Introduction

Passez à l'étape 1

The Xbox 360 is an iconic console, but as time passes the disc tray often stops functioning properly. When this happens we lose the ability to play any desired game. This guide demonstrates how to carefully disassemble the Xbox 360, and replace the drive belt inside the optical drive, so you can go back to enjoying those games. Please use the tools gently, so the Xbox 360 won't get scratched and pieces won't tear off.

Don't forget to fully disconnect your Xbox 360 before beginning the guide. Lastly, here is a link for Screwdriver Best Practices that can help.

I CANNOT get past step six. No matter how hard I pry, the pieces are not coming apart. I have pressed and twisted my screwdriver so much that it is damaging the plastic around it yet the pieces still stay together. What do I do?

Spencer Fantastic - Réponse

Gotta buy the available 360 opener tool, its dirt cheap on aliexpress. Attempting via a screwdriver will just trash your case and get you nowhere.

Bootleg Joe (Snapman) -

When I get to step 11, there is literally no opening to be able to spin the wheel manually to open it and replace the band. Step 12 shows 2 rectangular openings in the front of the DVD drive, mine is solid plastic with no open gaps. There must be different types of drives used. Right now I cannot get to the belt to replace it. Anyone see this other type of drive? Any thoughts?
