@@texsconsoleshop4370 the fact that three people reported the same error code meaning different failures is a testament to how poorly documented the infamous Red Ring of Death is, despite being such a prevalent occurrence.
I love your videos so much because you show how things that are broken are often just malfunctioning because of a few problems that can be repaired. Especially in our modern society where we like to throw stuff away and buy something new, your work is so important. Great video as always!
This just goes to show that real repairs take time, knowledge, and some love and care. Also following the steps in the right order and not skipping any of them. Really really great work!
Yes, and the reality is that every repair has to be balanced against the price of replacement. Higher cost of living means more expensive workers and fewer things that can be fixed economically.
Knowlage? He misread the error code! I'm absolutely a massive fuckin nerd but like the actual code was 0102 which is a general GPU error for the console, and he read the primary error 3 rings as the secondary error code
@@wilkoak also just cause it will eventually stop working again doesn't mean he didnt fixed it. It just means the console old and it will of course eventually die.

@@NamLe-gr6xp Dreamscape, With a Spirit, and Trinity were the three most used songs and I swear it was all you heard on youtube for a few years back then XD
This is so nostalgic. I wish restoration videos like this were more common on RUclips back then, I don’t have a clue where our “broken” Xbox 360 went. It was probably just dirty!
I've never been this drawn into a restoration video. I still use my Xbox 360 that I've had for 15 years now and it's only ringed once, and now I see what's inside my beloved console. It's really nice to see someone taking such care and precautionary measures with a cleaning, especially with this specific console. Thanks for showing me this ♥️
My 360 is still going strong, it only Red Ringed once. Although, I have to beat it's meat sometimes to get disc rolling, but otherwise it works like a charm. 🤣
I never had an Xbox 360 RRoD on me, but seeing someone bring a console back from the dead like this really makes me want to learn how to repair things. It's just an amazing sight seeing a broken console be revived like this.
It's honestly not that hard when you do a little research. Chances are that someone else had the exact same problem in the past and documented or had help fixing it before, and there is record of it somewhere in the Internet.

Just got a tired old 360 like the one here and this helped a lot with getting it cracked open and cleaned up. really good demonstration on how to do it so that a first timer like me doesn't get lost. cheers man! keep up the quality content! :D (P.S. the plastic on mine was unsalvageable since the previous owner dropped it and had opened it up a few times before and snapped/weakened most of the connectors. finding a clean set of new plastic for this thing is tough lol.)
It doesn't matter. Those that do not take care of their toys, or otherwise misuse them, don't deserve to have them anyway. The real concern here is, all of that trash has to go somewhere, and that usually ends up being one countless landfills. This product was made to be broken, as are many. And the overwhelming vast majority of people do not possess the skills, tools or willpower required to maintain them. It is good practice, when buying something, to learn *_all_* about it and also purchase the tools that are necessary to maintain it. That is what I do.
You did pretty good on red dead redemption. TBR, It's incredible that you have the know how to actually repair stuff like this, you're what every dad dreams he could be.
I miss this console. So many hours socialising and getting lost in worlds. I made friends for life on this thing. Thank you for breathing life into the old gal.

Those original xboxes are still so beautiful in design (visually), I still remember the original menus on launch day, only the OGs remember the traumatising affects for RRoD
eh it's a give and take situation. sure you no longer have the convenience of just immediately playing, but most modern games simply have too much data to read off of disc only.
True it's unbelievable like take GTA v how when it first came out you had a install disc and play disc then the dlc came out. It just amazed how far gameing has actually come.
this type of fix is only temporary though most of time it will last anywhere from a few hours to a few months and will red ring again. a complete reball can sometimes fix it but that also usually isnt always the case.
@myaccountgotsuspended1431 he's right, this video is a fake. The xbox was NOT repaired, but it was cut to show that it was. I could tell it was swapped for another console near the end of the vid.
@@adamestrada7610 Most likely not. I have all the playstations and for some of them even 2 versions and i love these kinds of videos no matter the brand.

We have to remember that the ones who might have seen this as a console war back then are 15 years older today and probably don't have those feelings anymore. I don't know it was intentional on your part but the ps2 wasn't the competition for the 360. That was the PS3.

