NEVER Worry About Your XBOX's Corroded Capacitors Again

In the first episode of the OG v1.6 XBOX refurbishing series we'll be inspecting the capacitors within the XBOX console. We'll also be recapping the motherboard of the XBOX as well as testing the clock capacitor with our ESR tool.

Great video, but music very distracting, music volume is too high at times.

Odd. My 1.6 didn't need new caps. They all looked fine.

[@MidnightPodcastGaming]

Didn't the 1.6 revision fix this issue with the clock cap? :/

[@user-jq5qx9lf2c]

friend, please tell me... xbox 1.6 does not react at all to the power button, the power supply is in perfect order, I checked it on another board. The capacitors are not swollen, visually everything is in order. I tried to short-circuit the power supply white and black, still no startup. xbox was not chipped

What soldering gun model is that? i just bought my first OG xbox ever so now I am learning on all the things I need to do to them with the caps and drive bands etc. i just want to have all the right tools before getting into my xbox.

Bro,thank you for making this video. Im always over thinking things,but youve proved,that i dont need to. Thx. Need to buy new capacitors,but being new at tinkering,is there a "kit" which i can buy ? Yeah,im kinda stressed for doing it the wrong way.. im 44 and still scared to screw things up.. its painful.. but its the truth.. im a gamer at heart,but always scared to screw things up.. i hope you understand.

Hello, I have already replaced the power-on capacitors (6.3v 3300 uf) and the console still does not turn on.

So I need to recap my 1.6b CPU caps as they are bulging and one is leaking. Is there any reason I should also recap ALL the mobo caps as you did?
