How To Get Rid Of The Blinking Green Light
« on: July 28, 2010, 05:18:00 PM »

hi

When you remove the dvd drive on a jtagged console, the center green light in the front of the console starts blinking. Does anyone know how to get rid of this? Because I want to use the drive in another console but the blinking light is pretty annoying. So I'm even thinking of buying another dvd drive just for that  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)  Thanks in advance

Jump pins 4 and 6 together to stop the light from blinking. Here is a pic I got from XBH for reference.

I meant that you should not mind the fact that I edited my post as it was for a stupid reason, the method I posted should work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
