    • Use a pair of tweezers to pull the power supply cable straight out to disconnect the power supply unit from the motherboard.

    • Depending on the age of your console, this cable might be very firmly connected. If it feels stuck, don't pull on the cables themselves with much force.

    • Use your fingers to grab the white connector head, and wiggle or "walk" the connector out of its socket to disconnect it.

    • In extreme cases, you might need to use needle nose pliers to get a good grip on the connector.

    • Go slow: pulling on the cables themselves might rip them out of the connector.