Mine hasn’t completed its journey yet, I got the R2D2 edition for Christmas when I was super young as a family gift, and it hasn’t died yet so now I know what to do when the time comes
For those thinking about doing this: reflowing is a temporary fix, it will just break again, so for your own consoles it’s fine but probably won’t be ethical to do this and sell or do it for a customer
Got my 360 in a very similar condition to this, minus the red ring, for 5 bucks. It was my first console restoration, and I'm still proud of it to this day. 360's are lots of fun to work with.
At first I'd be tempted call you crazy but I got to admit that pulling that off would give the strange allure of accomplishment. Getting open with breaking anything is a bit of an accomplishment.
@@GhostIy_Games Good enough for me. These are satisfying to see when I think of all the dead electronics we give up on because we don't know there's just dust inside. This was worse but thinking of the disc drive...
That brought me back. I used to do basic repairs on 360's. Hell, I used to buy red ringed systems, repair them and resell. Usually doubled my investment.
I remember getting this error code as a kid, logging on to dial-up, and finding out someone thought the Xbox 360 was made with a glue that screwed with the components, and there was no fixing it. Feels like yesterday that I had to mail it in to Microsoft, waited two months before they told me it was broken, and sent me a used replacement that was also broken. Those were the days...
I remember getting a rrod twice playing Oblivion. First time it was repaired and back to me in a week. Second time they send me a new one within four days. Was kind of interesting getting a new one after almost 3 years (extended rrod warranty). Though rrod was horrible I was pleasantly surprised with the service (in the Netherlands, but they were sent to Germany).
Solder, not glue. It melts too early and messes up the connections. Which is why the repair in the video won't last long, since no new sauter was applied; it was just reheated and some corrosion cleaned out.
They were like “Broken 360? Nahh I got this! Let me just completely take it apart a squirt some more thermal paste in there!” Then when it didn’t work after putting it back together they were like. “Welp, guess it’s really broken!”
This man literally repaired an artifact of my childhood. Ultimate respect 😤. Huh. The comments below seem to really care about my profile picture. Edited 9/23/2022.
I’m so thankful my original Xbox 360 I got in 2010 has never had the red ring and has never had any issues with any errors at all. I feel like I was one of the only people that didn’t get RROD. Also, watching you push that gray in at the end like that gave me heart palpitations lmao 😂
The xbox he fixed was a Jasper unit (no HDMI), odds are if you have a 2010 Xbox360, you have a Falcon GPU, which had resolved most of the issues, you will likely never see a RROD.
@@MrStiggy77 I love how backwards you are. The Jasper is the one that came out in 2008 and fixed RRoD. Late Falcons also had the same fix. The one he fixed was a Xenon which was the error-prone model.
@@MrStiggy77 it was the halo 360 elite with orange accents instead of the normal silver. Idk if that changes anything, but that’s good to know. If I ever needed one to look for post-2010 models!

I just restored one that a friend of mine gave me which was in subpar condition, this probably got recommended to me because i searched how to tear a 360 apart and i just cant stop staring at the result and how beautiful the console is all cleaned up.
I'm absolutely in LOVE with the sweeping camera angles. It's like a cityscape, and I definitely think you should do it for more of your repairs/projects
I can guarantee that no one at Microsoft put in this amount of work and care whenever anyone sent in their XBOX360s for repair. Probably because you can't give MILLIONS of faulty XBOX consoles special love and care. Fucking shitty ass Microsoft😑
I’m gonna be honest, watching a red ringed 360 be brought back to life is amazing to see

This is so nostalgic. I wish restoration videos like this were more common on RUclips back then, I don’t have a clue where our “broken” Xbox 360 went.
It was probably just dirty!
Dude, this is how i envision every 360 looks like. What a perfect specimen.

Bro I had like 20 discs only for the xbox
I have a 360 now. Got it near 2014ish so pretty new, and it doesnt freeze up at all. Everything stills runs smooth
I've never been this drawn into a restoration video. I still use my Xbox 360 that I've had for 15 years now and it's only ringed once, and now I see what's inside my beloved console. It's really nice to see someone taking such care and precautionary measures with a cleaning, especially with this specific console. Thanks for showing me this ♥️

Same here, but mine's still going strong with no rings. I tend to play the one a bit more than the 360, but it's still loads of fun.
@@doomguy974 My Xbox 360 is even older than the one in the video, and still looks like new, and works flawlessly.

My 360 is still going strong, it only Red Ringed once. Although, I have to beat it's meat sometimes to get disc rolling, but otherwise it works like a charm. 🤣
I never had an Xbox 360 RRoD on me, but seeing someone bring a console back from the dead like this really makes me want to learn how to repair things. It's just an amazing sight seeing a broken console be revived like this.

A LOT
99% of them for sure.

The vast majority.
It doesn't matter. Those that do not take care of their toys, or otherwise misuse them, don't deserve to have them anyway. The real concern here is, all of that trash has to go somewhere, and that usually ends up being one countless landfills. This product was made to be broken, as are many. And the overwhelming vast majority of people do not possess the skills, tools or willpower required to maintain them. It is good practice, when buying something, to learn *_all_* about it and also purchase the tools that are necessary to maintain it. That is what I do.

Love seeing things that are written off and then being restored and brought back to life again. Amazing job.

this type of fix is only temporary though most of time it will last anywhere from a few hours to a few months and will red ring again. a complete reball can sometimes fix it but that also usually isnt always the case.

We have to remember that the ones who might have seen this as a console war back then are 15 years older today and probably don't have those feelings anymore.

I still have 2 Xbox 360’S that didn’t R.I.P.
For those thinking about doing this: reflowing is a temporary fix, it will just break again, so for your own consoles it’s fine but probably won’t be ethical to do this and sell or do it for a customer
Got my 360 in a very similar condition to this, minus the red ring, for 5 bucks. It was my first console restoration, and I'm still proud of it to this day. 360's are lots of fun to work with.

I remember getting this error code as a kid, logging on to dial-up, and finding out someone thought the Xbox 360 was made with a glue that screwed with the components, and there was no fixing it. Feels like yesterday that I had to mail it in to Microsoft, waited two months before they told me it was broken, and sent me a used replacement that was also broken. Those were the days...
I remember getting a rrod twice playing Oblivion. First time it was repaired and back to me in a week. Second time they send me a new one within four days. Was kind of interesting getting a new one after almost 3 years (extended rrod warranty). Though rrod was horrible I was pleasantly surprised with the service (in the Netherlands, but they were sent to Germany).
Solder, not glue. It melts too early and messes up the connections. Which is why the repair in the video won't last long, since no new sauter was applied; it was just reheated and some corrosion cleaned out.
I went through that 4 times and when my 5th console broke I switched to PlayStation and never looked back.
@@trunks2d227 if you think Playstation doesn’t have any console bricking issues, you’re dead wrong ☠️
