Xbox 360 Red Ring of Death Fix Kit

Введение

Use this guide to install iFixit's Red Ring of Death Fix Kit.

Reflowing the motherboard after completing Step 48 of this guide (before you install the RROD fix kit) both provides a higher chance of success in fixing red ring failures and also safeguards against future failures.

    • The X-clamps are not reused when installing the red ring of death fix kit.

    • Now that the heat sinks are off both processors, use a plastic spudger to remove all of the old thermal paste residue from the faces of both processors and the inner faces of the heat sinks.

    • Work slowly as you remove the old residue, as many sensitive components are soldered near the processors. If damaged, you may need a whole new motherboard

    • It is best to use a solvent such as ArctiClean to dissolve the old thermal paste and remove all residue before applying new paste. Alternatively, you can use a mild solvent such as a high purity rubbing alcohol.

    • You can also use many classic dry-deoxidating sprays: spray it on the paste then rub it; you will remove the paste almost effortlessly and with no residues.

    • Now is also a good time to clean any dust out from between the fins of both heat sinks.

    • After cleaning, the mating faces of the heat sinks and the processors should look as shown.

    • Before proceeding any further, now is the perfect time to reflow the solder on the motherboard. Reflowing provides a higher chance of success in fixing red ring failures and is not hard to accomplish. All that is required is a heat gun. We have a guide that makes it easy.

    • Flip the motherboard over.

    • If your motherboard does not have RAM chips on its underside like the board pictured, skip this step.

    • Peel off the four silicone thermal pads stuck to the RAM chips on the bottom of the board.

    • Apply a thin layer of thermal paste to the areas highlighted in red.

    • If you have never applied thermal paste, we have a guide that makes it easy.

    • After applying thermal paste to the processors, it is time to reattach the heat sinks one at a time. In our case, we attached the CPU heat sink first.

    • This step is performed with the motherboard out of the chassis.

    • Insert a machine screw through each of the four holes around the CPU heat sink, with their heads on the back side of the board. While you hold the screws in place, sandwich the nylon washer between the motherboard and metal washer.

    • The order of the washers is important. Do not put the metal washer on first.

    • When attaching the CPU heat sink, be sure the fins are aligned with the air flow from the fans (as seen in the third picture). Having the flat side of the fins perpendicular to the air flow will cause your Xbox 360 to overheat.

    • Using the large flathead screwdriver bit, tighten the screws into the CPU heat sink. First lightly tighten the four screws in an X-shaped pattern as seen in the second picture, then follow the same X-shaped sequence to fasten the screws down.

    • Don't be afraid of a bit of tension - the pressure between the heat sinks and processors caused by sufficiently tightened screws is needed to retain the heatsinks.

    • Repeat the same process to attach your GPU heat sink.

    • Use the edge of your small flathead screwdriver or another thin and sharp object to carefully pull up a corner of the blue or white plastic sheet covering the adhesive on the bottom of both heat sinks.

    • Be careful not to wrinkle or peel up the adhesive in the process.

    • Peel the protective sheets off the adhesive on both heat sinks.

    • Lightly clean the surface of the two chips highlighted in red on the first picture.

    • Be sure to position the heat sinks correctly before you stick them down, as the adhesive is extremely strong and sensitive to being repositioned.

    • Stick the two heat sinks down against the top of the two chips highlighted in red on the first picture, being sure the fins are aligned as seen in the second picture.

    • When reinstalling the optical drive, be sure both the power and SATA cables do not interfere with the heat sink attached closest to their sockets on the motherboard.

    • If your motherboard lacks RAM chips on its bottom face, it is not necessary to apply thermal pads.

I didn't have a heat gun so I disabled the fan and left the 360 on for 1/2 hour to heat up the weak solder points and then let it cool down for 1/2 hour before re-assembling the 360. This gave me all green lights.

ChasCam580 - Ответить

yea but it goes in standby after some time and it dont heat up anymore, how did u do that?

Simone Abbona -

Unfortunately this repair only lasted a few months on my xbox, going to try it again and hope for better results.

zima539 - Ответить

When you take it apart, I recommend following our reflow guide before installing the RROD fix kit. I recently did this to an X360 that the RROD kit fixed only momentarily and afterwards it worked good as new.

Andrew Bookholt -

I did the relowing of the motherboard this weekend, hopefully it lasts longer than the previous repair.
