[deadish xbox fan spins but no light]

Hello,

the cpu caps have to have a very low ESR (internal resistance) and of course at least he same voltage or more, and of course the same capacity. But when I recap an XBox or an Atari PSU or an Amiga 500/2000, I always  choose caps with the longest MTBF lifespan. Jackon has not the worst reputation, but they are far from the best. I you want to keep an electronic device for a long time, or if you want to sell it with a maximum of serenity, I would advice you to buy Panasonic FR Series.

Yes, i's a bit more expensive, but no so much if you also think to preserve earth by lengthening the lifespan of the product you repair. Last times, I started to also change output psu caps, because even if they are still goods if only speaking about µF, when I checked them about ESR, they were 0.7 ohm whereas the Panasonic were 0.06 ohm, so ten times less. You can look at this nice explaination, also exist in english:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_series_resistance

This is only an advice, you are really free to do what you want. You have to be really proud to have repaired a nive Xbox.

Congratulations,

bye

[Repairing XBox Debug Kit]

Good evening,

as nothing seems to be out of order, I would rather first prepare a new hdd. As this is a debug kit, you could use an unlocked disk only if you boot on the official recovery disk that permit to choose between debug bios and commercial bios.

Please look at: https://www.ogxbox.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1881-devkit-recovery-collection/
