This Xbox 360 console was sent to me for free to do a video by a subscriber from Egypt.
Restoring the Xbox 360 slim gears of war 3 limited edition 0003 Restoration & Repair - ASMR
Custom designed with artwork inspired by Gears of War 3
In this instance it was caused by a blown MOSFET
"The Xbox 360 motherboard takes in 12V from the "brick" then converts it down to more useful voltages that the chips can use. Most notably, 5V, 3.3V, and 1.8V. This is done via DC-DC switching converters.
These converters use a pair of MOSFETS (high current transistors) to switch a supply line very rapidly between 12V and ground, to get an "average" voltage of somewhere in between, such as 5V. A controller chip controls the MOSFETS to regulate an exact voltage. The output of these 'FETs then goes through a coil to clean it up, and it's then smoothed up more by some capacitors and such.
Symptoms of failure:
-Xbox 360 turns on and red lights IMMEDIATELY (not after a few seconds like on some other failures, such as the dreaded 0102). No picture on the screen.
-Fan spins for a moment and stops again, and PSU may show red or orange light.
-After it shows the red lights, the secondary error code will be 0002 or 0003.
This video shows you everything you need to know about taking apart your Xbox 360. If you need to replace the fan or the disk drive this video will show you how to get inside and disassemble your system. Since this system isn't the newest on the market anymore, it's cheaper to replace the parts yourself than it is to send them in for repairs.
