Hey thanks for actually showing the motion to remove the clips, another video I found just popped it off and moved on without actually showing anything

[@fasttechvideo]

Yes that's what most videos do, they miss out on key details. That's why our videos are longer because I go through every step.

[@jeffcarbello9115]

most detailed video on the tube, thanks as helped me know how to get at the MB for a RGH mod

Thanks for a great and thorough video! I was happily surpriced to see that I had your toolkit already, I asked a friend of mine to order it for me about a year ago and I am so damn satisfied with it I thought about buying a second one and maybe the elecric screwdriver if you sell that. 🤘

[@fasttechvideo]

Yes we do sell an electric version here: www.fasttech.ca/tools/fasttech-pro-auto-kit Thanks for your comment and being a customer 😊

How do you disengage the clips??? Im doing exactly what you're doing and its not budging at all!

[@fasttechvideo]

Pull up on the trim as you disengage the clips as I did.

[@festro1000]

need to be careful using t8 drivers on the smaller screws, ended up stripping the heatsink screws fortunately t9 works with all those screws with a better fit.

[@fasttechvideo]

Yes a t9 would work better if the screws get stripped 😂

[@joythecat1950]

Do you need to put screws back into the Xbox 360. Or the whole shell? One night i took our family Xbox apart because it wasn't working but i saved some of the important parts like the fan, the disk drive and the little USB thing you plug into the back. Apparently i threw away all the plastic and i am missing a cord for the extra storage area. I really wish I did more research at that time when i was 14 but mistakes happen. Would it be better to just try to find a new Xbox 360 and plug in old parts or to try to find everything i need?

[@fasttechvideo]

If the manufacturer put a screw there its there for a reason so yes you should put back in all screws. I believe this is the part you are referring to: www.fasttech.ca/xbox-360-parts/xbox-360-s-hard-drive-bracket We also have the screw set in stock if you are missing screws: www.fasttech.ca/xbox-360-parts/xbox-360-s-motherboard-screw-set

[@PatsPerfectPlatinums]

I can't remove the hard drive caddy/bay plastic piece it seems like it'll break if I keep pulling

[@fasttechvideo]

There is a screw at the back of the console you have to remove at 18:14

I have a problem with my xbox 360 slim s, its always restart and beeping and I already remove the flexible cable on faceplate and still restart and beeping. Pls help me what's the problem and what component need to replace. Thanks

[@fasttechvideo]

Try replacing the RF module at the front

[@JustaWatcher769]

I'm convinced there's no tabs for the side pieces and I'm just being lied to

[@fasttechvideo]

They’re there. Ill be doing an even more detailed guide soon.

[@chrisramage4206]

Do soldering video please

[@fasttechvideo]

Will be redoing a better version of this video with soldering. Thanks for the comment

[@almfmf2932]

the controller can turn on the xbox but it will immediately start blinking and won't pair and havent had luck finding a different controller to purchase, could this be a console or controller issue?

[@fasttechvideo]

Try replacing the controller first but it could be an rf board or network chip issue both are replaceable

[@turtle6133]

I ordered a replacement motherboard/disk drive for my xbox360 slim from your website. They look very similar but the replacement is missing the 4pin connector for the hard drive, and the controller pair/sync button. I only see one option on your website.

[@fasttechvideo]

Thanks for your order. Controller pair and sync button is part of the faceplate www.fasttech.ca/xbox-360-parts/p/xbox-360-s-faceplate which connects to the RF module which is sold separately: www.fasttech.ca/xbox-360-parts/p/xbox-360-s-rf-module The 4 pin connector should be there. It might be in a different place but it should be there. Hope that helps

[@turtle6133]

I started email to the one listed on the website with pictures. Thanks

Question, if we dont have the right tools to undo the latches on the case, is there some sort of household item I could use to open it safely?

[@fasttechvideo]

No, I wouldn't recommend it

[@retro_gamer95]

@@fasttechvideo Ok 👍

[@chrisramage4206]

I had a 360 slim and the disc drive went out replaced it and then it would only play movies but not games then found out about the chip that reads the disc but I got a 360 slim again and a buddy gave it to me it will power on but it won't pull up the Xbox 360 screen just powers on but shows nothing on TV do you know what would possibly be the issue on it. I'm watching this video to check the components on the mother board check the fan for dust because I don't even hear the fan kicking on but it is but I feel no air coming out im doing the basic of what I learned over time but however what would cause my issue and what would help it and what would help with disc drive replacement to get games to read again and not just movies.

[@fasttechvideo]

Remove the hard drive and try again

[@gianmartinez4321]

How would you go about cleaning the disk tray, recently I started using my Xbox 360 s again. But starting today the disk tray would close than open within a few seconds.

[@fasttechvideo]

Could be a mechanical issue with the disc drive or a problem with the disc drive logic board.

[@jawll01110]

where is the controller receiver can i remove it from the xbox and use it for pc?

[@fasttechvideo]

No you cannot use it on your PC

Hey, I need to replace one of the resistors on my 360 Slim RF board, R67. Do you know the specs for this resistor? Is is a 0603? Is it 30 ohm? I read on a thread that I can just use a jumper from another resistor, is this correct? ANY info you can give would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

[@fasttechvideo]

I dont have much knowledge on this, sorry. We do sell the replacement part on your site though.

[@HastyRhombus760]

@@fasttechvideo I figured it out for my self. it is a 0402 30 ohm SMD chip resistor in case anyone else needs the info. I would rather fix something than just make more e-waste by replacing the part.
