying it as it seems REALLY useful! Thankyou for the heads up :)
Yoooooo dude your a freakinnnn life saver I spent like 1 hour and a half trying to get it on and looked in the comments and saw this thanksssss so muchhh bro

How refreshing, second video on how to clean an xbox and both were Brits! Don't have a 17 year old yank telling me to smash the subscribe button, many thanks bud
Thankyou for watching dude :) Hopefully it went okay! đđ
My xbox refused to play any disc, this helped me so much to clean it for the first time since 2016 when I bought it. After the clean it is working 100% again. Thank you so much.
Thanks for this, a really helpful, straightforward, no waffle tutorial, nice one.
Good show, got it back together with a bit of finagling on the 1st shot!
Good stuff Brandon :)
Havenât cleaned this in 7 years ! Itâs crazy to think about but Iâm about to clean it out
How did it go David?
Does it work better
Finally got to clean my xbox after having it for almost 10 years. Nailed putting the puzzle back together.
Great job :)
Excellent video! Everything I needed to know. Thanks a lot! Looking forward to viewing your other videos.
Thankyou Chris! Glad you enjoyed đ
Heres a little tip for putting back the final case of the console: Remove the clips on the top of the case and put on the upper part on the Xbox first.
Then you can connect the blue cable thing much easier and put it back together.
Agreed :)
Im so pissed i didny see this earlier omfg i just spent 30 minutes doing that fucking stupid ribbon and prob broke ot
The scariest part for me was the ribbon cable, but ty itâs working fine
Was ur xbox not working at all?? Or u just cleaned it for fun??
@@yOGlo Mine was functional, but it was loud, stuttered ALOT, and it was just kind of starting to show its age.
@@wowzeree6789 oh mine overheated n turned off n won't come back on... I just bought a used series x for 570$ bcuz I couldnt fix xbox 1 even tho I followed this tutorial oh well thats thuh way she goes
Hi Joey, I followed this tutorial on an Xbox one friend asked me to repair. Glad to say it all went well, and videos coming soon.
I know you have done more Xbox repairs since filming this, but i had to say about putting it back together.
You said about the top panel that i wouldn't do it first time. well, i found that removing the front panel made it easier to replace the ribbon cable, plus the whole top went on first time.
Great video as always.
Ah good stuff pal! Yes if you look at the top comment and link in description it shows a method WAY easier! I only learned about it after doing the video unfortunately đ
@@JoeyDoesTech great minds think alike
Thank you so much that was the easiest repair video I have ever seen and I did it perfectly the first time
You're more than welcome :)
Iâm scared to clean mine
I was so scared to open this one! I already scratched it from the video before which is why it was a bit easier to do it this time round. All I can say is just make sure you watch enough videos until you feel confident enough to do it :)
For me I didn't play my Xbox One that much so it wasn't a huge deal to me, but can see why it would be such a big deal to someone who plays on it a lot! Best of luck, let me know how it goes when you get round to it :)
Thanks for watching!
Nice photo lol
Same cause I donât wanna break my xbox
Thank you so much ive never cleaned it and u explained it really well
Glad I could I help! Thankyou for the feedback :)
Do you own a PS4 and would you like to see one for that? :)
Very helpful, and I'm glad I watched your video before I broke something! Thanks!
You're welcome :)
Video was helpful thank you! That corner when getting back on was B but this video help took me about 3 tries. Thank you for making this helpful video.
You're welcome :) There was an easier method in the top comment, maybe I should do an updated guide on this!
Thanks man this really helped this was the only video that actually looked accurate and just a question is it safe to use air in a can and spray like on the main part of the Xbox like the engine looking thing
Glad it helped dude! Yeah that's fine to get the dust off the board, just be careful with the can of air because if you're shaking it around it can release a water like substance if you shake it too much!
As long as it's air, you're all good :)
After I do this do I have to re sighn in to my account
Step one: buy gloves
Nice one Joey, easy to follow instructions, Xbox a lot quieter now. I even put the case back together first time.
Glad it helped Millett :) Thanks for leaving the feedback!
Iâve had my Xbox since I was 14 or so Iâm 21 now this is the first time I cleaned my Xbox and this helped so much
Good to hear pal :)
On the last piece take the front piece apart from the top piece and put the top piece on first then put the front piece back on the top piece
Thanks, this really helped, it was my first time ever cleaning a console. Can you do an Xbox 360 cleaning as well, please
More than happy to help :) I don't own a 360 currently, but I might buy one :D
I just tried this and hands down everything went smoothly. Thanks for the great video and i got the top case back on the first time. Im a automotive technician so that kind of helped make this easy for me had it done in less than a hour.
