if you still have the feet use those..the 2 washers is a rough estimate of the spacer on the legs..if you use the actual legs and thread them and add a nut to the underside you then remove the xclamps but with the exact spacing as it should be and also you can replace the 8 small black screws..that is the method i use for them all..i'd rather use as much of M$ hardware as i can as it presicion engineering measured to nanometers instead of a rough guess of 2 washers..




also when heatgunning a no audio/video 360 and one with hdmi and the small hanna chip instead of the larger one with the legs be sure to heatgun specificaly around that small chip as well as the gpu..

i have had 100% success rate with no video/audio using threading of legs and also heatgunning the hanna/gpu

all you need is nuts and thermal paste..

 i do like the rethreading of the original things, good idea.


i know this sounds kinda dumb, you might wanna check your video cable, make sure its in the right mode, and that its connected and not broke anywhere.  are you atleast getting the 4 lights circling around on the console when it powers on??

Ive just completed a hydrid xclamp fix on a xenon after also doing the heatgun trick before hand to try and reflow, however after adjusting screws in the base for about an hour Ive come to the point where its going to get chucked out the window any second. Have any of you luvly people here on xbox scene got any other ideas for me to try. There is power going to the board the dvd tray will eject but nothing for rings of any colour no sound no video, however I was able to connect a controller which now switches the machine on via the middle button but does not regisiter with a ring on the console, the controller just flashes all four rings. If anyone could shed some light on this I would be most grateful thanks.

I can shed some light on this:
You screwed up something.

My guess is the heat gun reflow- those usually dont go well for the vast majority of people that attempt it...

Don't waste any more time on it, it is gone- (assuming you have all of the cables connected properly and such)


But on the upside- Now you have a dedicated power supply for your firmware flashes!

i have to agree... i had a 360 w/no video and im pretty sure that i used the heatgun a little too long... cuz now that 360 DOESN'T turn on anymore and now it is nailed to my wall right next to an xbox1 mobo   there like trophies.. and a PS3 even if broken would NEVER be good enough for my wall!... F SONY in the A!

Yep I tried this also last night to no avail, after reading some of the other posts Im beginning to think Im out of luck on this one, however Im gonna give this another go this morning then heatgun again in the hana chip area then Im gonna bake the boy in the oven LMAO, will let you know how I get on. Thanks hetster for your replies its much appreciated I will let you know how I get on.

[hetster]

if your gunna oven bake it then make sure you have really good insulation..use bubblewrap and a towel and plenty of gaffa tape over the capacitors and bake at 240 degrees
