  • Xbox One X No Signal HDMI Repair - If you're not getting a signal with your Xbox One X two of the most common causes are either a bad hard drive or an HDMI problem. In this video I show you how to check both issues and how to repair an HDMI problem.

    About This Video: There's no signal from this Xbox One X so I take it apart and first check that the hard drive is working correctly. When that doesn't fix the problem I continue taking it apart to get the motherboard out so I can check the various HDMI components. I then replace the main HDMI (retimer) chip and then put everything back together to see if it works!

      probably by the looks of things, add flux, use hot air station to heat the chip. delicately wriggle it until it is loose. remove it and replace with the replacement. wriggle that into place nicely. add more flux and hot air and then you should be done.

Changhed back to known working original 1TB Seagate HDD and still no output. Scary thing? The console has been used a handful of times since purchase. I won't have the skills to fix based on the miniature nature of the chip on the motherboard. Did you buy a replacement chip or source from another console?

      @@Josh.Davidson the red ring of death happens because of bad thermal dissipation. Modern days a low temp solder is used and hte360 heted above the melt point of the solder used.

    • @Josh.Davidson
      @Josh.Davidson 3 года назад +2

      @@MolecularMindz No, that's completely and utterly false. Even if you take off the heatsink, the chip will reach roughly 95-100C (varies by revision), then enters the EC_THERMAL state. In this state, the fans run at max and the chips are held in reset (means they're not active, it's like the system is off). 2 red lights (not 3) flash on the front for phats, and the center light flashes red for slims, and the power button won't shut it off. Once it gets low enough, it will turn the fans off and wait for the user to restart it.
      The temps never exceed that maximum, such is impossible. The solder melt temps of leaded is 183Cish, and the lead-free used on the 360 needs 217Cish. So not anywhere NEAR hot enough to melt it. That's all a giant myth.
      In addition, the fans are drive dynamically by the SMC, not like the fixed fan curve of a PC, so the system has no thermal issues. It's one of the worst myths in the whole gaming industry and was created by people with no technical or engineering knowledge.
      Lastly, the reason the towel trick temporary revives it is not because it melts solder. Because as I said that's impossible, it would shut down first. It's because the problem is the defective flip chip design in the GPU. Same problem many laptops had back then. Heat is known to fix defective flip chips for a very short period of time because is messes with the underfill and c4 bumps.
      And also the Xenon CPU heats up far faster than the Xenos GPU even with the far bigger heatsink, in the original 90nm design on the units that failed. But yet the CPU is almost never failed.

    Thanks for the video, man. My wife's console had this no signal issue. She took into a shop and they tried a different hard drive and replaced the HDMI ports. I think they tried something else but I can't remember what it was. I found your video on this and thought it was great, so I went back to the shop and had them replace that retiming chip. However this didn't fix my issue. I'm wondering if they used the right chip as they game me a different price than what I found online. I also had to wait a couple of weeks for them to get it. The chip that they installed does not appear to be clearly marked like the original. Anyway, is there any other possible issue other than the HDMI port, a different hard drive or this retiming chip that you can think of? Thanks in advance.

    Damn, I just got this issue today. I used the Xbox yesterday just fine, and I usually dust and keep my stuff clean, so I don't have any idea of how this happened. Unfortunately, mine is outside warranty, and they're asking $250 to fix it, or replace it with a refurb. Instant hell no to that, glad I found your video, cause I might as well try fixing it myself now. My console turns on and I'm able to stream it to PC and boot up what ever I want to use as usual. With that said, I'm guessing it's HDMI and have a lot of work ahead of me.

    Am I right in saying he just used liquid flux and a heat gun to remove and replace the timer chip? So no actual soldering is required? Just keep the heat on the leftover solder and the flux will hold it in place until the new chip is placed on the board?

I would like to ask you a question, if there is the possibility that you would share an information or make a video of the components that surround the tdp158 since I bought an xbox one x with the same problem but it is seen that they used a lot of air and flew the resistors and capacitors that surround. the missing components are c17, c18, c20, c50, c43, c44, c45, c56. It would be very helpful if you shared it.

    I would rather learn my self.
    What is the liquid or gel, that you placed on the microchip? Is that to remove the seal and do place a different gel to create a new seal when you replace the chip? That was basically the only part I didn't understand. And it seems pretty important.

    Quick Tip put the video speed at 0.25x and pause it to see which ones to take apart as he does you can use a T10 on all the scews except the 4 heatsink screws you're going to want to use a T8. You can get a full set of the T5 - T20 and a - 2.5 for $10 at walmart Some screws felt like a T10 i had to turn hard but if you got a drill and can get the T10 and 8 bits it will save you time. Took me 2 hours just to get the screws out snd write down and map where they go. if you have built or had to replace a part on a pc taking the one x apart should be pretty easy.
