Introduction

I am going to show you how to tear apart an xbox with simple tools.

Ce dont vous avez besoin

Cette vue éclatée n'est pas un tutoriel de réparation. Pour réparer votre Xbox 360, utilisez notre manuel de réparation.

  1. Xbox 360 Teardown, Hard drive: étape 1, image 1 de 1

    • Here you would usually have a hard drive, my xbox does not. To remove it you push down the button and lift it out

    Modifier

    • You can put a flat head screw driver in between the plastic as shown and gently pry open the front

    • You can alternatively grab inside the USB port and pull the cover off

    Modifier

  3. Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the bottom panel: étape 3, image 1 de 3 Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the bottom panel: étape 3, image 2 de 3 Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the bottom panel: étape 3, image 3 de 3

    • Use a small tool to stick in and push these pins

    • Be sure to keep pressure pulling outwards for this to come out easily

    • Make sure that you pop out the pins on both sides

    Modifier

  4. Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the top plate: étape 4, image 1 de 3 Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the top plate: étape 4, image 2 de 3 Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the top plate: étape 4, image 3 de 3

    • Same as the bottom plate you want to push in the buttons holding this in

    • Note that there are six buttons holding this together in total so it is ok to accidentally break 1 or 2

    Modifier

  5. Xbox 360 Teardown, The front case: étape 5, image 1 de 2 Xbox 360 Teardown, The front case: étape 5, image 2 de 2

    • You have to evenly disconnect all four of these connectors holding it together

    • I used flat head screw driver bits to hold the connectors open

    • You have to remove a warranty sticker to open the console. Be warned, this will void your warranty.

    Modifier

  7. Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the back of the casing: étape 6, image 1 de 3 Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the back of the casing: étape 6, image 2 de 3 Xbox 360 Teardown, Removing the back of the casing: étape 6, image 3 de 3

    • You must push in these buttons (7 in total)

    • It is nearly impossible to not mess up the plastic using a screwdriver, i would recommend using an x-acto knife

    • This was one of the harder steps, you must push the button in until it clicks and then go farther still

    • Make sure you keep pressure applied outwards so that the locks do not re-engage

    Modifier

    Why is the hardest step on this teardown the only step without a picture of the someone showing the proper way to unclip the back of the case?!

    Sam Love - Réponse

    I would say that is likely because of how difficult it would be to hold it open and take a picture without it closing itself back up.

    Michael - Réponse

    I've heard there is a special tool for this if so, does anyone know if it is a better option?

Please comment if you have any suggestions or help so that I can be sure to update this, or do a better job in the future.

Your method is very offensive and not recommended when you wont damage the case of your Xbox 360.

TheSupport - Réponse

Up yours it obviously helped 3.1 thousand people. Being as you have zero guides and close to no reputation, maybe you should try it. But your input is valued, so thank you.

Michael -

$@$*-hot reply - like it!!!

lawsewilliams - Réponse

this was helpful

tostypinapple - Réponse

To the person who said this method is offensive... okay? It literally is an ORIGINAL 360 body shell, I started repairing 360's back when the RROD was a big thing, and on base (I grew up as an Airforce Brat) we literally called it a suicide break anytime one had to be disassembled. Yeah there might be simpler prettier solutions but they take more time and finesse to achieve.

thank you Michael

Does diassembling this machine for the purpose of having fun while doing it a good idea?
I don't play any consoles and have one that's been sitting for 10+ years. Also, would any parts be of use for something else?

THanks

I think the majority of electronics I tear apart is just for fun and maybe to fix something and learn along the way. As long as you're comfortable with working with electronics and aren't afraid of breaking it, I'd see it as a perfect opportunity to learn about what's inside hands on. As far as repurposing parts I'm not sure other than if you needed the fan and heat sinks for something else.

I loved the one spicey comment. Your response was hilarious as well. I've used this guide before and haven't damaged anything. That was on my first repair as well. I'm back again to take a look as I repair my second 360 that belongs to my brother. I guess the thing just doesn't work at all right now and I just know it needs a cleaning, paste and possible disc drive maintenance so I'm stoked to crack that bad boy open. Have a good one!

Christopher Curtis - Réponse

On a side note I had a 360 that wouldn't read disks anymore and found online that there are two potentiometers in the disk drive and I upped one of those and it works perfect now, in case that helps you or anyone else reading. I'm sure it's not good for it, but the drive dying sooner is better than not reading at all to me

Michael -

Great guide Michael, Thanks a lot, and a wonderful response

to the trumpet who was offended by the potential damage to the casing. It made me laugh. Thanks for both