Jesus, you smashed it! Good stuff pal, feel like I could of gone into more detail about putting the top case back on, as it's quite difficult especially for people like myself who don't have the experience. Oh well we learn!
Thankyou for the kind words :)
Pls help me at 9:23 i cant put it back its so hörs how do i do it
@@JoeyDoesTech i kinda ripped it off Will the Xbox not function of i ripped the blue part 9:23 off.
@@elias2444 how bad is the rip if the only part that ripped was the blueish ribbon that went around the outside you could still make it work as long as the piece that goes connected isnt ripped. Just have the console facing up and make sure to push in the blue ribbon tab and once u see it in push in the small tab in you can use a really small flat head screwdriver to push in the tab
@@ej1jayk ok and Will it affect anything in my console
I think the alternative to the metal prying tool is that plastic guitar pick , unless it's something else. I own a tool kit that came with one
He threw fifa!!! Lol good job
Thank you very much Joey for yr great talk through on this.. When I put the case back together 1st time I made sure all other cables were connected well except for the fan, mainly forgot to check as it's under the hard drive. I had taken case apart 3 times now. I found taking off the front part of case easier to re connect the ribbon back, as I clip the front panel into both bottom and top last thing.. I did break one clip on the front right side.., it makes it easier to close nowđđđ
Ayee glad you got it sorted Michael. Thanks for watching :)
putting the final main case piece back on is easy if you put the case vertical on with the front facing down and let gravity help you force it in and you can push down from the back. takes just a few seconds to get it in.
Thanks for the video. It was very helpful. I did get the corner together on the first attempt, but I have an unfair advantage. I've overhauled gas turbine engines for almost 30 years.
Nice work! There is a video to make it a lot easier in the top comment đ Glad you got it done either way though!
Thatâs a very interesting career to have!
Hint: if you put a little bit of rubbing alcohol over the sticker you can use a knife to pull it up the warranty will be void but you get to keep the sticker on the xbox
It was so cool to take apart my console and it got a much needed cleaning. Unfortunately now my power button does not work but thatâs what a controller is for đ€.
Thank you for the awesome guide!
I love your optimism Griffin! Great job in getting it cleaned. Glad I could help (Sorry about the ribbon!)
Thank you so much. Had taken xbox apart and cleaned and put back together and power and sync button wouldnt work. Had the blue ribbon wire on backwards. Really helped out. Thanks
No worries, you're welcome :)
Absolutely helpful video man! Tip for putting the shell back on is removing the front cover from the shell. Place the front plate down first in position then attach the back portion of the shell followed by attaching shell to the front plate. Way easier that way! Thanks for the guide!
bless u in everyway
Youâre a lifesaver. I took like an hour trying to figure out how to push the shell back on but this method is way easier. Thank you.
I got up the mother board part since I didnt have the screw... so I had to put everything back on and the ribbon I got to say was the hardest for me but I will for sure use this video in the future when I got the right sized screw
Did you manage to give it a bit of a clean getting up to the motherboard part? If so good job :)
Thanks for watching and good luck when you attempt it again!
@@JoeyDoesTech Sadly no since i still dont have the screw but im looking into it. Sorry for the really late response
@@JoeyDoesTech I told myself ill just wait till i have the right sized screw driver
Well Made video! đ and very in depht too
Thanks Bart :D
Joey Does Tech no problem
Helped tremendously compared to other videos but had to watch another video for the ribbon cable to see it
Yeah if I had a chance to re do this I would of included better angles of both the ribbon cable at the front, and the clips at the end. Thankyou :)
So those Torx screws that you removed, are those the "security" ones with the little dimple/tit in the center of them? I can't quite tell from the video so I might as well ask before I start tearing my Xbox open. I have the proper Torx bit sizes but I just don't have any bits with "holes" in them to slide over that dimple in the screw.
Howdy :) the only ones I used was a Torx 8 and Torx 10. I had no issues with these screw bits whilst dissembling/resembling. I think I know the screws you are on about as I had one in the PS4 slim version, however I couldnt locate any of those on the Xbox. In fact, the Torx 8/10 still worked on that anyways :)
Good luck!
"Let me know if you get it the first time..." - thought to myself how hard could it be, turns out 30 minutes later when it finally popped in place that was the most satisfying and scary case to anything I've ever closed. So many emotions... đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Ayeee good job though! Happy you got it cleaned đ
this video shows you how to almost break your case. Take the front cover off first. You should never have to force a part the way he does. Skips a 10 second step to cause potential breaks. Just take the front cover off next time
@@darsinge3612 are you talking about putting the case back together afterwards? If so theres a comment with a much better video explaining how to do it that I've linked
Does it clean the disc receiver as well?
i need oppen him , but i dont know ...i dont need broken himđȘđ
thank you for video dude đđ
Did you manage to give it a good clean? :)
Glad to see you posting again. Good video.
Thank you :)
This help so much thank you my Xbox looks new and I got this Xbox back in 2016
Glad it helped :)
I have never cleaned it and I'm now scared to but I'm hoping if I get the courage to it will make it download stuff faster but idk, might bring it to a professional since I don't think I have those screw drivers
It's better to be safe than sorry Rizzo. If you're not confident in doing it, I would leave it to a professional.
geez i feel the last clip was the hardest, getting the top back on took me like 15 tries tho
Ayee you done it though :D
Thank you so much for video! It helped me so much. Plus your right putting the cover back on was a bit nerve racking lol!!!
You're very welcome :) Yeah the back cover is a pain...
I got it first try, I figured out for the ribbon part you can take apart the front piece from the top piece. Then you can just put the top on and the ribbon part is then only attached to the small piece. It makes everything so much easier in the end.đ
LIFESAVER
For those struggling to put the top case back, just remove the front case and put it first after that put the top panel, easy peasyđ
Facts :) There is a link in the top comment showing this as well :) Thanks!
Thanks!
Hmmn I'm surprised I haven't found a video of someone using a left blower vs opening it up. Ppl are adventurous
I didn't even think of it to be honest!
When putting it back together, after you get the front of it flush, do you go to the difficult side first, or do you get it last after you've gotten the other sides?
I make the front flush, then try and stretch the top over the clip at the front of the Xbox one if that's what you mean? It's alot easier to detach the top case and front panel, that way it just clips in :) (I've learnt that from the comments on this video!)
This helped a ton mate thanks. I thought I did it first time just now but no, it is a headache reconnecting the top housing haha
You're more than welcome my guy. Glad it helped :)
@@JoeyDoesTech it did indeed :) since I have you, do you perhaps have advice or videos on mounting said Xbox to the TV bracket? The bracket is rated to 40kg, total would be 16.5 (half). I want it as close to the TV as possible, I know unusual and such lol :)
Tip from JoshFi like a 1 year ago
"IF YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLE PUTTING THE TOP BACK ON:
take the front panel (the one with disk and power buttons) off from the top panel (one with the vent for the fan.) Put on the small front panel on FIRST and THEN put on the larger top panel. It may take some wiggling but it is FAR easier than just putting the whole thing on normally. HOPE THIS HELPED"
Thereâs a video in the description for this :)
Thank you. This comment really helped cause trying to put the whole thing on at the same time was very frustrating and this helped me not wanna throw my console. Had been fighting with it for an hour before reading this.
This is a great help but it seems like Microsoft has gone a long way to my cleaning the Xbox harder.
I haven't really gone to open and clean out my console (I just vacuum the outside vents every once in a while). Now after my game got super laggy and unresponsive, the console will turn on but the fan has no spinning sound and the screen is black. Is it too late to just open it up and clean out the dust? Is my console just broken now?
EDIT:
Also, once I open it up and blow the dust out using compressed air, would it be wise to use a vacuum to clean out any dust chunks? Or are the motherboards too delicate for a vacuum (no direct contact, just having a narrow-ended vacuum hose hovering an inch above the inner console.)?
Great vid! But I unfortunately broke the blue chord at the front but I cleaned it and it still works. THANK GOD
Thankyou :) glad it still works!
It's easier to just separate the top and front panel than to try and put the whole thing back on together. Got it on the first try that way.
Dude I love you. I was about to break stuff.
Omg thank you so much I was getting really worked up about it. Thx
I found an easier way to reassemble the top. detach the top from the front then attach the front to the console then line up the top onto the console and it slides on to the console so much easier. one try.
Thank you so much me and my dad were having so much trouble and I found your comment and did it easily đ
When you put your Xbox back together, and you have the black plate to put on the Xbox or the shell, you can separate it into two pieces by looking at the black plates inside where the blue ribbon is, and there are these little latches that you can take off which allows you to separate the front of the black plate and the top of the black plate which allows you to put the top on first and on the front on last which makes it 10 times easier putting the blue ribbon on and putting it back together hope this helps.
I love u dude u save me
Thank you for showing how to put the cover back on! I watched someone elseâs video showing how to get into it but they didnât show putting it back on⊠was about to lose my sh#*. Canât believe how hard I had to push to get that side front clip in
